EDUCATION CONTROL.
• , BRIXTON ROAD COMMITTEE'S VIEWS. The Brixton Road school committee at its monthly meeting this week, discussed matters arising out of the recess education committee's report, and while it is in accord with certain necessary reforms, the committee thinks that it would be against the interest and progress of education in New Zealand to curtail the powers of education boards. It was uanimously resolved "That by co-operation of school committees and householders this committee would vigorously oppose the proposed movement of the recess education committee in the direction of centralising much of the power in Wellington, thereby depriving district education boards and school committees generally of the valuable services voluntarily rendered by its members, and being further of opinion that centralisation of control will seriously retard the progress of education, and its administration and therefore view with disfavour any change from the present system of administration."
