HOME AND SCHOOL
NEED FOR CO-OPERATION MODERN EDUCATION (TVr Press Axsocintion.) AUCKLAND, last night. With audiences at the principal lectures exceeding 1000, keen interest was again manifest in the lectures and group studies of the regional conference of the New Education Fellowship. A further nine addresses delivered by distinguished overseas authorities during the day revealed the outlook of modern educational science on current problems, the subjects ranging
from vexed questions of religious instruction to the wide ramifications of specialised training and overseas procedure. Characteristic of almost all the lectures was the emphasis which the speakers laid on the necessity for close co-operation between home and school. The importance of home influence was repeatedly emphasised, and it was shown that in the young child neither the parent nor the teacher could shoulder the responsibility for his development alone. From the standpoint of the modern educationist, the procedure followed in New Zealand was the subject of occasional criticism.
