CLOSING OF SCHOOLS
Sir, —It is good to see that the Education Department is not a party to the idea that teachers should -.hold stop-work meetings to discuss their conditions of work. It appears also that some Education Boards are of a similar mind. The Canterbury Board and the Educational Institute seem determined to follow a policy which has become almost normal practice in this country during the last decade or so; and your leading article in protest should cause those who have some example for the rising generation to think before it is too late. Surely it is ridiculous that teachers, who can hold afternoon and evening meetings, should find it necessary to act in the unsocial manner they have so unhappily chosen.—Yours, etc., DAY’S WORK, DAY’S PAY. June 24, 1953.
