TELEVISION IN SCHOOLS
Board Defers Discussion The headmaster of Mairehau High School (Mr A. B. Ryan) is to discuss with his staff the question of educational television programmes for schools. At yesterday's meeting of the school’s board of governors, Mr W. J. Cartwright said the' Christchurch Secondary Schools’ Council had decided to approach the New Zealand Broadcasting Corporation on the possible inauguration of such programmes if member schools agree. After Mr Ryan had indicated that he would like the opportunity of discussing the matter with his staff, the members agreed to defer any discussion until the next meeting. Resignations were received from Mr B. W. Fifield and Miss M. G. Richardson. Mr Fifield is leaving to take up a lectureship in social studies at the Christchurch Teachers’ College. Miss Richardson will travel overseas. Mr C. T. Ford was re-elected chairman and Mr Cartwright, deputy-chairman. The board received advice from the Department of Education approving grants of £lOO for orchestral instruments. £5O for books and £lO for assembly hall furniture.
