TEACHERS’ SALARIES.
THE COMMISSION’S REPORT. CONDEMNED BY THE AUCKLAND BOARD. By Telegraph—Press Association. Auckland, last night. The report of the Royal Commission recently set up for investigating the question of stalling and teachers’ salaries was discussed at a meeting of the Auckland Education Board. While admitting that tho report contained many recommendations the adoption of which would be in the best interests of teachers, the members, almost without exception, condemned the scale of salaries drawn up for teachers of small schools in country districts as inadequate, and opposed tho proposal to fix maximum salaries for firstassistant female teachers on the same level as for male first-assistants. The opinion was also generally expressed tha’t thero was too great a disparity between the salaries for first-assistants, both male and female, and the remaining assistants. The members decided that the Chairman and Secretary should draw up a remonstrance covering the recommendations on which the Board disagreed with the report of the Commission, the same to be forwarded to the Minister for Education.
