S ummary . The probationary year's teaching experiences of untrained and trained graduate teachers, who left the same university at approximately the same time, were compared. This was done by means of questionnaires returned by the teachers themselves and the Heads of their schools. The untrained graduates' replies were matched for sex and academic qualifications with replies received from the trained graduates. Certain areas of experience of the two groups were then compared. Few concessions seem to have been made by the schools for lack of training of their new graduate teachers and the untrained group proved generally to be the less satisfactory group from the schools' point of view.
