High or Low approach ?

High Approach or Low Approach ?
It would seem from the narrative in 1.3.6 onwards, that this expression refers to whether the practice is terminated early or late on the approach, as opposed to completing the exercise with perhaps a runway touchdown.

Explanatory footnote 11 at the bottom of page 1.3 -2 quotes Valley Flying Orders as "....if a PFL is not planned to touch-and-go, a high approach should be initiated by 300 ft QFE. .."

Question -

Is 'initiated' a typo for 'terminated' ? Or are there some other words missing from Note 11 ?
For instance '... if a PFL is not planned to touch-and-go, a go-around from a high approach should be initiated by 300 ft QFE ...'
Or is the FOB quote actually correct ?
