Disturbed Children
Sir,—One remit passed at the annual conference of the New Zealand Educational Institute asks for the setting up in all main centres of residential and day schools in which children of the type under discussion could be properly cared for. If this remit is turned down by the Education Department, as it probably will be on the usual reliable grounds of being not necessary or impracticable or too expensive, we will know that, as of old, the real power in nrimarv education lies not with 13,000 teachers but with the director and some nameless Treasury officials who must be presumed to be neither taxpayers nor parents. —Yours, etc, J. F. WILLIAMS. June 20, 1966.
