(By Telegraph.— Pros Anodatlon.)
WELLINGTON, Tuesday.
The Director of Education, Mr. T. B. Strong, informed the annual conference of the New Zealand Educational Institute that, as a result of the recent debate on the question of biennial grading between the executive of the institute and the Director of Education and chief inspector, the Department had decided to abandon the proposal in the meantime and to endeavour to merge it in a larger scheme that would be more certain to effect the reforms desired!
"The Department has no intention of abandoning the practice of grading teachers for efficiency," wrote Mr. Strong, "but may be able to evolve a scheme or schemes whereby the best features of the grading system may be retained and any weaknesses removed."
