Notes on Education by Patrick Pearse

Some notes about education in the hand of Patrick Pearse. The notes are undated but were possibly prepared a talk on the subject. The notes conclude with Pearse's transcription of a widely-known poem on public schooling which reads:
‘Ram it in, cram it in

What are children made for?
Push it in, crush it in,
What are teachers paid for?’
