TEACHERS’ CERTIFICATES
OTAGO EDUCATION BOARD’S PROTEST. (Per Press Association.) Dunedin. March 20. At a mooting of the Otago Education Board to-day it was decided that while fully appreciating the aim of the Department under the new regulations for teachers’ certificates, the Board points out that bringing into immediate operation of the regulations would impose a hardship on candidates who have been engaged on preparation for examination under the old regulations, and suggests that the new regulations he not enforced on the teachers who have already partially completed their present course. The Board also decided to urge that the regulations be relaxed to meet the special circumstances of uncertificated teachers in the service who are seeking to obtain their certificates, the Board being strongly of opinion that the requirement to take eleven subjects in one year imposes too great a strain on those engaged teaching all day.
