To Amalgamate Teachers' Societies
DUNEDIN, Fri. <P,A.) are being made by delegates to next week’.s annual meeting of the New Zealand Educational Institute concerning the possibility of obtaining a Royal charter for a proposed Royal Society of Teachers.
Such a society would entail amalgamation of the three teachers' organisations—the Educational Institute, which is an association of primary school teachers, and the associations of secondary teachers and technical high school teachers.
A meeting of representatives of these three organisations will be hold in Dunedin next week to discuss the prouosal.
As it would mean each association giving up its individual identity, members of the Educational Institute, which has now been in existence tor 56 years, consider that nothing less than a Royal society would prove an acceptable form of amalgamation.
