EDUCATION CHANGES
AUCKLAND EXPERTS CAUTIOUS.
Auckland, July 16. Auckland educationalists are reluctant to express opinions on the select committee’s report on education until they have studied it. The chairman of the Auckland Education Board said it appeared that the new education boards proposed would be only bodies for a senior inspector to consult. He approved of the proposal to make the leaving age 15. As regards administration he merely stated that the Auckland board’s costs amounted to less than per cent, of the income.
Mr. King, chairman of the Technical College, expressed doubt if the division of administration would promote local interest. He was not in favour of intermediate schools.
Representatives of school committees attach much importance to the recommendation of increased capitation grants.
