MOBE ISTSPECTOES. (By Telegraph —i-'iesa Association.) A UCKLAN D, Thursday. The Minister for Education (Wir James l’arr) announced that he had obtained authority for the appointment of two additional inspectors of secondarv schools. These officers, in addition to the present inspectors, will be able to give a thorough annual iu.'pection ol each secondary school, instead of a biennial one as at urvie.'.-t. they wid also, in association with the primal 1 ) school inspectors, inspect the secondary departments of district high schools. This will bring the district high schools more closely in touch with general secondary education and will enable the inspectors to classify teachers under olie secondary school classification scheme.
