In dealing with the different aspects, due reference is made to legislation and the conditions that existed in South West Africa and which influenced the development of education

In conclusion the history of education is summarised in three periods, viz., a period of orientation and establishment (1922-1934), a period of professional and educational approach to education (1935-1948), and finally a period of rapid development, systematic enquiry into educational matters and a thorough planning for future development

The following aspects are dealt with: central and local control in education; the establishment and maintenance of schools and colleges; the general administration in schools: the teaching staff, including a general survey of the conditions of service of teachers; problems concerning the medium of instruction and the study of languages; compulsory education; curricula and syllabi; the inspection of schools: examinations and the promotion of pupils; auxiliary services in education, e. g. medical inspection of pupils, psychological and guidance services; hostels; continuation courses and adult education
