Clause Resented
TEACHERS’ CODE OF CONDUCT. Per Press Association. CHRISTCHURCH, Sept. 21. Described as an Insult, a clause in the teachers’ code of conduct was resented by members of the Canterbury Education Board this morning. _ The clause, which conies into operation on January 1 next, is that under which the executive of the New Zealand Educational Institute declares it to be unprofessional for any teacher to apply for and accept a position from which in the judgement of the executive a member has been unjustly dismissed. On the motion of Mr. E. Wild' the board unanimously carried a motion asking the institute to reconsider the clause with a view to its withdrawal. Another member said he felt they all agreed that the attitude of tho teachers was arrogant, as defined in the Clause. Ho thought that incompetent teachers had been the causo of the clause, by which they hoped to secure their positions to an even greater degree. The institute was becoming stronger, and had to be resisted on the question referred to. »
