A few months ago tho_ Taranaki Educa.tion Board suddenly realised that the proportion of uncortificated teachers in its employ was larger than it should be. These teachers were circularised and their attention drawn to their lack of certificates. But only half of them bestirred themselves to sit at the last examinations. Of tho 40 uncertificated teachers under the board, tho Herald mentions that 18 failed to . onfcer for the examinations, and thrco others entered but did not present themselves for examination.
