No. I.—EXTEACT FEOM THE EEPOET OF THE MINISTEE OF EDUCATION. PRIMARY EDUCATION. Number of Public Schools. (Tables Al and 83.) The number of public schools open at the end of 1920 was 2,437, as compared with 2,400 in 1919. In the following table the schools are classified according to the yearly average attendance, and the total number of children at the schools in each grade is shown:—

Total, 1920 .. .. .. .. .. 2,437 schools. „ 1919 2,400 Increase .. .. .. .. 37 „ For the number of schools in each education district classified according to grade, reference should be made to Table Al. It will be observed that of 2,437 schools, 1,997 were in Grades 0-lIIa, having average attendances between 1 and 80, and of these 880 had averages ranging from 1 to 20. Of 181,704 children, 26,506 are in sole-teacher schools with averages between 1 and 35, and 84,358 children are in schools with an average number of pupils of more than 280. Public-school Buildings. The following table shows the growth of expenditure, &c, in connection with public-school buildings for the last five years : —

On the Ist April last the commitments—that is, special grants approved but unclaimed by Education Boards —amounted to £409,409. Most of the works for which grants have been approved are now well under way. The high cost of erecting schools was considered by a conference of Education Board representatives in January, and all the evidence went to show that where

the Boards employed their own staffs the work was cheaper and better than under the tender system. This has encouraged other Education Boards to employ direct labour, and the results have been satisfactory. The " cost plus fee " system of contracting was discussed also, and several Boards in a few instances have adopted it with advantage. Towards the end of the financial year the increasing gravity of the financial situation made it more and more imperative that grants should be restricted to more urgent cases. This accounts for the fact that, though during the year applications to the amount of £790,000 were received, an expenditure of only £390,000 was approved. Latterly, grants have been approved only in cases of outstanding urgency where no school at all existed or where the class-room accommodation was inadequate. Until the financial position is relieved it may be necessary to make considerable use of the portable and extensible school that has been designed by the Department. This portable building is intended to follow railway-construction, or be used temporarily where the centrality of settlement is not assured or where it is not certain that additional accommodation will be permanently required. The building is constructed of factory-made sections, which can be transported to the site, and there erected in a very short space of time. Similarly, an existing portable school can be cheaply and expeditiously added to. As the sections can be used to build a range of rooms, it may be found necessary, for the time being, to use these portable buildings widely, on account of their cheapness. During the year the building staff of the Department has been very much strengthened by the appointment of a School Architect —Mr. J. T. Mair, A.R.1.8.A., Graduate in Architecture, University of Pennsylvania. Roll Number. (Tables Bl and 82.) The number of children attending public schools in 1920, as shown by the average weekly roll, was 196,731, as compared with 193,655 in the previous year — an increase of 3,076. The following figures give in detail the average weekly roll and roll number at the end of 1920 : —

It was observed in the last report that the amount of increase in the roll from year to year had been declining; in 1920, however, there is again a rise, the increase in numbers over the previous year being 1-6 per cent., as compared with an increase of 1-2 per cent, in 1919. The increase is again more marked in the schools of the North Island than in those of the South Island, the roll of the former being 2-4 per cent, greater than in 1919 and of the latter 0-3 per cent, greater. During the last ten years the average weekly roll has increased by 27"1 per cent., so that there were more than one and a quarter times as many children in the schools in 1920 as there were in 1910. The increase in numbers in 1920 over 1919 is spread fairly evenly over all classes, being greatest, however, in the preparatory classes, Si and S6. The table below shows the mean average roll number for every fifth year from 1878 to 1908, and for each of the last ten years ; the table gives also the total average attendance for each year, the average attendance as a percentage of the roll (including secondary departments of high schools), and the number of teachers employed in the public schools.

Schools, Attendance, and Teachers.

The above figures relate to public schools. To estimate the total number of children receiving primary education in the Dominion it will be necessary to include public schools (exclusive of secondary departments of district high schools), Native schools, registered private primary schools, and the lower departments of secondary schools. The figures will then be : — Average Weekly Roll Number. Public schools (less secondary departments of district 1919. 1920. high schools) .. .. .. ..191,153 194,188 Na.tivc village and Native mission schools .. .. 5,358 5,689 Registered private primary schools .. .. .. 20,977* 22,193* Lower departments of secondary schools .. .. 686* 815* Total average weekly roll of primary scholars .. 218,174 222, 885 * Number on roll at end of year.

The following figures show the average attendance at public schools in the Dominion during the years 1919 and 1920 : — Including Secondary Excluding Secondary Departments of Departments of District High Schools. District High Schools. Year 1920 .. .. .. .. .. 171,102 168,816 Year 1919 .. .. .. .. .. 174,885 172,610 Decrease in 1920 .. .. .. 3,783 3,794 Decrease per cent. .. .. .. 2-2 2-2 Owing to widespread epidemics of a severe nature the regularity of attendance was poor in 1920, with the result that, although the roll number increased, there was actually a decrease of 2-2 per cent, in the* number of children in average attendance as compared with the previous year. Taken as a percentage of the average weekly roll number the average attendance was 87-0 the corresponding figure for 1919 (the highest on record) being 90-3. Every education district showed a falling-ofr in this respect, the percentages ranging from 86-0 to 88-6, and the best results being attained in Otago and Nelson. As far as can be judged the regularity of attendance in New Zealand schools compares, as a rule, very favourably with that obtaining in other English speaking countries. It should be mentioned in this connection that a special concession was made to Education Boards in the matter of payments for incidental expenses of schools and teaching staffs which were based on the average attendance for 1920, the average of the highest quarter being taken as the basis instead of the mean of the average of the four quarters.

The following figures represent the total number of children (of whom the average weekly roll number was given above) in average attendance at registered schools giving primary instruction : — Public schools (excluding secondary departments of district 1919. 1920. high schools) .. .. .. .. .. 172,610 168,816 Native village and mission schools .. .. .. 4,632 4,861 Registered private primary schools .. .. .. 18,472 19,162 Lower departments of secondary schools .. .. 608 688 Totals - .. .. 196,322 193,527 Classification, Age, and Examination of Pupils. (Tables CI and 02.) Classification and Age of Pupils. The classification of the pupils is for the most part carried out by the teachers, and Inspectors of Schools report that on the whole the task is well performed. In small country schools local influence brought to bear upon the teacher sometimes results in children being promoted too soon. One result of the work of the organizing teachers is, however, a more uniform classification in the small schools under their supervision. There is still a general tendency to retard pupils in the preparatory classes ; on the other hand, it is reported that the retardation in S5 previously remarked upon is not so evident. Retardation of the brighter pupils is frequently found, the opportunity of promoting such children twice in a year, especially in the lower classes, not being sufficiently taken advantage of. There is reason to suspect that examination results sometimes influence the teacher to the detriment of the advance of the more clever pupils. The question of retardation is at present receiving the attention of the Department, the necessity of the time spent in the primary school being used to the pupil's greatest advantage being recognized as a most important matter. Standard tests of mental efficiency suitable for New Zealand children will require to be devised, and although the work which is now being entered upon by a special committee presents many difficulties, the Department has every assurance that the results to be attained will fully compensate the work and trouble involved. The following table shows the classification of pupils of primary schools, the numbers between the heavy horizontal lines representing children regarded as of normal classification, those above the upper lines children brighter than the average, and those below the lower lines children below normal classification : —

Note.—The number of 86 pupils in this table differs from that shown in Table C 2 for the reason that pupils who did the work of S6 but left before the end of the year are included in this table.

On the assumption that school life is commenced at the age of five years and that two years are spent in the preparatory classes and one year in each standard, pupils should be eight years old at the end of a year in Si, nine years old in S2, &c. In the above table pupils are regarded as below normal classification if they are nine years of age or over in Si, and so on ; and it must be admitted that the large number coming under this heading is arresting —in fact, more than half of the pupils are below normal classification. The following figures show the position for each standard : —

While 51 per cent, of the pupils are one year or more below normal classification, about 20 per cent, are two years or more below. Beginning school life at a later age than five years doubtless accounts to a great extent for the high ages of the pupils, and other causes beyond the teachers' control are irregular attendance, migration from school to school, and mental backwardness. It is well, however, to keep the fact steadily in view that large numbers of children are much older than they should be for the classes they are in, and everything possible should be done to avoid the waste of time and opportunity represented by such retardation. The fact is not to be overlooked, of course, that modern investigation goes to show that children should be classified less according to age than according to educational ability, which varies at the different ages more than was previously supposed. There is, therefore, always the danger to be avoided of forcing a backward child to attempt work beyond its ability, but it is probable that in our schools the tendency is to err in the other direction, not only backward children being retarded owing to the lack of special attention, but what is now regarded as a much more serious matter —the children with more than average ability being denied the opportunity of progressing at the faster rate suitable to their capabilities. The following are the average ages of the pupils in the several classes at the end of the year's instruction :— 1919. 1920. Yrs. mos. Yrs. mos. Preparatory classes .. .. .. .. ..71 71 Class SI .. .. .. .. .. ..90 91 „ S2 .. .. 10 1 10 2 „ S3 .. .. .. .. .. .. 11 3 11 3 „ S4 .. .. .. •• .. .. 12 3 12 3 „ S5 .. .. .. .. .. .. 13 1 13 1 „ S6 .. .. .. 13 11 13 11 Mean of average age .. .. 9 10 9 10 The average figures are practically the same as for many years past; the results from the various education districts also still show an unaccountable range, difference amounting to as much as seven months in several classes. Detailed figures may be found in Table C 4. The average age of the pupils at the end of the year in Sβ is being freely criticized. Careful comparison with the position in other States goes to show that although the age may be too high in New Zealand, it is not higher than prevails elsewhere when equal standards of work are attained. Children leaving the primary schools at lower ages in other countries do so with a smaller equipment for entering upon secondary work.

upon an intermediate secondary course at an earlier age is now under investigation by the Department, and it is hoped shortly to present a draft scheme for discussion by educational authorities with a view to some advance being made in the near future. A record is kept of the percentages of children in the various classes and of the various ages, the percentage of pupils in the preparatory classes being in 1920 34-85 per cent, of the whole number—a very slightly lower figure than that for the previous year. Any reduction in this figure is welcomed as one sign that the retardation suspected in these classes is being overcome. The fact still remains, however, that at the end of the year 21 per cent, of the pupils were eight years of age and over, and 6 per cent, nine years of age and over. Children leaving School before passing S6. A matter for serious concern, commented on in previous years, is revealed in the classification tables, which show a great discrepancy between the number of pupils in Si and in Sβ. In 1915 there were 22,896 children in Si, the majority of whom, allowing for various contingencies, should have been in S6 in 1920. It appears, however, that there were only 14,084 pupils, or 61 per cent, of the number, in S6 in 1920, so that 39 per cent, of the pupils left school without doing the work of S6, and similarly 19 per cent, left school before completing the S5 syllabus. The actual number of children who left school in 1919 without having passed S6 was 5,169— half as many as left having passed that standard. The standard of work reached in S6 is the least educational equipment that a child should have before taking up its life's work, so that the provision of the Education Amendment Act of 1920, making it compulsory for a child to attend some school until the age of fifteen years, instead of fourteen as at present, will, when it comes into force, be beneficial in reducing this large number of insufficiently educated children. The provision of free places at technical schools offering training in subjects related to industrial occupations to specially recommended pupils who have not passed Sβ has been of some assistance to such children, about six hundred free places of this kind being taken up in 1920. Examination of Pupils. Although examination results are no longer regarded as the best and only indication of the value of the work of teacher and scholar, they nevertheless doubtless serve to some extent to gauge the accuracy, thoroughness, and application with which the school-work has been carried out. Inspectors of Schools realize to-day that their work embraces something more important than merely applying the measxire, and that demonstrations and assistance to the teacher in following the best methods of developing the child are of more value than merely testing the amount of information that has been imparted to it. As part of their duty, wherever possible, they conduct personally the Sβ examinations, awarding proficiency and competency certificates. In the case of small schools it is often necessary to conduct synchronous examinations under the Inspector's supervision ; the latter method, however, is not favoured by Inspectors, who have little opportunity other than by an examination of written answers of estimating the ability and educational standard of the individual pupils. The examinations resulted in 10,618 certificates of proficiency being awarded, the number representing 70*5 per cent, of the Sβ roll, and 2,176 certificates of competency, representing 14*5 per cent, of the roll. Of the latter certificates, 312 were endorsed for merit in science or in handwork. The percentage of proficiency certificates awarded was 2*2 greater than in 1919, and the percentage of competency certificates 1-5 less, so that the average results for the two years do not show any wide difference. The range difference in the results for the various districts was not so great as in the previous year, although the fact still calls for remark that the percentage of proficiency certificates awarded was as high as 80*2 in one district and ranged in the various districts down to a figure as low as 62 - 5 in one education district. The opinion is expressed, however, that the results are not to be taken as a reliable indication of the relative efficiency of the work of the districts, depending as they do partly on a natural fluctuation and partly on the unavoidable difference in standard set up by the Inspectors.

Registered Primary Private Schools. (Table Dl.) The number of primary private schools (excluding private schools for Natives referred to elsewhere) registered under the Education Act, 1914, and returning statistics at the end of the year was 221 in 1920, as compared with 212 in 1919. The schools are inspected by the Department's Inspectors and the pupils examined for the Sβ proficiency and competency certificates ; in this way it is ensured that children not attending public schools, wherein the State is willing to provide for them, are receiving adequate instruction elsewhere. There are still a certain number of unregistered private schools, and although there is at present no legal authority to prevent the holding of such schools, nevertheless the children in attendance are not complying with the requirements of the Education Act to attend some registered school, and their parents are liable to a penalty. The following are statistics relative to registered primary private schools :— Number of schools .. .. .. .. .. .. .. 221 Roll number at end of year —Boys .. .. .. .. 9,935 Girls .. .. .. .. 12,258 22,193 Average attendance .. .. .. .. .. ~ 19,162 Children under seven years of age .. .. .. .. .. 3,863 Children from seven to eleven years of age .. . . .. .. 9,599 Children from eleven to thirteen years of age . . .. .. . . 4,882 Children from thirteen to fifteen years of age .. .. .. .. 3,159 Children over fifteen years of age .. .. .. .. .. 690 Number of teachers —Males .. .. .. .. .. 66 Females .. .. .. .. 642 708 Average number of pupils per teacher .. .. .. .. 27 Table Dl gives particulars of the schools in the various districts. A list of registered private schools as published annually in the New Zealand Gazette. Conveyance and Board of Scholars. Free passes on the railway to the nearest public or private school are granted to children living near to the railway-line but out of reach of a primary school, and the same privilege is enjoyed by pupils having to travel to attend secondary schools, district high schools, and technical high schools, and also by free-place holders travelling to attend technical schools or classes othan than technical high schools. Education Boards are also authorized to make provision when necessary for the conveyance of pupils to primary schools by road or water and to contribute towards the payment for board of children compelled to live away from home in order to attend school. The following are the rates payable by the Department under the various headings : — (a.) Sixpence per return trip for each child over five years of age: Provided that the home is not less than three miles from the school in the case of a child ten years of age or over, and not less than two miles in the case of a child under ten years. (b.) Sixpence per return trip for each child over five years of age conveyed by ferry, (c.) Eightpence per return trip for each child where the distance to be conveyed exceeds five miles. (d.) Two-thirds of the recognized rates in the case of a child using a horse or pony where the roads for wheel traffic are non-existent or are such as to be dangerous or impassible for vehicles. ((?.) Five shillings a week for the board for each child over five years of age who has to live away from home in order to attend a public school. (/.) Half the amount expended by the Board on the conveyance and board of all children over five years of age in excess of the allowances received under (a), (b), (c), (d), and (c).

The following represents the expenditure by the Department for the year 1920-21 on the above-named services : —

The total expenditure for the previous year was £38,836. The " School Journal." The School Journal is published by the Department every month (except in December and January) for use as a supplementary reader in primary schools, and is still regarded as a useful and popular publication, in many cases it is being used as the chief reader. It is issued in three parts, suited to the varying capacities of the pupils in Standards I to VI inclusive, and is supplied free to all public schools, Native schools, special schools, and other institutions more or less under the Department's control or supervision. To a very large number of private schools it is supplied at cost price, with the result that over 16,000 copies of the School Journal are purchased monthly. Of the last issue of the School Journal for the year 1920 the number of copies printed was—Part I, 65,350 ; Part 11, 63,300 ; Part 111, 52,250 : total, 180,900. These numbers show an increase of 5,700 over those of the previous year. Owing to the increased cost of printing and of postage it was found necessary, in the middle of the year, to raise the price to purchasers, and the new rates are now Id. for each of Parts I and 11, and 1 |d. for Part 111, the minimum charge for one of each part being 4s. 6d. per annum. In addition to reading-matter of a general character there have appeared in the School Journal articles dealing with national events, having particular reference to the history of our Empire and to the racial history of the European nations, in order that the complicated national aspirations of the many races of Europe might be more clearly understood. In the choice of poetry a different topic was selected for each month, and the views of our best poets obtained thereon. This was done in order to give some idea as to how it is intended in the Syllabus of Instruction that this subject should be treated, and if the various selections were compared and contrasted month by month, and the thought content and metre analysed, the children of the Dominion should have had an excellent opportunity of realizing what good poetry is. Included in the list of authors the following names are to be found : Mrs. Browning, Mrs. Hemans, Bryant, Burns, Byron, Cowper, Dickens, Gray, Keats, Longfellow, Lowell, Milton, Rossetti, Shakespeare, Shelley, Stevenson, White, Whittier, and Wordsworth. More recent writers are represented by Benson, Alfred Noyes, A. C. Swinburne, and Stephen Leacock. Unfortunately, the laws of copyright prevent a more liberal use of present-day prose and poetry. The outstanding feature of the year was the issue of a Special Souvenir Number in connection with the visit of His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, and this was greatly appreciated not only by the children and teachers of New Zealand, but also by many prominent people outside the Dominion, who wrote requesting extra copies. A special number was also devoted to topics suitable for Empire Day, and throughout the year every endeavour was made to give the children an admiration for truth and goodness in daily life and a high conception of patriotism and national service. Class-books and School and Class Libraries. The practice of former years of making grants for establishing and maintaining school and class libraries was continued in 1920. These grants come under two heads : — (a.) A capitation grant at the rate of 3d. per head on the average attendance is paid to Boards for the purpose of supplying schools with

supplementary continuous readers in sufficient numbers for class reading in P to S6 inclusive, and also for the free supply of classbooks in. necessitous cases or in cases where a newly entered pupil had already purchased elsewhere class-books different from those in use in the school. After provision is made for the supply of such books, the balance of the grant, if any, may be spent on approved books suitable for individual reading in school or at home. (6.) Further to encourage the establishment and the satisfactory maintenance of school libraries provision is made for the payment of subsidies of £l for £l on moneys raised by voluntary contributions. In addition to this departmental subsidy a subsidy is payable by the Education Board, but the Board is not required to pay a sum exceeding 3d. for each child in average attendance at a school, or exceeding £5 for any one school. The books purchased are to be suitable for individual reading in school or at home, and are to be approved by the Senior Inspector. Precautions are taken to save parents from expense in purchasing new books on account of their moving from one district to another, and complaints on this matter are now rare. Subsidies on Voluntary Contributions. In addition to the subsidies mentioned above with respect to school libraries, under section 159 of the Education Act subsidies of £l for £l are payable on voluntary contributions for many other school purposes prescribed by regulation. The total amount approved as subsidies in connection w T ith public schools for the financial year ending 31st March last was £10,003, a figure showing each year a substantial increase, and indicating that School Committees are becoming more fully aware that any efforts they may make in the direction of providing funds for improving their schools and grounds are recognized by the payment of a Government subsidy. By this means many schools have been enabled to carry out desirable works somewhat beyond their own unaided efforts, and the provision of the Act has served as an excellent stimulus to self-help. Physical Education. The Department has a staff of fifteen physical instructors and one Chief Instructor, who supervise and inspect the work of physical education. The instructors visited the large majority of the schools in 1920, inspecting the work of some 140,000 children. The work is reported to be well carried out in schools where the teachers have had sufficient training ; there is, however, much need for the further training of the teachers, many of whom have had no training at all, and others only a short course some years ago. A new syllabus of physical instruction has recently been issued which is considered an improvement in many respects on the previous syllabus, but which also necessitates further training for the teachers. The syllabus prescribes a period of fifteen minutes for physical instruction ; in other countries a longer period is given, and the opinion is expressed that an extension of the period in New Zealand would be beneficial. In schools where the best results are found more than the regulation time has been devoted to the subject. A decided improvement is reported in the physique of children —especially girls—who have regular physical training. Particular attention is paid to corrective classes, which are organized especially for children with some physical defect, and many children who would otherwise always suffer from some physical disability are assured to a great extent of attaining a normal physique. The physical instructors' best opportunity of disseminating a knowledge of the work is in the training colleges, where they are able to give the students a comprehensive training before they go out into the schools as teachers. Medical Inspection. The administration of the work of medical inspection of school-children and school dentistry has now been assumed by the Department of Public Health, and reference to the work carried out in 1920 will be found in the annual report of that Department.

Manual Instruction. (Tables Gl-G3.) Under the provisions of. the Education Amendment Act, 1920, amendments were made in the regulations for manual and technical instruction providing for the classification of teachers of manual-training classes, defining their salaries, and making such salaries payable by the Department. The regulations relating to capitation payments for elementary handwork and subjects of manual training were also modified. A flat capitation rate based on the total roll-number in an education district was prescribed for instruction in elementary handwork for 1920 ; it is intended in future, however, that the Department will provide the material required for this work, and no payments to Boards will then be necessary. For classes in manual training taken by the special instructors referred to, capitation payments will be made merely to cover the cost of materia] and incidental expenses. Elementary handwork in sxich subjects as modelling, paper and cardboard work, and brushwork is taught by the ordinary staff in practically every school of any size in the Dominion. The subject, which has an established place in the syllabus, is expected to be used as a means of expressing ideas and of training in clear thinking and accurate working, and also to be closely correlated with other subjects of the curriculum illustrating the abstract facts learned under the different branches of the syllabus. In 1,600 out of a total of 2,400 schools instruction was also given in some further branch of manual training. The boys of S5 and Sβ (also S4 in small schools) in 536 schools received instruction from special teachers in woodwork or ironwork, there now being 114 specially equipped centres for this purpose. The girls of similar standards from 540 schools, who numbered 12,160 in 1920, also received instruction from special instructors in domestic subjects, including a comprehensive course in cookery and domestic hygiene. This instruction is also given at suitably equipped centres which correspond in number to the woodwork and ironwork centres. Subjects relating to agriculture or dairy-work were taught in 1,450 schools —sixty-six more than in the previous year. These subjects are generally taught by the regular staff under the supervision of itinerant instructors specially qualified in the work. Different branches of elementary science were taught in 131 schools (eleven more than in 1919) and swimming and life-saving at 1.22 schools, all of the classes mentioned being recognized under the regulations for manual instruction for special capitation payments. Science subjects bearing on. rural pursuits are taught in the secondary departments of many district high schools, 1,680 pupils taking a rural course including such subjects in 1920. The special work is carried out for the most part by itinerant instructors. The special capitation payment previously made on account of pupils taking a rural course will be discontinued under the new arrangements for the payment of instructors. Some of the district high schools where the rural course was most successfully followed have recently been converted into technical high schools. The following table gives some particulars of the cost to Education Boards of certain branches of manual instruction : —

The Department's total payments to Education Boards for the year 1920-21 on account of manual instruction amounted to £53,286.

Staffs of Primary Schools. (Table El.) The number of teachers employed in the primary departments ot public schools in 1920 was 5,755, as compared with 5,626 in 1919. Of the total number, 5,175 were adult teachers (1,675 males and 3,500 females) and 580 were pupilteachers (114 males and 466 females). The increase in numbers took place in the adult staff, there being 69 more male teachers and 106 more female teachers than in 1919. There were 46 fewer pupil-teachers than in the previous year, but this decrease was more than compensated for in the increased number of probationers. In addition to the staff of adult teachers and pupil-teachers 580 probationers were employed —144 more than in 1919. Of the total, 95 were males and 485 were females, the number of males having increased by 50 per cent. The following table shows the mimber of adult teachers in each grade of school classified under the headings of sole, head, or assistant teachers : —

of small sole-teacher schools. The average number in the larger schools, as the above figures show, is considerably greater, being forty-three when schools with six or more teachers are taken together. This figure shows a reduction of two on the corresponding average for 1919, due no doubt to the provision made at the end of 1919 for slightly better staffing in the large schools. Each year it has been possible to make some small advance in the direction of staffing-conditions, and the amended regulations of 1920, while not prescribing an increase in the number of the staff, provided for the appointment of assistants of a higher grade than previously in schools of various sizes, thus ensuring in these cases a more efficient if not a more numerous staff. In the London County Council schools the average number of pupils per teacher is thirty-seven, 4,000 classes under one teacher being forty or less in number, 7,000 being between forty and fifty, and nearly 5,000 being between fifty and sixty. Although it is recognized that ideal conditions in this respect are still some distance off in New Zealand, the comparison with the London County Council schools, where a high standard is set, is not altogether unfavourable. With regard to the sex of public-school teachers, the figures below show the proportion of men and women teachers on the primary-school staff : —■ n 1915. 1918. 1919. 1920. Ratio of adult male to adult female teachers— M. F. M. F. M. F. M. F.

So long as the present proportion of men teachers is maintained — i.e., one in every three —the position in this respect may be regarded as entirely satisfactory ; it is, in fact, much better than obtains in most English-speaking countries. There has been some concern during the last few years at the dearth of young men entering the teaching profession, but an improvement will be observed in the proportion of males among the probationers and training-college students, and from later reports it appears that in the current year young men are applying in still larger numbers to enter the teaching service. Salaries of Primary Public-school Teachers. (Table M.) An amended scale of teachers' salaries was introduced in 1920, operating from April of that year, and providing salaries on the following basis : — Salary for Position held. Head teachers of schools with average attendance of —■ £ £ 9-20 .. .. .. .. .. .. 180-210 21-35 .. .. .. .. .. .. 220-270 36-80 .. .. .. .. .. .. 280-310 81-120 .. .. .. .. .. .. 290-330 121-240 .. .. .. .. .. .. 330-360 241-400 .. .. .. .. .. .. 370-410 401-480 .. .. .. .. .. .. 420-440 Over 480.. • .. .. .. .'. .. 450-480 Assistants — Grade 1 160-170 Grade 2 .. .. 180-190 Grade 2a 200-210 Grade 3.. .. ~ .. .. .. 200-230 Grade 4 .. .. .. .. .. .. 240-270 Grade 5 .. .. .. .. •• .. 280-300 Grade 6 .. .. .. .. .. .. 310-320 Grade 7 .. .. .. .. ... .. 330-350 Grade 8 .. .. .. .. .. .. 360-400

To the above amounts additions of from £20 to £60 are made according to the teacher's position on the graded list. Married assistant teachers also receive an additional allowance of £40 per annum. Head teachers either have the free use of a school residence or receive a house allowance of from £30 to £60 per annum. The following is the scale recently adopted by the London County Council, which employs 20,000 certificated teachers and 300 uncertificated teachers, and probably pays higher salaries than any other educational authority in England :— Certificated Assistant Teachers. Men, £200 to £425 ; women, £187 10s. to £340. i. Head Teachers, q i i Men. Women. Maximum Salary. Maximum Salary. £ £ Grade I (accommodation 1-120) .. .. 467 374 Grade II (accommodation 121-240) '.. ..510 408 Grade 111 (accommodation 241-400) .. .. 552 442 Grade IV (accommodation 401-560) .. 600 480 Grade V (accommodation over 560) .. .. 650 520 It will be observed that the salaries in the London scale apply only to certificated teachers, and it should also be noted that on the average men teachers spend twenty-two years in the service before becoming head teachers, and women, nineteen years. When the additional amounts payable in New Zealand are included it will be seen that the scales do not differ widely. In New South Wales the following amounts represent the position quota : — £ £ Headmasters .. .. .. .. .. .. 299-403 Mistresses of departments .. .. .. .. .. 240- 305 First assistants—Men .. .. . . .. .. 234-299 Women .. .. .. .. .. 188-240 Assistants—Men .. .. .. .. .. .. 208 Women .. .. .. .. .. 169 To these amounts should be added the classification quota, ranging in the case of men from £52 to £234, and in the case of women from £39 to £188. No other allowances are payable, and the value of a residence is deducted from the salary. The total amount of all salaries and allowances at the rates payable on the 31st December, 1920, in this Dominion was £1,513,066, showing the large increase of £251,352 over the amount for the previous year. The total is made up as follows: — £ Adult teachers'salaries .. .. .. .. .. .. 1,351,216 Pupil-teachers'salaries and allowances .. .. .. .. 61,335 Probationers' allowances .. ... .. .. .. 59,365 House allowances to head or sole teachers where residence is not provided 41,150 £1,513,066 The above figures do not include the equivalent of house allowance where residences are provided, estimated at £44,420, nor the additional amounts paid to head teachers for the supervision of secondary departments of district high schools. The total cost of salaries and allowances (including the sum saved in house allowances) works out at £8 13s. 9d. per head of the average attendance, as compared with £7 9s. lid. in 1919. The average salaries of adult teachers (including house allowances and value of residences) for the last three years are shown in the following table : — Average Salaries of Primary-school Teachers. 1918. 1919. 1920.

Women .. .. .. .. .. 150 197 229 The very substantial increases indicated in the above figures are the result of the amended regulations which operated from April, 1919, and from April, 1920. In two years the average salaries have increased by amounts ranging from £79 to £113, and the total amount payable in salaries and allowances has increased by £577,886, or 62 per cent. The average salary of all teachers in England and Wales is estimated for the year 1920-21 at £230. The following table gives some further information regarding the number of certificated teachers receiving certain salaries:—

As will be observed, the annual salaries of 79 per cent, of certificated male head or sole teachers exceed £350 ; 56 per cent, of the certificated women head or sole teachers (which approximately represents the number in schools above Grade II) receive salaries exceeding £300. Of the certificated male assistants 77 per cent, receive salaries exceeding £300, while of the certificated women assistants 98 per cent, receive salaries exceeding £180 per annum and 33 per cent, salaries exceeding £250 per annum. When the fact is taken into account that all certificated teachers who have just emerged from the training colleges or have just entered upon their service as adult teachers are included in the above figures, it must be conceded that the remuneration now offered to school-teachers is not altogether inadequate. The allowances of pupil-teachers and probationers were also again substantially increased in 1920, the following being the rates now payable to both : First year, £90 per annum ; second and third years, £95 per annum, with an additional £5 in the case of a male. In addition a boarding-allowance of £30 per annum is paid if the young person is obliged to live away from home, or a travelling-allowance not exceeding £10 per annum if daily travelling is necessary. It is reported that the increased emoluments offered have resulted in larger numbers of suitable candidates seeking entrance to the teaching service. Status of Teachers in regard to Certificates.

Primary Teachers in Public Schools.

The percentage of certificated teachers shows no increase, although it is reported that the recent provisions for using the graded list of teachers as the basis of making appointments and promotions is beginning to have a salutory effect in the direction of instigating uncertificated teachers to improve their status. The fact that the shortage-of qualified teachers is now becoming less acute will also make it possible to bring pressure to bear upon teachers who are not attempting to improve their qualifications. If the teachers of schools with an attendance of twenty and under are excluded the percentage of certificated, teachers becomes 81. The London County Council employs 20,000 certificated teachers and only 300 uncertificated teachers, so that it must be admitted that there is room for improvement in the average standard of attainment among New Zealand teachers. Of those holding certificates, 47 per cent, do not hold anything higher than a D certificate, which represents the lowest possible attainment that a teacher should have reached. This number is happily 2 per cent, lower than it was in the previous year. The following table shows the number of teachers holding the various certificates in 1919 and 1920: —

Classes of Certificates held by Primary-school Teachers.

Training of Teachers. (Tables E5-E7.) Training Colleges. There are four training colleges situated in the four principal centres of the Dominion, which are open to four classes of students, as follows : Division A, ex-pupil-teachers, ex-probationers, or ex-trainees of recognized kindergarten schools who have obtained the necessary educational qualification; Division B, other students who have passed Matriculation or obtained a higher leaving-certificate ; Division C, University graduates admitted for one year; and Division D, teachers entering on short-period studentships. The numbers of students in attendance during the last quarter of 1920 under the various divisions were —Division A, 590; Division B, 67 ; Division C, 12 ; and Division D, 11 : the total being 680, as compared with 582 in 1919 and 500 in 1918 ; 387 students were first-year students and 293 were second-year students.

Auckland ... ... ... 52 123 175 56 133 189 Wellington ... ... ... 26 126 152 39 135 174 Ohristchurch ... ... ... 21 108 129 26 117 143 Dunedin ... ... ... 27 99 126 36 138 174 Totals ... ... 126 456 582 157 523 680 The number of students is increasing every year, and since 1914 has increased by 58 per cent. The proportion of men students is also steadily growing, nearly 25 per cent, of the whole number being men in 1920. By an amendment in the regulations made in 1920 the number of students allowable at each training college was increased from 150 to 250, and it will be observed that in three cases the old maximum was exceeded in 1920. It may be. stated. that the number of students for the current year shows a very great increase over the number in 1920. The ordinary course of training is for two years. Under certain conditions a one-year course is provided for in the case of University graduates or of matriculated students who have completed a two-years course at an agricultural college or a school of home science recognized by the University of New Zealand. In addition, there are short-period studentships, of not less than three months' or more than one years' duration, for the benefit of teachers who have been already employed in teaching and are deemed worthy of further training in professional work, the allowances payable to such students being the same as those payable to students under Division B. The actual number of students completing one or other of these courses at the end of 1920 was 355, as compared with 271 in 1919. For the teaching practice of students the normal practising schools forming part of the training college in each case are available, and opportunities.of observation are also extended so as to embrace specially selected teachers and classes in neighbouring schools. Each normal school includes — (a) a main school, organized as a " mixed school " ; and (b) such " model schools " as may be approved by the Minister, each model school being one of the following types : (i) A rural public school under a sole teacher ; (ii) a junior school under one teacher with not more than 45 children of classes P to S2 on the roll ; (iii) a class representing the secondary department of a district high school; (iv) a special class of children of school age ; (v) a junior kindergarten. Students receive their theoretical instruction from the training-college staff, and also attend University college classes to ' a considerable extent. A certain proportion of students attempt degree work in conjunction with their training-college work, although this double course is discouraged except in cases of specially suited students. Divisions A, B, and C students satisfactorily completing the prescribed course of work at the training college may, on the recommendation of the Principal, receive without further examination a trained-teachers' certificate ranking with the class C ' or Class D certificate, as may be determined. Of the 311 students beginning a two-years course in 1919, 4 held Class C certificates, 127 Class D certificates, and 137 held partial successes towards teachers' certificates at the time of entry ; and the following was the examination status of 355 students completing their course at the end of 1920 : Class A certificate, 6 ; Class B certificate, 37 ; Class C certificate with partial B, 49 ; partial C or D with partial B, 9 ; Class C, 100 ; Class D with partial C, 53 ; Class D, 20 ; sectional D and sectional C, 18 ; sectional C, 5 ; sectional or partial D, 7 ; no examination, 1. Amendments made in the regulations for training colleges in 1920 provided for further increases in the allowances payable to students, which are now as follows : Division A and C students, £100 per annum ; Division B and D students, £80 per annum. University class fees are paid in addition, and when necessary a boarding-allowance of £30 per annum or a travelling-allowance. These increased payments .probably account to some extent for the greatly increased number of candidates for entrance to the training colleges, and it may be said they are as liberal as if not more liberal than those offered in any other English-speaking country. In addition to the staffs of the normal practising schools the staff of each training college consists of a principal, vice-principal, one or more assistant lecturers, and a tutor and librarian. The salaries of these officers together with. those of the normal-school staffs were increased by regulations made in 1920.

The amounts paid to Education Boards in 1919-20 and 1920-21 for the training of teachers were as follows : — I. Training colleges— 1919-20. 1920-21.

Apart from the provision for training colleges, a sum of £6,000, as shown above, was expended upon the maintenance of training-classes, railway fares, and upon correspondence courses for uncertificated teachers. The purposes for which the grants were made were : — (a.) Saturday instruction classes in such subjects as science, drawing, singing, and handwork, attended by pupil-teachers, probationers, uncertificated teachers, and certificated teachers studying for a higher certificate. (b.) Special summer and winter schools of instruction for untrained and uncertificated teachers. (c.) Free correspondence classes are arranged by Education Boards for country teachers or alternatively the fees of teachers who join approved correspondence classes are paid. As the Department has not been entirely satisfied with the provision for and administration of this work the subject is at present receiving attention, and regulations for the future conduct of this branch of teachers' training are being drawn up. Supplementary Model Country Schools. Regulations were made at the end of 1920 providing for the establishment of supplementary model country schools for the purpose of giving training in the management of a country school (a) to young persons who intend to become teachers but are ineligible to enter a training college, (b) to teachers requiring further training. Only teachers who have shown special skill in managing a country school may be placed in charge of a model school of this type, and they will receive special remuneration. Teachers being trained in the school receive their full salary and other young persons receive an allowance. Several Education Boards are at present experimenting under this scheme, but it is as yet too early to report upon its success or otherwise. Organizing Teachers. The employment by Education Boards of organizing teachers, begun in 1919, was continued in 1920, twenty-six such teachers working in the various education districts. Their duty is to supervise closely the work of small groups of country schools placed under their charge, assisting the teachers in matters of organization, schemes of work, and method of teaching, and directing uncertificated teachers in their courses of study. Inspectors of Schools report very favourably on the success of the scheme, commenting on the marked improvement in the efficiency of small schools brought under this supervision. An extension of the system is advocated in districts where numbers of country schools are still unreached. The salaries of organizing teachers range from £370 to £430 per annum, in addition to which a house allowance of £60 per annum is payable. Grading of Teachers. The fourth revision of the graded list of certificated teachers has taken place, and the regulations for the grading of teachers again amended in certain directions.

19

E.—2

With each revision it is felt that a nearer approach is made to obtaining a list of teachers placed in the right order of merit and to securing a correct classification. By the provisions of the Education Amendment Act of 1920, Education Boards are required, with certain reservations, when appointing or transferring teachers, to select the candidate who is highest on the graded list of teachers ; the object of the graded list will thus now be attained, teachers in every education district having an equal opportunity of securing any primary-school position in the Dominion and generally having a good guarantee that merit will be duly rewarded. Finances of Education Boards. (Tables Fl-F3.) The following figures show the receipts and payments of Education Boards for the years 1919 and 1920 under the various headings : —

The payments in 1920 exceeded the receipts by £59,884, the Boards' cash balances being less by that amount at tne end of the year than they were at the beginning. The total cost of administration shows an increase of £9,623 over the cost for the previous year, and as the Government grants for this purpose were adjusted so as to make ample provision on the basis of the 1919 expenditure the result is that, without taking into account transfers to special accounts from the General Fund, there was a deficit of £5,784 on the year's working on this account alone. In the case of two Boards only the receipts were greater than the payments, and it should be mentioned that while in one district of moderate size the cost of administration was 4 - 6s. per head of the average attendance, it ranged in the various districts to a cost as high as 7-02s. in one district, the average cost per head of all the districts being s*7ls. Both the receipts and payments on account of the conveyance and board of school-children were greater than in the previous year, the receipts exceeding the payments by £841. Three Boards found it necessary to make transfers from the General Fund. In only one case, however, was this due to the payments for the year exceeding the receipts; in the other cases it was owing to previous cash debit balances not having been met by corresponding assets. The total amount of all such transfers was £1,063. The more liberal provision for incidental expenses of schools resulted in greater receipts and payments in this account than previously. The payments exceeded the receipts by £370 ; and in order to balance the account three Boards transferred substantial amounts from the general Fund, the highest amount transferred being £631, and the total amount transferred by all Boards being £1,222. Although in the case of the Manual Instruction and Technical Instruction Accounts the payments exceeded the receipts by large sums, the position, when the amounts owing to the Boards are taken into consideration, is much better. In the Manual Instruction Account five Boards have credit balances amounting in all to

£5,000, and in the case of four Boards transfers from the General Fund amounting in the total to £2,000 were necessary, in the case of one Board the overexpenditure being in connection with a building for manual instruction. In the case of the Technical Instruction Account seven Boards have credit balances amounting in all to £4,800, transfers from the General Fund totalling less than £500 being necessary to clear the accounts of the remaining two Boards. The payments for sites, new buildings, and rebuilding exceeded the receipts by £33,590. The Boards, however, had large sums owing to them, amounting to nearly £37,000, so that no loss was sustained on the accounts. In only two cases were very small transfers made to the New Buildings Account in order that the account should not. be in debit; in two cases there were small credit balances. In three cases the credit balance in the Rebuilding Account was reduced owing to legitimate charges or transfers. The total credit balance in the Rebuilding Account wa,s £145,000. In the Maintenance of Buildings Account some of the Boards have apparently experienced greater difficulty in making the revenue meet the expenditure, in spite of the fact that maintenance grants were again increased in 1920. In six cases the net credit balance was reduced on the year's transactions—in one case by over £5,000 and in another case by nearly £12,000 ; the reductions in the remaining cases were comparatively small. Previous credit balances obviated the necessity of making transfers to the account, except in the case where the largest deficit occurred, in which instance some adjustment will require to be made to extinguish the debit balance on the account at the end of the year. The Education Amendment Act of 1920 invested Boards with the power of making (with the approval of the Minister) the necessary expenditure out of the General Fund or the fund for the maintenance of school buildings on workshop and plant and on the purchase of material, fittings, and furniture for school purposes. When it is ascertained to what fund the expenditure on the last-named articles is properly chargeable such charge is made to the proper fund together with reasonable charges for the workshop and plant. Some Boards now have workshops in operation, and are keeping Workshop Accounts in accordance with the provisions of the Act referred to. Six Boards had cash credit balances at the end of 1920, and three had debit balances, the largest debit being £1,824 and the highest credit £56,926 ; the total cash credit balance of all Boards was £98,930. When the amounts owing to and by the Boards are taken into account it is found that all Boards' accounts were in credit, the credit balances ranging from £2,719 to £87,326, and the total credit being £186,000. Of this sum nearly £143,000 is earmarked for the purpose of rebuilding worn-out schools and schools destroyed by fire. Education Reserves. The Education Reserves Amendment Act of 1914 provides for the revenue received from primary-education reserves to be paid by the Receiver of Land Revenue into the Public Account to the credit of a special deposit account called ' The Primary Education Endowments Deposit Account." The moneys so received are applied without further appropriation than the Act mentioned towards the payment of amounts charged on the Consolidated Fund for the purposes of primary education. The revenue from this source during the year 1920-21 was £91,543. Kindergarten Schools. The Education Act does not provide for the establishment of State kindergarten classes, except in the case of practising schools attached to the four teachers' training colleges, in each of which a kindergarten class of not more than forty pupils may be included. Kindergarten schools under the control of free kindergarten associations are, however, conducted at each of the four chief centres, the total number of children in attendance being approximately 550. The Government pays a subsidy of £l ss. to the pound upon moneys raised by voluntary contribution for the maintenance of these schools up to a limit of £3 2s. 6d. per head of the average attendance, the total amount paid on this account in the year 1920-21 being £1,676. In addition, a pound-for-pound subsidy is paid on moneys raised for buildings, sites, or initial equipment for the schools ; the sum paid in this manner for the last financial year being £1,363.

Table B2.—School Attendance at Public Schools for 1920.

Table B3.—Average Attendance for the Year 1920 at the Public Schools as grouped in Table A1, as estimated for determining the Grades of Schools.

The following notes are appended in explanation of this table : — A.—The average attendance as given in Table B3 differs from that in Table B2 for the following reasons : — (1.) Under certain contingencies the regulations provide for the elimination of one or two quarters' averages in the case of any school or department if the grade of the school or department would be raised or maintained by calculating the yearly average attendance on the mean of the remaining quarters' average. The amended average attendance thus ascertained is reckoned for the sole purpose of determining the grade of the school, and consequently this amended average attendance is used in the compilation of Table 83, which gives the schools according to their grades. For statistical purposes the average attendance as given in Table B2 should be taken. (2.) The totals of this table are for the mean of the four quarters of each school taken separately, not the mean of the gross quarterly totals of all sohools. (3.) New schools, many of which were open for only part of the year, are included as having an average attendance for the whole year ; whereas in Table B2 the average attendance is included only for those quarters during which the schools were open. B.—This table shows the average attendance for deter-mining the grades of schools. For determining the " primary" staff's of schools, however, the figures require to be reduced by the attendance in secondary departments of district high schools, viz. : — Grade 111b .. 60 Grade Vα .. 231 Grade VIIo .. 271 „ Iva ..72 „ Vt> .. 221 „ VHd .. 38 „ IVb .. 130 „ Vla .. 131 „ Vllo .. 341 „ IVc .. 76 „ Vlb . . 192 „ VIIj .. 222 Vα . . 197 „ , VHa .. 58 Vβ .. 39 „ Villi .. 164 Total .. 2,443

APPENDIX A.

REPORT OP THE CHIEF INSPECTOR OP PRIMARY SCHOOLS. Sic,— sth August, 1921. I have the honour to present my report for the year ended 31st December, 1920. During the year the demands made by office duties were heavier than was anticipated, but notwithstanding this all the education districts were visited and the Inspectors and Boards' officials conferred with. At these visits methods of inspecting schools and of effecting improvements in the organization were discussed, and an attempt made to arrive at some common basis for the appraisement of school-work and the efficiency of the teacher. In all centres I founJ the staff of Inspectors carrying out their duties with praiseworthy zeal and fidelity, and I have no hesitation in saying that the popular conception of an " Inspector " as one who is nothing more than a critic does not do justice to the work of an Inspector of Schools in New Zealand. The ranks of the inspectorate are filled for the most part by men who have had long experience as headmasters of large schools, and these find their work as Inspectors much more strenuous and exacting than the management of a school. The regulations specify that where an Inspector discovers weaknesses in the schools under his control he shall not merely point out these weaknesses, but shall by advice and illustration show how they may be removed. The actual work of organizing and teaching occupies, therefore, a laTge part of his time, and demands that ho shall, in school and after school, give of his best. The most radical change in the method of inspecting schools came as the result of placing the classification of pupils in the hands of the head teachers. Prior to this the Inspectors were the classifying officers, and examining was their chief work. As a rule, each school received two visits yearly, the first visit being for the purpose of seeing the teacher at work and advising him how to improve his methods of teaching and organizing, and the second visit for the purpose of examining the results of the year's work and of classifying the pupils. In most districts I found the old system survived in some shape or form. The Inspector does not now classify the pupils except in small inefficiently conducted schools ; but in most schools he does at one of his visits hold an examination of some kind. It is indeed safe to say that most Inspectors devote almost the whole of one visit to the work of examining. This is done even in the case of some normal schools attached to training colleges where the headmaster is himself a potential Inspector. The practice of examining colours nearly all inspection reports, and its effect is seen in the very prevalent conviction among teachers that their grading-marks depend on what they call their " results." There are, I imagine, few educationists of note in these days who still hold to the doctrine that the worth of a teacher can be expressed in terms of the number of " sums right "or " spellings wrong." It is time we took higher ground than this, and obtained from the wider outlook a truer sense of relative values. Until the system of appraising schools and school-teachers by the method of examination is further modified it is hopeless to expect teachers to break away from traditional methods and show originality. In consequence of the system of grading teachers in accordance with efficiency marks awarded by the Inspectors as grading officers the latter hold the key to the position. Their attitude and their methods are sure to bo reflected in the methods and aims of the teachers. If Inspectors are stereotyped, teachers are likely to be stereotyped also. I would therefore urge that it is of paramount importance for Inspectors to break away as far as is reasonable and possible from the formal examination method of appraisement that formed a proper and very necessary adjunct to the education system of the past. The careful and detailed examination of schools the efficiency of which is in doubt, or which are conducted by teachers of whose fidelity the Inspector is not assured, must always form part of the Inspector's duty, and there is no suggestion in this report that examination in such cases as these should b<; abandoned. Nor is there any suggestion here that the Inspector should countenance slackness cither on the part of the teacher or on the part of the pupil. Careful and accurate work should always receive high praise, and our education system might well be held to have failed in its object if it did not succeed in training children to regard care and accuracy as a worthy aim. It should indeed be counted among the chief duties of the Inspector to set a high standard of attainment and to show how this standard can be reached. Under the formal examination system the Inspector had little time to do more than apply the measure, as if the process of measuring accuracy were the chief means of securing accuracy. As well imagine that to weigh and measure a child's body is more important than to feed it! What is urged here is that the Inspector shall not only measure the success or failure of a teacher, but shall also supply Ms deficiencies. ' Under a freer system of inspection this can be done. It is, for example,- much more profitable to a teacher to sec the Inspector actually handle a class in arithmetic, and demonstrate how accuracy can be attained and intelligence developed, than to see the results of a formal examination by means of test-cards. The latter he can see any day and does sec a great many times in the year ; the former he has at most only two opportunities of seeing during the year. A skilled Inspector will use both methods judiciously, but will always recognize the greater importance of the former.

With greater freedom from the examination incubus will come to both Inspectors and teachers greater opportunities for realizing the highest aims and ideals in teaching. Education will then come into its own, and cramming will be banished. There will bo time to consider the. rights of the child rather than the necessities of the teacher ; there will be freedom for the pupil to advance at the pace and in the manner best suited to his mental and physical development, and time also for the Inspector to inspire the teacher by example as well as by precept. I feel sure that under a freer system of inspection the official estimate of the efficiency of the teacher will not lose but gain in reliability. Hand in hand with any such reform must go increased opportunity for the Inspector to study the more recent developments in educational thought and practice. It will not do for him to be as closely tied as he, is at present to an unceasing round of visits, and to have little opportunity to replenish his store of ideas and draw fresh inspiration from the fountains of knowledge. There must be time and opportunity both for study and discussion, and I can conceive of nothing better than the inspectorial staffs organizing reading and discussion circles with their teachers. This is not the place to enter upon a long discussion of the modern movement of educational method in the direction of securing more willing co-operation on the part of the pupil. Madame Montessori's system, the Dalton Laboratory plan, and suchlike methods of auto-education are but modern developments of the older heuristic methods, and mark a distinct break from the " forced feeding" system which dominated the schools of our childhood and which is even yet riot quite banished from the land. According to the tradition of the past the more information a child absorbed the better he was educated. Hence the system of judging the extent of a child's education by measuring the amount of information he could reproduce. The extent to which such a system of appraising the success of any education system has failed is apparent to every thoughtful and observant man or woman. To be successful, every education system must take cognizance of those qualities, attributes, and powers that condition the mental, moral, and physical advancement of the race. It is the aim of the new education to do this ; but it cannot succeed in its aim until the method of assessing the value of the teacher and his work is altered. It is the aim of the new education to enable the pupil to build up by his own efforts a body of usable knowledge, not a mass of second-hand information most of which, though reproduoablo on an examination-paper, is ill-digested and, unserviceable. The resemblance between the Chinese and Egyptian methods of instruction and much in our own method must be apparent even to the superficial observer, and the. absurdity of the so-called education test given to the Oriental is not entirely absent from the appraisement of work in New Zealand schools. Under the newer methods of instruction the pupil may have a smaller body of memorized information, but what he has he holds and can use. The present-day pupil does not equal the pupil of the past in repeating a long list of the coast features of a country, but he kno"ws more real geography ; he cannot, as a rule, give one a list of dates and historical events, but history is of more vital interest to him ; he does not know as many absurd " rules " in arithmetic, but he has an infinitely greater love for reading and much greater facility in English composition. And if the new education can secure the interest and whole-hearted co-operation of the pupil, the old-time troublesome problem of maintaining discipline will disappear, for the pupil will govern himself ; while the mental and moral effect of his entering into the acquirement of knowledge with whole-hearted earnestness cannot be overestimated, and must play an important .part in the development of character. A note of warning should, however, be sounded here. During the period of transition between the old and the now the educationist runs the risk of losing his sense of relative values. The importance of what may bo called the fundamentals should never be lost sight of, and no system or method of education can be considered as having served its purpose unless it enables the pupil readily to acquire a knowledge of and skill in the simple tools of his craft. The knowledge built up by painful effort during past centuries will be a closed book to the pupil if he cannot read, and read, moreover, with facility and understanding; the field of mathematics a barren waste if he knows not the multiplication table; his letters a laughing-stock if, he cannot spell. But the new education does not disregard the importance of the fundamentals, and the only difference between the old and the new in this respect is the manner in which the pupil attains a mastery of his tools. It'has been impossible here to do more than indicate the significance of this difference; to the educationist it is everything. Trained in the infants' department through, say, the Montessori method, and in the higher classes through some other form of self-education, the secondary pupil, the pupil-teacher, and the university student will not, as is now so frequently the case, show themselves unable to prosecute their studies on their own initiative ; their training will have aimed to make them self-reliant and resourceful, able to take the best from their hours of leisure as well as from their hours of work. During the year additional Inspectors were appointed to the Auckland, Utago, Canterbury, Wanganui, and Taranaki Districts. ' Notwithstanding this increase, the districts are by no y means liberally staffed. The average number of schools and the average number of pupils per Inspector (including public and private schools) in each district is as follows : Auckland, 66 schools, 5,647 pupils ; Taranaki, 56 schools, 3,863 pupils; Wanganui, 56 schools, 4,370 pupils ; Hawke's Bay, 54 schools, 5,273 pupils ; Wellington, 59 schools, 5,702 pupils ; Nelson, 74 schools, 3,776 pupils; Canterbury, 73 schools, 6,513 pupils; Otago, 54 schools, 4,786 pupils; Southland, 66 schools, 4,283 pupils. When it is considered that in addition to visiting, the schools the Inspectors have numerous other arduous duties, it will be seen that the difficulty of finding time for anything but routine work is a very real one indeed. 'The two problems most prominently before the Inspectors in recent years are (1) the problem of the retarded pupil, and (2) the problem of post-primary education. As regards the former, 1 have pleasure in drawing your attention to the earnest desire on- the part of the Inspectors to evolve some system by which pupils will be classified more in accordance with the level of their intelligence, and

by which neither the bright pupil will be retarded nor the dull pupil discouraged. With a different system of inspection J am hopeful much will be done in this direction during the next few years. As regards the provision of post-primary courses of instruction, L have long held the opinion that our district high schools do not serve the purpose for which they were originally established. Their curricula have been dominated by the older type of academic secondary education, which has been of little benefit to the majority of the pupils. In all district high schools few pupils remain longer than two years, and, though most of these after leaving school enter either on clerical work, farmwork, or household duties, they are generally given the same type of secondary education as those receive who intend to enter one of the learned professions. In short, the present type of secondary education takes cognizance neither of the mental and physical calibre of the pupils nor of the type of service they will subsequently be best fitted to render the community. In one district an attempt has been made since 191.5 to evolve a scheme of secondary instruction on more reasonable lines, but the difficulty of securing suitable teachers and of inducing the academically trained secondary teacher to provide a less narrow and specialized curriculum lias greatly hindered the development of the scheme. With the extension of the school age to fifteen will come the necessity to provide a syllabus of secondary instruction that will meet the needs both of the pupil who aims and is fit to enter the professions, and also of the pupil who is better fitted for clerical work or domestic duties, or whose bent is more in the direction of the mechanical occupations. The grading of primary-school teachers in accordance with their relative efficiency is one of the most important duties of the Inspector, and I have been struck during my experience on the, Board of Appeal with the marked uniformity of appraisement by the more experienced Inspectors. Any lack of uniformity that may now exist appears to be due not so much to divergence in judgment, as partly to the effects of too liberal marking in the smallest districts at the initiation of the scheme, and partly to the very natural tendency on the part of grading officers to be swayed by arguments put forward on an insecure basis with the object of proving that this or that district is undergraded. I am quite convinced it would be much fairer to teachers throughout the Dominion if agitation of this kind were abandoned, and it were left to the Education Department to effect, through the grading officers, such adjustments as are shown by well-authenticated statistical tables to be necessary to effect a reasonable degree of uniformity. Notwithstanding, however, the undoubted difficulties of grading, there is a strong body of opinion among both Inspectors and teachers that the grading system as a basis of promotion is infinitely preferable to the unsystematic and unsatisfactory methods of selection followed in the past. During the year the salaries of teachers and of entrants to the profession were raised, and the effect was seen in the large number of young people desiring to enter the service. The raising of the allowances to students attending the training colleges has resulted in a greater desire on the part of pupil-teachers and probationers to enter upon a systematic course of training, and the time should therefore not be far distant when a large proportion of the uncertificated and inexperienced teachers in country schools will be supplanted by trained teachers. In the North Island the supply of such teachers has for many years failed to keep pace with the advance in settlement. In the two University districts in the South Island tin; proportion of trained certificated teachers is high, and the young teachers there apparently prefer to accept lower positions in the districts in which they were trained rather than seek promotion far from home. The training of the inexperienced teacher has been a matter of concern to both Boards and Department for many years. At the present time large sums of money are expended for the purpose, and it is doubtful whether any other part of the Empire does so much in this direction. In addition to the Inspectors, much of whose time is occupied in remedying the deficiencies of the unskilled teacher, twenty-five organizing teachers are employed in different parts of the Dominion to raise, the efficiency of the weakest schools. In addition, free tuition for untrained teachers other than pupil-teachers and probationers is provided by means of Saturday classes, holiday schools of instruction, and correspondence courses. Model country schools under firstclass teachers have been established to enable the unskilled teacher to receive short and intensive courses of training. Notwithstanding all this, however, there are many teachers, unfortunately, who give the country little return for the heavy expenditure, since they either adopt the profession merely as a stop-gap or, proving unsuitable, drift away to other occupations. The organizing teachers, whose duty it is to aid inexperienced teachers in remote country schools, have already by their sympathy and help done a great deal to lessen the number of deserters. The young teacher who previously despaired of success is now encouraged to remain and prove his worth. Every district, in fact, reports the great success that is attending the efforts of the organizing teachers to raise the efficiency of the. schools under their control. The services of the two lady supervisors of the instruction of girls and infants have been distributed as effectively as possible over both the North and the South Island districts. After their preliminary survey of the field these officers began more intensive work in the several education districts. In general they found it impossible to visit any but the larger schools, but they took every opportunity to address meetings of teaohers, particularly on the newer methods of infant-class teaching. There appears to be considerable room for improvement in this direction in several districts ; but, judging from the enthusiasm of the teachers, the outlook is distinctly hopeful. The instruction and training of pupil-teachers and probationers is receiving close attention from the Inspectors, and as a result most districts have been able to report a distinct improvement in the work of these young people. Many of them, unfortunately, while showing considerable aptitude for teaching, appear, to have little inclination for independent study. This is scarcely to be wondered at when it is remembered that they have in most cases been for years previously spoon-fed at school. Until the schools realize the importance of the principle which lies at the foundation of Madame

Montoasori's methods, and of which Professor Armstrong and other eminent educationists in England were the vigorous supporters, so long will children, old and young, lack the ability and the selfreliance necessary to prosecute their studies by their own efforts. The Proficiency Examination, which marks the termination of the primary-school life of a pupil, is invariably conducted by the Inspectors themselves. The percentage of passes varies a good deal in the different districts, but neither these results nor the results of the Junior National Scholarship Examination are to be taken as a reliable indication of the relative efficiency of the districts. The variation in the percentage of proficiency certificates awarded is no doubt due partly to natural fluctuations in passes and failures, " fat " years following " lean," and partly to some variation in the standard of appraisement.' During the year an interesting investigation into the Inspectors' standards of judgment was made in the case of the marking of composition and writing. The results of this investigation were communicated to the Inspectors with the object of establishing a fairly uniform scale of judgment in each of the subjects mentioned. The Inspectors' annual reports deal very largely with the quality of the instruction, and extracts bearing on this matter are submitted herewith. In three respects our scheme of primary education, generally sound though it undoubtedly is, does not march with the times. The method of imparting instruction by oral lessons delivered to the pupils in platoons (in some cases, one might almost say, in regiments) dominates the school system. A method of this kind is not calculated to develop the pupil's individuality or his power of initiative, since the " oral " lesson must progress according to the teacher's plan, and is essentially designed to meet the needs of the "average" pupil, if there be such a person. It is hoped the time is not far distant when some system of self-education will be evolved not only in the preparatory classes, where it is occasionally seen even now, but in the standard classes also. In the second place, our school-work is not closely enough associated with the child's environment. The fault found with English schools, that the instruction they give is too bookish in character, applies with equal force in New Zealand. The text-book dominates the teaching, and is indeed to many teachers of much greater importance than the syllabus itself. In an endeavour to induce teachers to make their teaching more practical one of the Education Boards was persuaded to provide sufficient apparatus to enable arithmetic and geography at least to be taught practically ; but, notwithstanding all efforts, the text-book in most cases prevailed, and the apparatus was frequently found among the lumber. Probably the total banishment of some of the present text-books would be the only effective way to secure a better recognition of the child's environment as a factor in the teaching. Lastly, few of our primary schools give any attention to the importance of training school-children in social service. There are many opportunities for giving this training in school, and it is a pity, therefore, that the same general principle that underlies much of the organization of the Scout system and of the better forms of the prefect system does not find more general acceptance in the primary schools. In one district the introduction of the kind of training referred to has already been attended by excellent results, but in other parts of New Zealand it is in evidence only in isolated cases. The matter is referred, to thus in the report from one district: " The instruction [referring here to general instruction] is mainly on highly satisfactory lines, although there are some who stress the informative rather than the educative side of their,work. These are inclined to overlook the great responsibility of their position, and to forget that their great duty is to develop intelligence and to inculcate in the daily life of the scholars habits of social service as a preparation for their future responsibilities as citizens." The following are additional extracts from Inspectors' annual reports (the different reports being indicated by the letters (a), (b), &c. : — Post-primary Education. — (a.) " With the extension of the compulsory school age the work of district high schools must have greater opportunities of development. During recent years the majority have done excellent service for their districts. They provide for the boy and girl who can devote only a limited time to secondary subjects, a form of continuation work of a more clastic nature than that of the purely secondary school. Should there be a curtailment of the primary syllabus in order to reduce the age at which pupils may enter upon post-primary work, it seems that the district high school must be the means in many localities by which the new demands will be met." (b.) " It will be seen that, in spite of the opinion that the work of the district high schools should be directed principally to training in rural-course subjects, there is a distinct tendency towards what may be called classical education. We found in one instance that boys who had taken the special rural course in science for three years omitted science from their choice of subjects for Matriculation Examination." Quality of Instruction. — (a.) " Even in the standard classes we feel at times that the results to be obtained at the annual visit of the Inspector, rather than the educational welfare of the pupil, loom too prominently before the teacher when he is making his promotions." (b.) " We have found, as noted above, a general tendency to follow text-books very closely, and ti disinclination on the part of the teachers to read widely for themselves and to crystallize the information obtained in good oral lessons. In many cases we have found too much reliance being placed on notes dictated by the teachers. We hope that with the general adoption of the schemes now suggested these faults will largely disappear." Staff Conferences. — (a.) " We are of opinion that some headmasters fail to realize the important bearing of staff conferences on the work of the school. The discussion of methods, schemes, and promotions encourages a harmonious development of the work. Conferences increase the interest of the individual members of the staff, encourage loyalty to the school, make for attention to detail, and secure continuity of method." (b.) " In respect of improvements in organization, we note a distinct advance in one direction—viz., the frequent conferences between headmasters and assistants regarding promotions and other matters affecting the welfare of the pupils."

Instruction in Temperance. — (a.) " Although no definite time 'is set apart on the time-table for specific lessons on temperance, yet in most of our schools it is a topic included in the school scheme of hygiene and health. In some schools definite! oral lessons are given ; while in other schools the subject is treated in reading-lessons, followed by discussions on the part of both teacher and pupils. The subject-matter of the pamphlets issued by the Education Department is, in general, well assimilated." (b.) " The subject of temperance is treated in a sane and serious manner in our schools. In our opinion it is not advisable to deal with the matter after a strictly scientific fashion ; such a course would probably produce in the minds of pupils obscurity on the main issues at stake. Our chief aim should be to point out the great dangers arising from the use of alcoholic drinks, and to emphasize the evil effects of intemperance from the physical, mental, and moral standpoints. This aim is, we believe, being attained at present, so that the rising generation, being forewarned, should also be forearmed on this important question. The special report issued by the Department, ' Alcohol in relation to the Human Body and Mind,' will, we think, have a beneficial effect on the teaching of the subject." (o») " The teaching of temperance on incidental lines we find receiving general attention, but, as regards the specific lesson, the treatment depends very much on the personal views of the teacher." (d.) " During the year we have looked carefully into the methods adopted in dealing with this subject, and have obtained reports from the teachers of the various schools in the district stating what has been done by them in the matter. From our own observations and the reports furnished us we conclude that as a body the teachers of this district are fully alive to the importance of making the teaching of the subject a regular feature of the child's school life. This they have done by means of formal lessons, by incidental teaching, and by correlation with other subjects of the course;." (c.) " We have been somewhat disappointed to find that but little systematic teaching appears to have been given, and that the effects of alcohol upon the bodily system had been often ignored." Moral Instruction. —" It will be necessary to revise our programme of moral training to suit the times. Instruction designed to combat extravagance, dislike of work, over-indulgence in outside evening amusements, and a general tendency to lawlessness should be provided for in every scheme of work." Prefect System. —" In many schools the monitor and prefect systems are well used, and in a few cases the school games are almost wholly managed by a committee of the senior pupils." Supervised Lunch. —" Supervised lunch has become part of the regular routine in about 80 per cent, of the schools. During the winter months hot drinks are provided at a small cost. The details are arranged generally by monitors, and little beyond actual supervision is required of the teacher. Many teachers report an improvement in the quality of the lunches since the adoption of the system." Organizing Teachers. — (a.) " We are pleased to record valuable work by the organizing teachers. They have all taken a keen and intelligent interest in their work, and a considerable number of teachers have, under their direction, made marked improvement." (/;.) " We note with pleasure that the effectiveness of the work of the organizing teachers can not only be measured by the increased efficiency of the pupils' work, but that there is marked improvement in the discipline, diligence, and alertness of the children and in the teacher's attitude towards his work, while there is a general change for the better in the environment." Speech Training. —(«.) " With the object of securing expressive distinctness and due appreciation of the thought content of the passages read, reading in its different forms demands more thought and greater preparation than many of our teachers devote to it. Among the defects in elocution, want of attention to correct breathing is most marked, for seldom do we find exercises in phonics or in breathing, as preliminary to oral reading, systematically employed. Slurred terminal sounds and disregard of final consonants are too often in evidence, with the resulting indistinctness that produces ineffectiveness, for, to be informing and convincing, speech must be readily understood. This want of precision in speech is due chiefly to the child's home environment; nevertheless, its existence manifests the necessity for putting forth greater efforts on our part to counteract slovenly practices that operate against intelligence and intelligibility." (b.) " We are pleased to note that stress is laid by an increasing number of teachers on clear and distinct enunciation, and we trust that such commendable efforts to preserve purity of speech will be accompanied by a Wider recognition of the need for training in sympathetic and intelligent expression." (c.) " Indeed, speech generally is not satisfactory ; exercises in the pure vowel sounds and insistence on distinct enunciation are not frequent enough, with the result that it is rare to find the vowel sounds clear and accurate. The fault to a large extent has its origin in the home, but the accent of the teacher in too many cases affords the pupils no useful guide." Recitation. —(«.) " The standard of attainment in this subject is generally lower than that of reading, whereas the opposite should be the rule." (6.) " Few subjects show a wider range of treatment. Too often the pieces learned are of no literary merit, and do not appeal to the child in any way. In the senior classes more use might be made of the dramatic instinct latent in most children. Again and again we have had to refer teachers to the valuable hints given in Appendix C of the syllabus." (o.) "It is doubtful'whether we can honestly say that improvement has been made in this subject. Some teachers with a knowledge of its value succeed in creating in their pupils a love for learning good extracts of prose and poetry, but we are afraid that with many teachers the recitation lesson is a failure, the time being spent in requiring the pupils to say the words in a meaningless, unintelligent, and sometimes unintelligible way." Grammar. — (a.) " While recognizing the careful and successful treatment of composition, we regret to say that formal grammar is disappointing."

E.—2.

[Appendix A.

(b.) " The treatment of formal grammar per se is on the whole satisfactory, but we should like to 3ee a much wider recognition of its value when practically applied to the composition exercise." (o.) " The two broken years we have lately passed through have caused a slight falling-off in the general level of the work presented to us in composition and grammar. This falling-off is more marked in the latter than in the former subject." (d.) " In most of our schools this subject is well known, but we are not sure that the methods of teaching employed are of the best. Wβ are sometimes compelled to think that there is too much impression of facts concerning words by the teacher, and not enough expression by the pupil either orally or on paper." Composition. —" The practice during the oral composition lesson usually benefits the teacher rather than the pupil. In far too few schools do the pupils volunteer statements, especially full connected statements, without continual catechism. A wider course of reading, and above all the adoption of silent reading, would do much to improve the composition. Little attempt is made in our schools to familiarize the pupils with good models of English prose and verse. The crown of the studies in English should be the appreciation of good literature. Half of the time that is now given to oral reading in the upper classes might with advantage be given to this work. "Moreover, the teachers might well collect a series of paragraphs which are memorable in sound, moving in feeling, and inspiring in thought, and make these the basis of some English lessons." History. —" As the limited experience of the pupils of primary schools so circumscribes our efforts in connection with this subject, the idea has been advanced that, without disadvantage, history might be eliminated from the primary curricula, as the results are necessarily incommensurate with the teachers' efforts, and more attention could be paid to instruction in civics. History at its highest is a biography not of individuals but of communities, and as in geography we begin with prominent local features, so in history should our teachers familiarize the children with biographies of individuals before expecting them to take interest in communities." Geography. —" Geography is now being taught in a more rational and interesting manner, but many teachers still approach the subject in the wrong way. The influence of physical features and of climate on the industries and character of a people still fails to be the method of approach to a study of the subject. In the better schools the adoption of the regional method of teaching the ' subject has had the effect of rousing the interest of both teachers and pupils, and a desire has frequently been created to excel in what may be termed newspaper geography, a fact evidenced by a demand for books of travel from the school library." Occupations of Pupils after passing Sβ. — (a.) " Of 451 children reported to us by head teachers as being on the Sixth Standard roll at the end of the year, 209 —that is, 46 per cent, of the roll as recorded — took up secondary work in college, district high school, or technical high school. The head teachers also record a total of 249 scholars as leaving school at the end of 1919 or during 1920 from Standard VI and lower standard classes. The destinations and occupations adopted by these are summarized as follows: Home, domestic duties, 131 ; home and farming, 74; Public Service (Post Office, Kailway, &c), 24; shops, offices, bank, &c, 37 ; trades (butcher, baker, smith, &o.), 17 ; factories (sawmills, iron-foundry, &(;.), 11 ; carpentering and painting, 14 ; mining, 10; motor and cycle mechanics, &c, 6 ; teaching, 4; labour, 3; domestic service, 2 ; dressmaking, 2 ; training-ship " Amokura," 1 ; home, invalids, &c, unemployed, 4 ; employment unknown, 9." (b.) " (i.) 1919 Standard VI pupils who entered on some form of higher education during 1920 : Number, 339 ; percentage, 43." " (ii.) Occupations of Standard VI pupils and others who left school after 1919 Proficiency Examination or during 1920 and arc not now attending school: Assisting at home, 41 per cent, (this probably includes some who should be included under the next head) ; farming, 30 per cent. ; commercial, 12 per cent. ; trades, 6 per oent. ; unskilled, 4 per cent. ; Public Service, 3 per cent. ; unclassified, 2 per cent. ; domestic service, 1 per cent."

APPENDIX B. ABRIDGED REPORTS AND STATEMENTS OE ACCOUNTS OF EDUCATION BOARDS. 1. REPORTS. AUCKLAND. Sir,— Auckland, 31st March, 1921. In accordance with, the requirements of the Education Act, the Education Board of the District of Auckland has the honour to submit the following report for the year 1920 : — Board. —During the year the Devonport Urban Area was extinguished by incorporation with the Auckland Urban Area. The, members in office at the end of last year were as follows : Auckland Urban Area—Mrs. R. L. Baume, Dr. J. S. Reekie, Mr. H. S. W. King, and Mr. G. W. Murray ; North Ward—Mr. J. D. McKenzie and Mr. R. C. Smith ; East Ward—Mr. E. C. Banks and Mr. A. Burns ; West Ward —Mr. J. Boddie and Mr. J. S. Bond. Twenty-three meetings of the Board were held during the year, with an average attendance of seven. Schools. —The number of schools in operation at the end of last year was 683, including 116 part-time schools. During the year the following schools were opened : Awanga, Whangaparapara, Paremoremo, Tβ Miro, Vauxhall, Waitahanui, Waiteti, Richmond Downs, Avondale South, Karaka North, Otakiri, Ongaroto, Mangapai South, Okarari, Rotongaro, Molesworth, Lyndale, Orewa, Ohuka, Mangahoto, and Poroti. The following schools were closed : Amodeo Bay No. 1, Awaroa, Bream Tail, Kaimai No. 2, Matakohe No. 2, Oturoa, Parenga, Piha, Rangitoto No. 2, Upper Oruaiti, Waikoukou, and Whatipu. Attendance. —The number of scholars enrolled at the end of last year was 57,236 —viz., boys, 29,882 ; girls, 27,354 —being an increase of 783. The yearly average attendance was 49,659, being an increase of 1,375. Teachers. —During the course of the year it was found possible to make adjustments rendered necessary by the return of many teachers who had been absent with the Expeditionary Forces, so that the service is now fairly stabilized. The intimation by the Department that from July, 1921, the Dominion grading-list will become operative as the basis for promotion rendered it incumbent upon the Board to relax to some extent its local regulations in respect of tenure of positions by teachers before becoming eligible for promotion. This has resulted in most teachers having had an opportunity of becoming permanently placed before the new system comes into being. The Board is pleased to state that the shortness of reasonably qualified teachers is not now so acute as in former years. During the year the Board notified uncertificated teachers in its employment that they must either improve their academic status or be prepared to face relinquishment of their positions. The Act is quite clear upon the point. The Board may not hold in office an uncertificated teacher if a certificated teacher is available. Uncertificated teachers have begun to realize this, and the Board is pleased to note that an increasingly large number of them are making an earnest effort to improve their own education, and so enter the ranks of certificated teachers. This improvement has been largely due to the introduction of the principle of granting a grading increment in salary to certificated teachers. It is hoped that the enlargement of the Training College and its staff will in a few years' time have the effect of placing at the disposal of the Board a sufficient number of trained certificated teachers to enable assistant teachers to be substituted for pupil-teachers, thus more adequately staffing our schools in general. Buildings. —During the year eleven new schools were built and twelve schools enlarged. During recent years the question of accommodation for teachers in rural districts has become increasingly acute, and constitutes one of the most difficult problems the Board has to deal with. In some districts it has been found at times impossible to secure accommodation for a teacher, and so a school has had to remain closed. Even under most favourable conditions it will be impossible to provide by any system of buildings residences in all rural areas, and if a school is to be carried on efficiently ■the residents must take such steps as will result in the provision of suitable accommodation for teachers. The growth in population of the Auckland Education District has been considerable, and has given rise to a building programme of great magnitude. The increasing of floor-space authorized by the Department, from 10 square feet to 12 square feet per capita, has operated in the same direction. The high prices of building-materials, the shortage of labour and of timber, have been serious difficulties with which the Board has had to contend. However, the Board has the satisfaction of knowing that the overcrowding problem is gradually being solved, and can now look forward with some confidence to having in a few years adequate accommodation for all children in its district. In urban areas the Board, in accordance with a scheme formulated by its Advisory Inspector, is making provision for future requirements, so that in the future it is unlikely that congested conditions such as have militated against education during past years will exist. Finance.— The income for the year ended 31st December, 1920, totalled £690,342 2s. 10d., and the expenditure £698,162 14s. Id. These figures serve to some; extent to indicate the increase in the Board's activities.

Appendix B.

General Fund. —By the Education Amendment Act of 1919 the Board's income for general expenses was seriously diminished. The capitation grant of ss. formerly allowed to Boards was curtailed to 3s. 9d., together with a basic grant of £750. This curtailment resulted last year in a diminished revenue to the Board, for general purposes, amounting to £2,936 12s. This has had somewhat serious effects. The Board has been unable- to render help to Committees out of revenue as formerly, and was compelled last year to intrench upon its General Fund in order to do so. During the year the School Fund allowance to Committees was increased, but the increase was not sufficiently high to enable Committees to carry out their important duties without calling upon the Board for assistance. In some cases School Committees resigned as a protest against the inadequacy of the funds at their disposal. The Board, with a diminished revenue, is, however, not in a position to continue a system of grants, and hopes that the Legislature will see its way in the near future to increase still further the School Fund allowance to Committees. Training College. —There has been a considerable increase in the number of students at the Auckland Training College. At the present time 278 students are in attendance —viz., 206 women and 72 men. The arrangement brought about by the Minister between the Board and the Auckland City Council whereby the Board has been able to obtain the use of the building known as the annexe in the Domain grounds for a period of three years, as auxiliary accommodation to the Auckland Training College, has enabled the Board to make provision for the training of so large a number of young teachers. The Board cannot, however, too strongly impress the necessity for the erection in Auckland of a permanent training college capable of training a sufficient number of young people to meet the requirements of this rapidly growing district. Nor can the Board too strongly urge the necessity for the provision of hostels to provide a home for those coming from a distance. At present the students are taught in two separate buildings, and practice teaching in a large number of other buildings. The question of a site for a new training college has not yet been determined, but is now under the consideration of the Board and the Minister. For the purpose of affording extra facilities for the training of trairung-college students in country-school work the Board established model schools at Richmond Road and Eden Park, and a junior model school at Richmond Road. For the purpose of affording training to uncertificated teachers and to pupil-teachers and probationers who have completed their course but are not prepared to enter the Training College the Board has in contemplation the establishment at as early a date as possible of model schools in various centres. It is hoped that such a course will bring nearer the day when assistants may be substituted for pupil-teachers in all our larger schools. District High Schools. —During the year the Board continued to give serious attention to the district high schools under its jurisdiction, with a view to their improvement, particularly in respect of staffing. To this end it obtained the permission of the Department for some of the Inspectors to furnish a special report upon district high schools. Their reports indicate that some advancement has already been made, and the Board hopes that this advancement will continue. During the year district high schools were established at Tβ Awamutu and Whakatane. The Board is satisfied that work of high educational value can be attained in district high schools. Organizing Teachers. —The system of appointing organizing teachers in rural centres has now been in operation for more than a year, and from reports to hand the Board is satisfied that the cause of education in rural areas has been much advanced by the introduction of the system. The Board proposes at an early date to obtain a report from the teachers who have come under the guidance of the organizing teachers, with a view to instituting a comparison between their present and their former efficiency. Aided Schools. —The Board records with much satisfaction that the provision made for aided schools has been increased. The teacher of an aided school now receives £15 per capita on the average attendance instead of £12. In this connection it is interesting to note that the Board has appointed an itinerant teacher at Onoke to teach the children of scattered settlers in an isolated district who otherwise could not obtain the benefits of education. Exchange of Teachers. —Under the " Hands across the Sea " movement an exchange of two Auckland teachers was effected with two Canadian teachers. The reports indicate that the experience gained in another land by the Board's teachers will be of value to education in the Dominion. Exchange of teachers is one of the best possible means of promoting the knowledge of, and friendly interest in, the educational activities of a sister nation. Supply of School Stationery.-— During the year the Board set up a committee to consider the question oi the supply of school stationery and requisites to schools at a reduced cost. It has already concluded that a very material saving can be effected to School Committees and parents by the setting-up of a stationery department as part of the Board's activities. The committee is now considering the best means by which it can be effected. School Holidays.---The Board has resolved, from the beginning of 1922, to synchronize as far as possible the primary-school with'the secondary-school holidays. This, it is believed, will be a great convenience both to parents and scholars. I have, &c, The Hon. tie Minister of Education, Wellington. E. 0. Banks, Chairman.

TARANAKI. Sir,— New Plymouth, 31st March, 1921. I have the honour, on behalf of the Board, to present the following report of its proceedings for the year 1920 :— Board Members. —The constitution of the Board is as follows : Urban District of New Plymouth — Messrs. R. J. Deare and S. G. Smith, M.P. ; Central Ward—Messrs. R. Masters, M.P., and H. Trimble ; North Ward —Messrs. F. Hoskin and P. J. H. White (Chairman) ; South. Ward —Messrs. H. J. Eaves and A. Lees. Schools. — The number of schools under the jurisdiction of the Board at the end of the year was 158. The following new schools were opened during the year : Arawhata, Moeroa, Mangatupoto, Mangakara, Tawhiti, Waikaka, and Whareroa ; whilst the Pehu Household School was closed. Teaching Staff. —The number of teachers, pupil-teachers, and probationers at the end of the year was 34-6, as under : — Male. Female. Total. Head teachers .. .. .. . . . . 45 26 71 Sole teachers . . .. . . .. . . 15 68 83 Assistants .. .. .. .. ..13 124 137 Pupil-teachers . . .. .. . . . . 2 25 27 Probationers .. .. .. .. .. 6 22 28 81 265 346 Finance. — The credit balance brought forward from 1919 was £3,815 os. 2d., and the receipts from all sources £138,730 9s. lid. The total expenditure was £138,767 4s. 9d., leaving a credit balance at 31st December of £3,778 ss. 4d. Buildings. —During the year new schools were erected at Marakopa, Paraketu Valley, Tawhiti, and Mangatupoto. Additions were carried out at Egmont Village, Inglcwood, Oco, Tokaora, Whangamomona, Mimi, Biverlea schools ; and washliouses were erected and coppers installed in the following residences : Lepperton, Bell Block, Huiroa, Midhirst, Omata, Pukearuhe, Toko, Urenui, Waitara, Cardiff, Mahoe, Egmont Village, Kaimiro, Uruti, Inglewood, and Whangamomona. The Opunake School, having been destroyed by fire, was rebuilt. Considerable difficulty was again experienced during the year in obtaining adequate supplies of material and labour. The Board's workshop has proved a great convenience in the matter of turning out the whole of the joinery and furniture, otherwise we should have had considerable delays in obtaining same from outside sources. Notwithstanding the shortage of labour, a considerable amount of painting and general work was carried out. Manual and Technical Instruction. —During the year technical instruction has been carried out at New Plymouth, Stratford, Hawera, and Eltham. New technical high schools are being built at Hawera and Stratford, the former being partially completed. A technical hostel is also in course of erection in connection with the Hawera Technical High School. Compulsory evening classes are carried on in the above centres, and are doing fairly good work. Physical Instruction. -Judging by the reports of the physical instructors, the physical work at schools generally is still improving. The value of the work is apparently being realized by teachers, who are taking fuller advantage than ever of the facilities offered them. Manual. —Manual training in woodwork and cookery has been carried out at New Plymouth, Waitara, Inglewood, Stratford, Eltham, and Hawera. Agricultural Instruction. —Primary Schools : Again very good work has been done throughout the whole district, and ample evidence of the value of this subject and the soundness of the instruction is shown by the improvements that have been made to many school-grounds. Secondary : Agriculture and dairy science has been carried out in Now Plymouth Technical College, Hawera Technical High School, and Stratford District High School. At Stratford the boys carry out observational work in connection with the model dairy farm. Cow-judging has been enthusiastically carried out in New Plymouth and Stratford, and the usual good display of produce from schools was exhibited at the New Plymouth Winter Show. Stratford, District High School. - Despite the changes in the school staff, the work of the Stratford District High School's secondary department retains a satisfactory efficiency. The school now provides, in addition to the ordinary literary studies, full courses of training in domestic and rural science and in commercial work. For these subjects special instructors, in addition to the ordinary staff, are employed. The whole of the work of the school has a bias towards agriculture, and that important subject is taken as a study in every class. Instruction Classes for Teachers. —Saturday, classes were conducted at New Plymouth and Stratford for the instruction of teachers in the following subjects : Geometrical, freehand, and blackboard drawing, home science, hygiene, and agriculture. A very successful winter school was also arranged, when those teachers who are unable to attend Saturday classes were given continuous instruction for a fortnight in the above subjects. Teachers who were unable to attend either of the above classes were catered for by special correspondence classes. Attendance. —The following is an abstract showing the number of schools, teachers, and pupils attending schools in the district, beginning with the year 1880 and every period of ten years : —

Visiting Schools. —As previously, members of the Board visited most of the schools in the district, and were pleased to find that in almost all cases considerable improvement in school grounds and surroundings was noticeable. The Board recognizes and records with appreciation the excellent work of its School Committees generally, many having, by their untiring efforts, raised sums of money which have materially helped towards the improvement of their school-grounds, in some cases improvements being so noticeable as to become a model for others. I have, &c, P. J. H. White, Chairman. The Hon. the Minister of Education, Wellington.

WANGANUI. Sir,— Wanganui, 31st March, 1921. I have the honour to present a report on the proceedings of this Board for the year 1920. Board. —The biennial election took place in July. Mr. B. V. Laws was elected for the Wanganui Urban Area, and Mr. A. J. Mahon for the Palmerston North Urban Area. Messrs. A. J. Joblin, W. A. Collins, and H. Mclntyre were re-elected for the North Ward, West Ward, and South Ward respectively. Mr. W. A. Collins was elected Chairman. Mr. P. C. Ereeth (Palmerston North Urban Area), owing to pressure of business, retired at the end of the year. Mr. W. R. Birnie was elected to the vacancy. The Board was represented on other bodies as follows : Wanganui Girls' College Board of Governors, Messrs. E. Pirani, A. Fraser, and W. A. Collins ; Palmerston North High School Board of Governors, Messrs. T. R. Hodder, P. C. Freeth, and J. A. Nash ; Wanganui Technical College Committee, Messrs. W. Bruce, W. A. Collins, and E. V. Laws. Mr. H. Mclntyre was re-elected a member of the Committee of Advice of the Teachers' Training College, Wellington, as representative of the Wanganui, Taranaki, Hawke's Bay, and Nelson Education Districts. Schools and Attendance. —New schools were opened at Matahiwi, Matauia, Pungataua, Tuapaka, and To Miro (Grade 0). Manui and Momohaki (Grade I) were reopened. Tuapaka and Matauia were closed by the end of the year, and also Denlair, Hiwi, Watershed Road, Cook's Mill, Lacy's Landing, Makohau, Makohine Valley, and Ohutu. Kakatahi was closed temporarily. At the close of the year there were open 198 main and four side schools, graded as follows : Grade 0, 17 ; Grade I, 58 ; Grade 11, 34 ; ■ Grade lIIa, 47 ; Grade lIIb, 12 ; Grade I Vα, 9 ; Grade IVb, 3 ; Grade IVc, 3 ; Grade Vα, 1 ; Grade Vβ, 4; Grade Vc, 2 ; Grade Yd, 1 ; Grade Vlb, 1 ; Grade VIIa, 3 ; Grade VIIb, 1 ; Grade Vlljj, 1 ; Grade VIIe, 1. The total roll at the end of the year was 15,748, being an increase of 303 over the previous year. There were 143 pupils receiving instruction in the secondary departments of district high schools, an increase of nine. The average attendance for the year was 13,394, and the average weekly roll number 15,584. Although the roll at the end of the year was 303 above the roll at the end of 1920, the average attendance for the year shows a decrease of 590. These figures will give an indication of the extent to which the attendance was affected by sickness during the year. The average attendance expressed as a percentage of the average roll was 85-9, the lowest for some years. The Attendance Officer reports that the year was the worst he has known for sickness amongst pupils. He paid 273 visits to schools : 166 informations were laid against parents, and 144 convictions were recorded out of 156 cases proceeded with. Teachers. —The number of adult teachers in the Board's service, excluding eleven relieving teachers, was 420. Of these 120 were uncertificated, sixteen being in charge of Grade 0 schools, forty-nine in charge of Grade I schools, seven in charge of Grade II schools, and forty-eight were assistants receiving salaries of Grades 1 and 11. There were ten male and forty-one female pupilteachers and five male and thirty-three female probationers, a total of eighty-nine, on the staff at the close of the year. The Board was able to appoint every qualified applicant at the beginning of the current year. National Scholarships. —The total annual value the twenty-three Junior and eighteen Senior Scholarships in force at the end of the year was £925 10s. Conveyance and Boarding Allowance. —Conveyance allowance was paid for an average of 120 children in attendance at twenty-five schools, and boarding-allowance for an average of twenty-three children in attendance at ten schools. The total expenditure was £653 18s. 4d. Voluntary Contributions.—£l,273 ss. 2d. was received during the year by way of voluntary contributions in cash towards the cost of carrying out improvements to grounds, purchase of sites, equipment, and library books ; £283 16s. 6d. was received for manual and technical classes. The current year promises to be a record year in the matter of voluntary contributions, at least £3,000 having been raised to date. Medical Inspection. —Excellent work has been done by the School Medical Officer. She has succeeded in securing the co-operation of parents, many of whom attend the schools while their children are being medically examined. They appreciate this privilege, and there is no doubt that a much larger percentage of the parents than formerly give heed to the medical reports and see that their children receive medical attention. Numerous requests are made by parents for the examination of children who are in classes above those usually examined. Tooth-brush drill is now carried out daily in the majority of schools in the district, and teachers report that there is a great improvement in the condition of the children's mouths and in their general health. Rarely does one find a teacher desiring to discontinue tooth-brush drill once he has got it established. The Board has given the use of a room in its office for a school dental clinic, and it is expected that the Department will shortly be able to appoint an officer to take charge.

Organized lunch is now a feature in most of our schools. One needs to be present during the lunch-hour at one of the schools to fully appreciate the value of the innovation. Physical Instruction. —The Department's physical instructors have carried out their duties faithfully, and I only wish that they could spend more time in our district. Organizing Teachers. -Good results have followed the appointment of the organizing teachers, and although in some cases the labours of these officers have been in vain, on account of teachers who had been under their care leaving the service just when they were reaching the efficient stage, there is no doubt that their work is bearing fruit, and that the efficiency of the teachers of small country schools is improving. Owing to the large number of backblocks schools in this district, which are too remote to attract certificated teachers, there will always exist here the necessity for some such system as the present system of organizing teachers. Manual and Technical Instruction. —A grant of £15,000 was made by the Department for the erection of a technical high school at Feilding. The building will be ready for occupation by the beginning of next year. For Wanganui a grant was made for the enlargement of the motor-engineering and blacksmithing department, and this work is now completed. A site was secured for a boys' hostel, but as there seemed little prospect of the building being proceeded with in the near future the Board leased premises, which will serve the purpose for the present. A plumbing and engineering workshop was erected at Marton Technical School. Buildings for cookery and woodwork classes have recently been erected at Ohakune. Buildings and Sites. —The new school at Foxton, in brick, was completed during the year. The new Queen's Park School, also in brick, was completed early this year. These buildings are the first in this district to be heated by means of the hot-water radiator system. The new Campbell Street (I'almorston North) Infants' School and Main School, both in brick, were commenced. New schools were erected at Moawhango, Kakariki, Bainesse, and additions made to the schools at Rangiotu and Lytton Street. New latrine buildings, in brick, were erected at Terrace End. Works commenced or in prospect include new schools at Maungaroa Road, Glyneath, Mount Biggs, Putorino, Hukapapa ; additions at Wanganui East; and new residences at Upper Tutaenui and Umumuri. A large amount of repairing and repainting was carried out. It is hoped during the current year to overtake maintenance works which, owing to the abnormal conditions which obtained, fell somewhat in arrear during the past few years. Sites were donated at Hukapapa, Mount Biggs, Glyneath, Putorino, Moawiiango, and were purchased at Rapamii and Castleclifl. Additions were made by purchase to the sites at Keith Street Infants', Wanganui East, Terrace End, and Campbell Street. A portion of the adjoining education reserve was secured for the Taonui School. Finance. — The net credit balance at the end of the year was £4,167 9s. 6d. The Workshop Account was in debit to the extent of £1,231 16s. 2d., but there was stock on hand to that value. The liees Bequest and Alexander Bequest Trust Accounts were in credit £1,131 ss. lid. and £2,437 respectively. I have, &c, The Hon. the Minister of Education, Wellington. W. A. Collins, Chairman.

HAWKE'S BAY. Sir,— Napier, 31st March, 1921. In accordance with the provisions of the Education Act, 1914, the Education Board of the District of Hawke's Bay has the honour to submit the following report of its proceedings for the year 1920 :— Board. —The personnel of the Board at the end of the year was as follows : Napier Urban Area— Messrs. J. Clark Thomson and G. W. Venables ; Gisborne Urban Area—Messrs. G. T. Wildish and L. T. Burnard ; North Ward—Messrs. W. Oates and J. R, Kirk ; Middle Ward—Messrs. G. F. Roach and G. McKay ; South Ward —Messrs. E. A. Goodger and R. Soundy. The Board's representation on other educational bodies was as follows : Dannevirke High School Board— Rev. A. Grant, Messrs. R. Soundy and T. H. G. Lloyd ; Napier High School Board—Messrs. G. F. Roach and R. L. Paterson ; Gisborne High School Board —Mr. L. T. Burnard ; Napier Technical College Board —Messrs. R. L. Patorson, R. M. Chadwick, G. W. Venables, and S. H. Tuck ;• Waipawa Technical Classes Association— Messrs. G. McKay, C. H. Critchley, and H. M. Rathbone. Mr. W. L. Dunn, formerly of the Education Department, was appointed Secretary in place of Major G. Crawshaw, and took up his duties early in the year. Number of Schools. —The number of schools in operation at the end of 1919 was 140. During 1920 new schools were opened at Elands, Kaiana, Poututu, Pukehou, Tahunga, Tamumu, and Waerengaokuri; while schools were closed at Hihiroroa, Tangitere, Tβ Hua, Waikari, and Wigan. Side schools attached to Hastings District High School and Woodville District High School were established as separate schools, known respectively as Parkvale and Woodlands Road, during the year. There were 144 schools in operation at the end of the year. Attendance. —The number on the roll at the end of 1920 was 14,489, an increase of 532 during the year. The attendance for the year averaged 12,214, being 86-5 per cent, of the average roll (14,127). The attendance was greatly affected by epidemic sickness, as the low percentage of average attendance to the roll number indicates. In 1919 the percentage of attendance to roll number was 90-7, and on a similar basis in 1920 the attendance would have shown an increase of 395.

Teachers. —On the 31st December, 1920, there were in the Board's service teachers classed as follows :—

Difficulty has again been experienced in obtaining suitable teachers for the more remote country schools. There is frequently a lack of suitable accommodation, but on the whole it may be said that the higher salaries now paid have enabled the Board to fill, these positions with a better class of teacher. The further increases granted at the end of the year will go far in bringing about a more efficient and more contented service. A noticeable feature has been the increase in the number of English and Scottish trained teachers who have applied for positions. All these applicants have secured employment, and in every instance they have proved themselves to be most efficient members of the teaching profession. These teachers complain, however, that, no matter how high their English credentials, they are awarded only a New Zealand D certificate —the lowest. Judging by their credentials the Board is of opinion that in a number of these cases at least a higher certificate was justified. Instruction of Teachers. —Saturday classes for the training of pupil-teachers, probationers, and uncertificated teachers in elementary science, drawing, agriculture, and dairy science were held at Napier and Danncvirke. Classes in vocal music were also conducted for head teachers and assistants. May term classes were held at Gisborne in the subjects of vocal music, illustrative drawing, and elementary science. A summer school was conducted at Hastings for three weeks in December for the purpose of supplying the practical work necessary in agriculture and dairy science for teachers' D and C certificate examinations, first aid for D, and school method for D. A refresher course in physical instruction was also included. The correspondence course was primarily established for uncertificated teachers, but this year pupil-teachers and probationers were allowed to join Group IV if they were unable to attend Saturday classes in that group. In general, the work of those in the correspondence classes cannot be considered eminently satisfactory. For the current year it is proposed to charge a fee for admission to the correspondence classes, the fee to be refunded if satisfactory progress is made. From the results obtained in the various certificate examinations the Board has every reason to feel gratified with the success of the training classes. Hawke's Bay is included in the district served by the Wellington Training College, and every year pupil-teachers are sent to complete their training. The Board feels, however, that the Training College should extend its influence in the district, and to this end renews the suggestion made last year that Training College extension lectures be given from time to time. District High Schools. —At the beginning of the year a secondary department was established at Waipukurau. As in previous years, the first- and second-year pupils of the secondary departments of the district high schools took the rural course. " The aim of the course is to provide a good general education in secondary subjects, and also to prepare the pupils for the Public Service Entrance Examination. The science work has been continued for the third and fourth year, thus enabling pupils to take science for their Matriculation Examination. During the year a commercial course was instituted at the Hastings District High School, and has been very successful. The average attendance of pupils in the secondary departments for the year was as follows : Hastings, 66 ; Waipawa, 36 ; Waipukurau, 32 ; Woodville, 38 : total, 172. Manual and Technical Instruction. —Great difficulty was again experienced in obtaining the necessary material for the work of the elementary handwork classes, and funds did not allow of sufficient supplies being obtained. Needlework has been satisfactorily taught in all schools. Special classes were conducted at nine schools in sole charge of male teachers, but in six schools no instruction was given, as it was impossible to arrange for a competent instructress. In agriculture, dairy science, and elementary science 112 classes were recognized for capitation purposes during the year. There is still a considerable number of teachers untrained in science work, and who are therefore unable, to take the science programme required by the syllabus. In woodwork, cookery, and dressmaking 142 classes were conducted at centres to which the pupils from the surrounding schools came for instruction. Classes were in operation at Gisborne, Napier, Hastings, Waipawa, Waipukurau, Dannevirke, and Woodville. The manual-training classes at Napier, which had been discontinued for several years, were resumed in 1920. Napier Technical High School. —Steps have been taken to acquire a new site for the Technical High School in Napier. This has been rendered possible by the action of the Napier Borough Council in agreeing to vest in the Board a part of its freehold in the borough, worth between £3,000 and £4,000. The interests in several Harbour Board leases are being acquired, and. with the closing of an adjoining street an area of about 5 acres will be available. The Technical High School Board is contributing some £1,850 out of its own funds for the acquisition of the site.

Gisborne Technical School. —Twenty-one evening technical and continuation classes, with a total average attendance of 191, have been conducted by the Board during the past year at Gisborne, and have been very successful. Physical Instruction. —An instructress has been permanently located in the district during the past year, and more attention has therefore been given to this branch of work. Medical Inspection. —A School Medical Officer is now attached to this district, and inspection has proceeded, steadily throughout the year. To make the scheme a success, however, more frequent visits are necessary, which would entail a larger medical staff. Parents take a keen interest in the inspection of their children, and the majority are only too willing to carry out any advice given them, by the Medical Officer. Dental Clinics. —No dental clinic has yet been established in this district. This matter was brought under your notice last year, and it is hoped that a sufficient staff will soon be available to permit of the establishment of one or more local clinics. Buildings. —Renovation and painting of schools and residences has been proceeded with steadily throughout the year The difficulty of providing necessary materials, together with the high cost of labour and materials, has compelled the Board to curtail its activities in this connection. The new buildings programme undertaken during the year was the heaviest in the history of the Board. New schools were completed at Tahunga and Hastings East, while the infant department of the new Napier Central School was completed. The main portion of the latter school was completed in time for the opening of school in 1921. Additions to existing schools were made at Gisborne East, Gisborne West, Hastings West, Napier West, and Napier South, and to the Waipawa woodwork-room. The Waipukurau School was added to and entirely remodelled, and sewerage connection was made to the Gisborne West School. New residences were erected at Ngatapa and Twyford, while additions to existing residences were made at Motuhora, Puketitiri, Rissington, Taradale, and Takapau. The residence at Te Karaka was rebuilt. The following new works were in progress at the end of 1920 : Taradale, new infant school ; Napier Central, new school ; Havelock North, additions to residence ; Waipukurau, removal of residence ; Olive Grange, new school; Pukeh.amoam.oa, new school; Hastings West, installation of hot-water heating ; Mangaheia, new school ; Tikokino, remodelling of school; Fernhill, remodelling and additions. Finance. —The receipts for the year totalled £182,913 Bs. 5d., and the payments £189,845 6s. 3d. The credit cash balance on all accounts on the 31st December, 1920, was £3,088 10s. 7d, 1 have, &c, The Hon. the Minister of Education, Wellington. G. F. Roach, Chairman.

WELLINGTON. SIR,— Wellington, 31st March, 1921. In accordance with the requirements of the Education Act, 1914, 1 beg to submit the following report of the Education Board of the District of Wellington for the year 1920 : — Board. —The Board membership at the end of the year was :■■ —Urban areas : (1) Wellington City and former Boroughs of Karori, Onslow, and Miramar —Messrs. Thomas Forsyth (Chairman), R. A. Wright, M.P., J. J. Clark, and A. J. White ; (2) Hutt and Petone—Messrs. G. T. London and E. P. Rishworth. Rural area: (1) Hutt-Horowhenua Ward Messrs. W. H. Field, M.P., and C. I. Harkncss ; (2) Wairarapa Ward —Messrs. T. Moss and W. T. Grundy ; (3) Marlborough Ward — Messrs. R. McCallum, M.P., and E. H. Penny. The Board's representative managers of technical schools were : Wellington■- -Messrs. T. Forsyth, J. J. Clark, A. J. White, A. G. Wallace, L. R. Partridge, G. L. Stewart; Petone —Messrs. G. T. London, H. Baldwin, 1). McKenzie, and W. B. Nicholson ; Masterton —Mr. W. T. Grundy. Schools and Attendance. —Twenty-six schools were closed, and thirty-six were opened or reopened, so that at the end of the year there were in operation 256 schools, an increase of ten since the end of 1919. The following figures give the average roll and average attendance numbers for the years 1919 and 1920 :— Average Average Roll Numbers. Attendance. Year 1920 .. .. .. .. .. ..24,760 21,683 Year 1919 .. .. .. .. .. .. 24,785 22,692 Decrease .. .. .. .. 25 1,009 The average attendance and also the admission of very young children were much affected by epidemic illness extending over a large part of the year, and the average, 87-5 per cent., is the lowest for many years. The following are the percentages in the years named: 1920, 875 ; 1919, 91-5; 1918, 90-0 ; 1917, 906 ; 1916, 89-2. It was found necessary to take proceedings in fifty-five cases of persistent irregularity. The convictions recorded were forty-five, one was dismissed, and the remainder of the oases were withdrawn on condition of future regularity. The Board wishes to record again its opinion that legislation should be enacted imposing a penalty on any employer of a child of school age during school-hours.

Teaching Staff. —The following were the numbers of teachers, pupil-teachers, and probationers in the service of the Board at the end of the year : —

Grand totals : — Males. Females. jTotals. Certificated .. .. .. .. ..173 364 537 Licensed .. .. .. .. .. 6 5 11 Uncertificated . . . . .. .. . . 8 125 133 Total adults .. .. .. .. 187 494 681 Pupil-teachers . . .. . . .. .. 9 28 37 Total teaching staff .. .. ..196 522 718 Probationers .. .. .. . . 23 58 8] Grand totals .. .. .. .. 219 580 799 Including probationers, the staff numbers have increased by thirty-eight (males, eight; females, thirty). The number of uncertificated teachers includes those who have passed the examination in whole or in part, but have not yet been granted the certificate. With regard to the entrance of young people into the service as pupil-teachers or probationers, the improved rates of payment in force since April, 1920, came too late to increase the number of entrants. The very keen competition of Government Departments and commercial houses has always operated against the Education service in Wellington, and a shortage of supply was again experienced, though on the whole the standard of those entering the service was slightly higher. The increases in salary offered to country teachers have certainly induced a number to undertake country work, but still not nearly enough, to ensure all-round efficiency. Difficulty is still experienced in filling the remote schools and the lower-grade country assistantships. It is worthy of note that in those districts where a teacher is assured of a friendly welcome and a comfortable home much less difficulty is experienced in filling vacancies than in those districts where the living-conditions are unsatisfactory. Where these latter conditions obtain, the difficulty of efficient staffing is quite appreciably increased. Instruction of Teachers. —Arrangements were made for the following courses of instruction : (1.) Week-end classes at Wellington in drawing and handwork, home science, hygiene and physiology, and singing ; and at Masterton in drawing and handwork, hygiene, physiology, and first aid, and singing. (2.) A correspondence course in preparation for the certificate, open to all uncertificated teachers within the district, arranged by the Vice-Principal of the Training College, was continued throughout the year, and, though arranged somewhat late, the report shows that it proved highly successful. (3.) A continuous course at Blenheim was held during the last fortnight of the year, also in preparation for the certificate. (4.) A course in agriculture and nature-study was held at Masterton by the Supervisor and assistant instructors during the second-term holidays, and it proved a very great assistance to those who were able to attend. (5.) A special course of instruction was arranged by the Inspector of Schools at Blenheim, for the purpose of assisting young and inexperienced teachers in charge of small schools to greater efficiency in managing their schools. A model school of twenty children was provided from the Blenheim School. The benefit derived from the class was undoubtedly increased by the fact that the young women lived together in the Technical School under the efficient management of the Inspector and his wife. Training College. —The following are the essential statistics : The total number of students was 186 —44 men and 142 women. First-year students, 84 ; second-year students, 102. Students classified : Division A, 135 ; B, 37 ;C,4 ; D, 10. There were admitted fourteen returned soldiers. Students , Hostel. —The Board strongly supports the oft-repeated plea of the Principal for hostel accommodation for students of the Training College whose homes are outside of Wellington. The Board very much regrets that practically no advance has been made, although the lapse of another year and the increased numbers of students merely serve to emphasize the urgency of the need. The Board repeats that as the great number of young people drawn to State Departments in Wellington fill up every available place, suitable or less than suitable, accommodation for students, which is essential for efficiency in study, is not to be found. The facts are admitted, and the Board urges that the want be supplied. In this connection the Board wishes to express its grateful thanks for the fine service rendered to our students by the philanthropic owners of the Friends', the Students', and the Y.W.C.A. Hostels. Report of Inspectors. —It is very satisfactory to note from the report of the Inspectors of Schools that notwithstanding the admitted difficulties of the past year, resulting largely from varied epidemics, the efficiency of the work of the district as a whole is shown to have been well maintained, and that with few exceptions the least satisfactory work is to be found in the very smallest schools, the stalling

of which presents endless difficulty. The Board is pleased to note that the effect of the higher ideals and the more efficient practice which have their origin in the Training College is year by year becoming more apparent as the number of former students engaged in the profession increases. Secondary Education. —The average attendances for the year 1920 at the district high schools in the district were —Carterton, 42 ; Eketahuna, 40 ; Greytown, 10 ; Hutt, 81 ; Levin, 38 ; ■ Mastorton, 109 ; Pahiatua, 26 ; Pctone, 53 : total, 349. At Martinborough, which is about twelve miles from the railway, the educational needs have justified the establishment of a district high school, opening in February, 1921. The Board heartily approves of the recent acquirement of sites at Lower Hutt and Masterton for secondary schools to be erected in the immediate future, and the decision to establish a second girls' high school in Wellington, as being on the lines of immediate need. Scholarships. —There were current at the end of 1920 thirty-one Senior and sixty-three Junior Scholarships. On the 31st December, 1920, eight Senior and twelve Junior Scholarships expired. On the results of the 1920-21 examinations twenty-two Senior and twenty-eight Junior Scholarships were awarded. Holidays. —The synchronization of the holidays observed by all public educational institutions has proved very beneficial. The benefit would be increased if private schools observed the same dates. School Libraries. —The Board again commends the Wellington civic library scheme. The work of the past year embraces twenty-nine schools, to which ninety-nine separate collections were sent, comprising 8,401 volumes. From these 103,508 individual loans were made. An analysis of the subjects shows that, while healthy fiction forms nearly half, biography, history and travel, literature, useful arts, natural science, and general literature found over five thousand readers ; over two thousand volumes of fine arts were taken out; and quite a considerable number of volumes on philosophy, theology, sociology, and philology were issued. Several schools outside the city area participated in the benefit by payment. The Board has been also pleased to note the establishment of a central-library scheme embracing a number of schools in South Wairarapa. The Board has found the necessary book-cases, the community has recognized the value of the scheme by substantial contribution, and the teachers, with a highly creditable enthusiasm, have undertaken the distribution and exchange from headquarters at Feathorston. The sum of over £200 has been received, which, with a pound-for-pound subsidy, has enabled the purchase of over two thousand books to be made. Manual and Technical Instruction. —The number under instruction in the following recognized classes were — Schools. Pupils. Agriculture .. .. .. .. .. ..122 2,170 Home science . . . . . . .. .. 49 1,687 Woodwork .. .. .. .. .. ..46 1,930 Handwork .. .. .. .. .. ..227 20,447 Swimming and life-saving .. .. .. .. 14 1,168 The Board would be pleased if the number of those instructed in swimming, large as that is, were greatly increased, as in a maritime country, with many deep rivers, efficiency in the art is of no small value. Courses in home science, woodwork, and agriculture were pursued with diligence. School Environment. —The Board notes with pleasure the growing sense of pride in the surroundings of the school. Notably fine schemes of improvement have been undertaken by many Committees both in town and country. Plantations are increasing, and flower-beds are cultivated, and the Board for the sixth year supplied trees where they were required. Subsidy was claimed on £1,188 10s. 6d. raised by sixty-two School Committees for ground improvements. Buildings. —The difficulty of procuring material and, in the case of country work, efficient labour increased rather than diminished during the past year, and led to a most regrettable delay in the completion of practically all the major works of the district, and to a reduction of the maintenance works which it was possible to accomplish, and the work undertaken did not therefore represent a proportionate amount of maintenance falling to a single year. Nevertheless a considerable amount of work was undertaken, which may be sumlnarized as follows : Overhaul of thirty-eight schools (seven in part only) and twenty-four residences ; hot water provided in two residences ; drainage, sanitation, asphalt, and ground improvements at eleven schools, besides minor works at a number of schools. New schools were erected at Solway (two rooms), Mangaroa (one room), Castlepoint (one room), Poroporo (one room), Pukenui (one room), and Deep Creek (one room). The last two were to replace buildings destroyed by fire. A residence was built at Ballance, and an addition was made to the residence at Ohau, improvements being effected to several others. Additions were erected at Eastern Hutt, Hataitai, Waterfalls (Marlborough), and Johnsonville, and the Tiraumea School was removed to the new site. The chief works under way were : Martinborough, new school ; To Ore Ore, new school; South Miramar, new school ;Te Aro, infant department; Mastorton West, additions ; and Muritai, additions ; and works projected which the Board considers should be carried out as soon as financial conditions improve are : Training College, student accommodation ; Hutt Technical School ; new schools at Newlands, Kaiwarra, Mornington, Mount Cook (consolidation), Newtown, Picton, Silverstream ; and additions at Clyde Quay (Infants'), Petone West (Infants'), Carterton, Paraparaumu, Springlands (remodelling), Brooklyn, Hataitai, Seatoun, and Mitchelltown. The liberal policy approved by Parliament having for its purpose the acquirement of more spacious sites and the erection of new schools to replace old schools which, while good in their day, have manifestly served their purpose, was pursued as far as the authorities would permit, and the Board acknowledges with appreciation that its major proposals have been advanced, though, owing to unfavourable circumstances, not to the extent anticipated. The acquirement of sufficient sites or of site additions was under way or had been completed at Mount Cook, Newtown, Mornington, Kaiwarra, Te Aro, Featherston, Greytown (by exchange), Lyall Bay, Petone West, Terrace, Upper Hutt, Wadestown,

Picton, and Springlands. The older schools of Wellington City are so much below present-day standards of requirement that, but for the war, they must have been replaced before to-day, and the Board urges that their reconstruction should not be delayed a day beyond the period of financial compulsion. Finance. —There was on deposit with the Public Trustee, the Bank of Now Zealand, and in warloan certificates on the 31st December, 1920, a total sum of £14,000. Owing to the fact that Government grants due to the Board were not received until after the close of the year, there was on that date (31st December) a debit balance of £1,541 16s. 10d. on the current account. Outstanding cheques amounted to £730 10s. 7d. The net balance to credit on the 31st December, 1920, was £11,727 12s. 7d. The receipts for the year amounted to £323,058 16s. 7d., and the payments to £319,726 ss. 2d., the excess of receipts over payments having been £3,332 11s. sd. This sum added to the net credit balance on Ist January, 1920 -viz., £8,395 Is. 2d.— leaves the net balance at 31st December £11,727 12s. 7d., as stated above. The Education System. —The year has been one of much critical examination of the education system. The Minister and his officers, the Boards, the Committees, and the teachers have been trying to contribute something to the removal of defects and difficulties. Nothing but good can come of honest criticism, so long as the real purpose is not overlooked—namely, the good of the child. In reference to the recent legislation which determines promotion on the basis of the grading, I wish to assure you that my Board will endeavour to perfect the method and obtain from it the very best results possible. The Board heartily approves of the substantial increase in salary afforded to teachers during the year. As, however, the competent teacher who desires steady promotion must at present obtain it by promotion to a higher grade, most generally in other schools, the number of changes has been so great as to endanger the maximum efficiency of the service, and it becomes urgently necessary to devise some modification of the existing enactments which shall give fair increase of emolument to the deserving teacher without, in the great majority of cases, the present necessity of frequent change from school to school. Some modification of the present system, on lines similar to those of the Civil Service should bo effected, and, if possible in these services, should be equally possible in the Education service. Decentralization. —The removal of many of the present limitations on administrative action of Boards would result in an appreciable saving of time and money, and involve no sacrifice of efficiency. For instance, under existing regulations the Senior Inspector cannot direct the organizing teacher to any school for necessary organizing service without the previous sanction of the Department. Similarly, the Board cannot appoint a temporary teacher to the staff of the Training College or Normal School without the previous sanction of the Department. Correspondence and. delay are involved. It should be quite possible to effect a large measure of decentralization and yet to maintain the essential integrity and efficiency of the system. This would undoubtedly stimulate that local enthusiasm, which is universally recognized as so valuable a feature of the New Zealand system compared with the purely centralized systems of Australia. Progress. —In regard to expenditure, while limitation has been necessarily imposed on the country by the circumstances of the past seven years, I hold it a mistake to defer a sane policy of progress a day after such a policy is practicable. It is inconceivable that a country which sent one Inmdred thousand men to defend her, and which can afford to spend in one year, for a population of one and a quarter millions, over £7,000,000 on intoxicants, should even suggest long delay in proceeding with its educational projects, already long overdue. The Board feels, sir, that the fine policy of progress and development to which you have addressed yourself with, such signal vigour and success must proceed at the very earliest date possible. Undue economy here, at the expense of the child, is not to be countenanced. I have, &c, The Hon. the Minister of Education, Wellington. T. Fobsytii, Chairman.

NELSON. Sib,— Nelson, 31st March, 1921. I have the honour to present the following report of the proceedings of the Nelson Education Board for the year 1920 :— The Board. —The biannual election of members took place in July last, and resulted in the re-election of Messrs. E. J. Scantlebury (Middle Ward), W. H. Mclntyre (West Ward), W. C. Baigent (North Ward), and Mr. J. W. Treacher (Nelson Urban Area). At the annual meeting in August Mr. F. W. O. Smith was again elected Chairman. The Board's representatives on the Board of Managers, Nelson Technical School, arc Messrs. F. W. 0. Smith, E. J. Scantlebury, and E. E. Boyes ; on the Board of Governors, Nelson College, Mr. F. W. 0. Smith ; and on the Council of Victoria University College, Mr. F. W. O. Smith. The personnel of the Board is as follows : Messrs. F. W. O. Smith (Chairman), E. J. Scantlebury (Middle Ward), Messrs. W. C. Baigent and S. B. Canavan (North Ward), Messrs. W. H. Mclntyre and A. C. Cottrell (West Ward), and Messrs. E. E. Boycs and J. W. Treacher (Nelson Urban Area). Schools. —There were 140 schools, including six side schools in operation at the end of the year. During 1920 new schools were opened at Baton, Big Eiver, Farewell Spit, Katanga, Kongahu, Maruia, McLaren's Bay, Sunnyside, Te Arowhenua, Waikaraka, Wairangi, and Wairoa Gorge. Four schools were closed during the same period. I have again to draw attention to the large number of small schools in the district. The liberal provision made for salaries of teachers of Grade 0 schools has resulted in additional schools being opened, whilst none of the schools which were opened during the year are above Grade 11.

Scholarships. —Senior National Scholarships were awarded to four candidates, and Junior National Scholarships were awarded to five candidates from the Nelson Girls' College, one candidate from the Nelson College, two from the Westport District High School, one from the Reefton District High School, and one each from the Riwaka and Collingwood Schools. Teaching Staff. —At the end of 1920 there were 235 adult teachers in the Board's service. Of those 129 were certificated or licensed teachers and 106 were uncertificated teachers. In the report of the Senior Inspector regret is expressed that the number of uncertificated teachers in the district is unusually large. This, of course, is accounted for by the large number of sole-charge schools in the district. The results secured by the appointment of three organizing teachers have been very gratifying, and the Board has received direct testimony to the value of the work and supervision effected by these teachers. An examination of the Inspector's report on the schools under the supervision of the organizing teachers discloses very satisfactory improvement in the results usually secured from this class of school. District High Schools. —The, secondary department at the Westport District High School has again a large roll number, and the secondary departments at Reefton and Motueka also have satisfactory roll numbers. It is a matter for regret that at Takaka adequate support is not forthcoming for the district high school there. There are several factors militating against the complete success of the district high schools, the principal one undoubtedly being the inability to always secure a suitable teaching staff. It is to be hoped that a satisfactory scheme for post-primary education will be brought into operation as soon as possible. Manual and Technical Instruction. —I am glad to report that this branch of instruction is, on the whole, efficiently catered for in the district. The Westport Technical High School is directly under the Board's control. Very effective training is given in the day engineering class, which continues to be well supported in the matter of attendance. With cificient instructors for engineering, woodwork, domestic science, and commercial subjects technical education is well provided for in this portion of the district. Thanks are due to the Government for providing a substantial grant for the erection of technical high school buildings at Westport. The contract for the erection of the buildings is well under way, and I hope that with the merging of the secondary department of the district high school into the technical high school the Board will have reason to be congratulated on the efforts made to provide for educational advancement in the district. At the beginning of the year the Nelson Technical School was placed under a Board of Managers. Classes for domestic science, woodwork, wool-classing, &c, were also conducted at several rural centres during the year. The Board is pleased that provision has now been made for grading and providing salaries for manual instructors. The capitation system did not operate at all satisfactorily, especially in a district such as ours. With regard to manual instruction, I have to report that, generally speaking, satisfactory work has been done. The manual classes in domestic science, woodwork, and metalwork, conducted at the various centres are, I think, appreciated. The supervision of instruction in agricultural and dairy work leaves something to be desired. The supervisor-instructor has a large territory to cover, with the result, probably, that adherence to definite courses of work is not easy of attainment. Medical and Dental Inspection and Physical Instruction. —The appointments of a resident medical officer, school dental clinic, and physical instructor arc welcomed by the Board. These appointments have naturally resulted in increased attention being paid to the physical condition of a large number of children attending schools, and the work of the officers is highly regarded. Attendance. —The number on the roll at the end of 1920 was 7,000. The attendance for the year averaged 6,176, being 88 per cent, of the average roll. For the fourth year in succession the attendance has been adversely affected by reason of epidemics. 1 desire to thank the Department for the concession made in the computation of attendance in the matter of staffing of schools. Buildings. —There was not a great deal of new building work undertaken during the year. New schools were erected at Wairoa Gorge, Owen Valley, and Katanga, and an addition made to the Tasman Street side school, Nelson. A residence for the head teacher was purchased at Karamea. Three old residences were written off the books, and the side-school building at River Terrace was demolished. The thorough renovation of school buildings has been carried on during the year, and the thanks of the Board are due to the architect for the practical manner in which he has carried out the improvements. In particular I must draw attention to the renovation of the school buildings at Reefton. It was urged upon the Board for some time that the erection of new school buildings at Reefton was a necessity, but the architect, at a cost of less than £700, has placed the school in a thoroughly up-to-date condition. The buildings in the district are generally in first-class order. I trust that the proposals for remodelling a number of schools will be approved of at no distant date. School Committees. —I desire to express the Board's appreciation of the work and co-operation of the School Committees. It is pleasing to record the local interest taken in the welfare of the schools in many portions of the district. Finance. —The Board's General Account is in debit, mainly due to the expenditure incurred in providing motor-cycles for the organizing teachers and in defraying the removal expenses of a number of teachers who were justly entitled to transfer on promotion. The removal expenses come unduly heavy in a district such as ours, and I would again urge the Department to place teachers on transfer in the same position as officers of other Departments. The debit balance on the General Account will be wiped out during the present year. I regret that there are debit balances on two special accounts. The position of the Manual Instruction Account is due to the large purchase of handwork supplies and to the heavy expense incurred in connection, with agricultural instruction. With the improved system of finances for manual and technical instruction I am hoping that the debits on these accounts will be removed before the end of this year. I have, &c, F. W. 0. Smith, Chairman. The Hon. the Minister of Education, Wellington.

CANTERBURY. Sir,— Christchurch, Ist June, 1921. I have the honour to present the following report of the proceedings of the Education Board of the District of Canterbury for the year ended 31st December, 1920: — The Board. —In the month of July, 1920, the biannual election of members took place, resulting in the re-election of Mr. A. Peverill (Christchurch Urban Area), Mr. H. J. Bignell (North-west Ward), Mr. W. P. Spencer (Middle Ward), and Mr. G. W. Armitagc (South Ward), and in the election of Mr. C. S.

The following standing committees were also set up : Buildings —Mr. Armitage (Chairman), Mr. Bignell, Mr. Maze, Mr. Jamieson, Mr. Peverill, Mr. Spencer ; Appointments—Mr. Andrews, Mr. Banks (Chairman), Mr. Gow, Hon. Mr. Grimmond, Mr. Hughes, Mr. Thompson ; Agriculture and Manual and Technical —Mr. Maze (Chairman), Mr. Armitage, Mr. Banks, Mr. Bignell, Hon. Mr. Grimmond, Mr. Hughes ; Finance —Mr. Bignell (Chairman), Mr. Jamieson, Mr. Maze, Mr. Peverill, Mr. Spencer, Mr. Thompson ; Normal School —Mr. Hughes (Chairman), Mr. Banks, Mr. Gow, Mr. Jamieson, Mr. Peverill, Mr. Thompson. Board's Representatives. —During the year several changes took place in the personnel of the Board's representatives on High School Boards. Akaroa : Mr. L. J. Vangioni was elected for the term ending 31st March, 1921, and Mr. A. H. Westenra in respect of term expiring March, 1922. Ashburton : Mr. J. Tucker was re-elected, and Mr. R. Bell was elected in place of the late Mr. W. B. Denshire. Timaru : Mr. J. Maze was elected in place of Mr. C. S. Howard. The representation on other High School Boards remained unaltered, and was as follows : Greymouth —Mr. W. R. Kettle ; Hokitika—Hon. H. L. Michel; Rangiora—Mr. W. A. Banks, Mr. H. Boyd; Waimate—Mr. W. Lindsay, Mr. G. J. A. Shackleton. Boards of Managers of Technical Classes : Akaroa —Mr. J. S. Dodds, Mr. T. Lewitt, Mr. H. Odell; Ashburton—Mr. G. W. Andrews, Mr. R. Galbraith, Mr. F. Watt, J.P, Mr. R. A. Collins ; Christchurch—Mr. C. H. Opic, J.P., Mr. A. Peverill, Mr. G. E. Franklin, J.P., Mr. H. R. Rushbridge, J.P., Mr. W. Jones, Mr. McGregor Wright, Mr. W. H. Cooper, J.P., Mr. W. R. Gahagan, J.P. ; Fairlie —Mr. T. Foden, Rev. A. E. Standage, Mr. J. R. Lack, J.P.; Geraldine— Dr. G. W. Hislop, Mr. T. Sherratt, Mr. T. Hughes, B.A. ; Kaiapoi—Mr. R.

Gow, M.A., Mr. G. Scaley, J.P., Mr. H. Innes-Jones ; Waimate —Mr. E. H. Hassall, Mr. W. Geddes, Mr. S. I. Fitch. School Buildvngs. —The year 1920 was a busy one in the Board's building department. An endeavour was made to overtake much repair work that had been held up during the war, and as many workmen as could be conveniently handled were employed in the various districts renovating and overhauling schools and residences. In addition the Board largely employed its own workshop staffs in the erection of new buildings. Tender work had become so unsatisfactory that the alternative policy, which had been in operation for some years in a comparatively small way, assumed fairly large proportions. The establishing of fully equipped workshops at Christchurch and Greymouth, similar to the one at Timaru, enabled the Board to cope with nearly everything required in the way of buildings, either brick or wood. The following are some of the more important works carried out or started during the year by the Board's staffs: Amberley (technical school); Owenga and Te Roto, Chatham Islands (new schools) ; Hororata (residence) ; Linwood (additions) ; North Brighton (school); South Brighton (school); Opawa (school); Rokeby (school); Phillipstown (technical school) ; Training College (drill-hall) ; Carcw (additions) ; Hook (school) ; Geraldine (technical school) ; Greymouth (technical school); Waibo (school). Buildings have also been provided by purchase or contract at Heathcotc (residence), Maronan (school), Mount Somers (school), and Willowbridge (residence). New sites or additions to existing sites have been acquired at Burwood, Cashmere, Christchurch West, Elmwood, Leeston, Linwood Avenue, Marchwiel (Timaru), Opawa, Phillipstown, Prebbleton, Shirley, Somerfield, Waltham, and Christchurch (manual-training centre). At the date of this report a new school of nine rooms at Phillipstown is also in course of construction. When completed this building will enable the residents to send all their children to one school, a privilege of which, owing to circumstances outside the Board's control, they have been deprived for many years. The maintenance of school buildings during the past year has imposed a heavy financial burden upon the Board. Notwithstanding the additional grant from the Department, the amount available for the purpose has been quite inadequate, owing to the increased cost of repairs and painting. Owing to the financial stringency and the inadequacy of the grants made for maintenance, the Board is compelled for the present to restrict expenditure to matters of extreme urgency, of which School Committees have been informed. Schools. —The number of schools open at the end of the year was 380; of these twenty were aided or household schools. New schools of the household type were opened at Round Hill (Hakataramea), Slatey Creek (Grey), and Tetaho (Ross) ; at Baxter's Mill (Grey) another school was also started. During the year similar schools at Cook's River, Flea Bay, Glen Alton, Gray's Corner, Maungatiro, and Waiho were closed. Owing to the small attendance in the secondary departments, the district high schools at Kaiapoi and Lincoln were disestablished, much to the Board's regret. At the date of this report similar action has been taken by the Department in respect of Darfield. The following

table shows the, number of schools in operation at the end of each year given, also the number of children on the rolls, the number in average attendance, and the percentage of attendance : —

It will be seen that, as compared with the previous year, the percentage of attendance fell from 90-6 to 85-1. This decrease was the result of the widespread epidemic that prevailed among the children during the greater part of the year. Maintenance. —The total expenditure on salaries for the year 1920, including £5,105 11s. 3d. house allowances, £13,132 10s. id. for relieving teachers, and £1,716 18s. 4d. for organizing teachers, was £259,978 4s. 10d. This amount was exclusive of £9,006 3s. 7d. paid to teachers in secondary departments and £16,115 16s. 2d. to training-college students, making a grand total of £285,100 4s. 7d. by way of disbursements in salaries and allowances. The incidental allowances paid to School Committees amounted to £14,303 13s. The following table shows the expenditure on salaries, allowances, and incidentals for each year mentioned : —

School Staffs. —There were 990 teachers in the Board's service at the end of 1920. Of these, 384 were head teachers or in sole charge, 482 were assistants, and 124 pupil-teachers. There were in addition eighty-six probationers, also twenty-eight sewing-mistresses in small schools in charge of male teachers. Conveyance of School-children. —The expenditure on the conveyance of children to school was £4,719 10s. 10d., and on the board of children living a long way from the nearest school £606 15s. In all, 1,333 children were conveyed to school during the year, whilst board allowance was paid, in respect of 113 children. Of the total (£5,326 ss. 10d.) paid in respect of conveyance and board, the Department refunded £5,126 19s. 3d., leaving the sum of £199 6s. 7d. to be found by the Board out of its ordinary capitation grant. Scholarships. —There were 345 candidates (boys, 182 ; girls, 163) for the Junior National Scholarships. Of these, twenty-six qualified (eighteen boys and eight girls). It is worthy of note, and a matter to which the Department's attention should bo drawn, that of those who qualified eight came from the large primary schools and eighteen from district high schools or secondary schools, there being no successful candidate from a sole-charge school. The number of candidates for Senior National Scholarships was 139 (ninety-one boys and forty-eight girls). Of these, fourteen (ten boys and four girls) qualified. Finance. —Taking into consideration the whole of the accounts, the Board's balance-sheet shows that up to the 31st December, 1920, there was a drift of about £2,000 in the finances during the year. The accounts in which the principal losses have occurred are the Buildings Maintenance and New Buildings. The Board has also expended out of its General Account a sum of approximately £600 on sanitary and water services, &c., not recoverable from the Department. In view of the extraordinarily high cost of material and labour, coupled with the fact that grants have not been increased in proportion, the setback was to be expected. The sum of £835 Bs. 10d. was transferred from the General Account to special accounts to wipe out deficits that had accrued during the year. While the financial standing of the Board is beyond question, there is a call for careful scrutiny of all transactions, and economy and judicious operation of the respective funds will be imperatively necessary. Manual and Technical Instruction. —The past year has been one of the most important in the history of the Board as far as the development of manual and technical education is concerned. The work has had a great fillip, principally due to the fact that the Government more than ever is beginning to realize the value of this important branch of education, and legislation has been introduced which allows more liberal treatment in the way of providing capitation grants, increases in salaries, grants for buildings, material, apparatus, &c. A series of epidemics in all parts of the district militated against the attendances, and thus interfered with the continuity of the work. Some form of elementary handwork was taken up at all the Board's schools, with an attendance of 28,500 pupils during the year. At thirty-five schools, having no female teacher on the staff, instruction in needlework was given by special sewing-mistresses. Advanced handwork again received due attention, but it is to be regretted that only a small proportion of the pupils in the district can receive instruction in woodwork and cookery, owing to lack of facilities. Teachers' Glasses. —Teachers' classes have again been conducted at Ghristchurch, Greymouth, and Timaru, and correspondence classes have been carried on for teachers in the remote parts of the

district. To foster the teaching of dairy science a course of instruction was given at Grcymouth and Hokitika towards the end of the year. Agriculture. —As might be expected, in this district there was an increasing interest in agricultural education during the year, and agricultural societies and horticultural societies have done their best to stimulate and strengthen this interest. About four hundred pupils received instruction in the rural courses taken at the district high schools. Technical and continuation classes were carried on wherever there was a demand for them. The Supervisor's report gives detailed information showing steady and solid advance and increased interest in the work. Irregular Attendance. —As noted elsewhere in this report, there was a large decrease in average attendance during the year. This was caused by sickness, which affected the whole district, the attendance in the infant classes being seriously reduced in consequence. Under these anomalous conditions the Board's attendance officers were compelled to exercise great care before taking extreme measures against offending parents. In consequence of the steps taken to enforce the provisions of the Act, a great improvement has taken place in the attendance of pupils at the Ashburton Technical School. It would be well if the respective managers of other technical schools took similar measures to ensure the attendance of young persons between the ages of fourteen and seventeen years. I have, &c, Eknest H. Andrews, Chairman. The Hon. the Minister of Education, Wellington.

OTAGO. Sir,— Dunedin, 31st March, 1921. I have the honour to submit the following report of the Education Board of the District of Otago for the year 1920 :— Board. —No change in the membership of the Board has occurred since the election in 1916. The members now in office are : Urban Area—Messrs. W. R. Brugh, Robert H. S. Todd, James Wallace, and James H. Wilkinson ; North Ward —Messrs. Donald Borrie and George Livingstone ; Central Ward— Messrs. James Horn, M.P., and James Smith ; South Ward —Hon. D. T. Fleming, M.L.C., and Mr. Parker McKinlay, M.A. Mr. James Wallace continues to fill the office of Chairman. Thirty-six meetings of the Board have been held. The following were the Board's representatives on various educational bodies : Council of the University of Otago— Mr. P. McKinlay, M.A. ; Otago High Schools' Board—Hon. D. T. Fleming, M.L.C, and Mr. W. R. Brugh; Waitaki High Schools' Board —Mr. James Mitchell. Boards of Management of Associated (Technical) Classes : Dunedin — Messrs. W. R. Brugh, James Horn, M.P, P. McKinlay, M.A., E. A. Rosevear, R. H. S. Todd, James Wallace, and J. H. Wilkinson; Oamaru —Mr. James Mitchell; Milton Messrs. P. McKinlay, M.A., and W. B. Graham. Number of Schools. —The number of schools in operation at the end of the year was 253, the same number as in , the previous year. Four of these were household schools. Ten had an average below 9; seventy-nine from 9t020 ; fifty-eight from 21 to 35 ; fifty-five from 36 to 80 ; twelve from 81 to 120 ; nine from 121 to 160 ; four from 161 to 200 ; seven from 201 to 360 ; six from 361 to 480; and thirteen over 480. Attendance of Pupils. —The average roll, average attendance, and percentage of average attendance for the year were 21,981, 19,479, and 88-63 respectively. Owing to the prevalence of influenza in a mild form in Dunedin and suburbs and in a few country districts early in the year it was considered expedient to keep all the schools in Otago closed during the month of February. The epidemic gradually spread throughout the district, and it may be said that practically all the schools suffered from it, many country schools having to be closed a second time. Influenza was followed by smallpox, measles, mumps, and diphtheria, and it was not until late in the year that the conditions for regular school attendance could be said to be normal. These interruptions of school-work have, of course, very markedly lowered the figures for school attendance for the year, a decrease of 249 in the roll number, of 984 in the average attendance, and of 3-4 in the percentage of average attendance having to be recorded. The provision made by the Government to obviate undue curtailment of school staffs owing to the decreased averages —viz., that in all schools the attendance at which was affected by the prevailing epidemics the average for any one quarter shall be accepted as the average for the year—is, on the whole, an equitable solution of the difficulty. The following table shows the increase, since the institution of the Otago education scheme in 1856, in the number of schools, teachers and pupils : —

Finance. —The main items of expenditure are shown below in comparison with the figures for the

For the conveyance of children to school, and for the board of children who had to live away from their homes in order to attend school, the Department contributed £3,057 16s. 3d., and the Board (out of its General Fund) £368 135., making a total expenditure of £3,426 9s. 3d. for these purposes, which is an increase of £619 11s. Bd. over the previous year. Conveyance allowance was paid in respect of 525 children, and boarding-allowance for sixty children.

seniors (or 17-4 per cent.) were successful in gaining scholarships. Five of the nineteen Senior Scholarships awarded in this district were gained by pupils of the Board's district high schools. Of the 220 Junior Scholarships awarded in the Dominion, Otago candidates gained 18-6 per cent., and of the 122 Senior Scholarships awarded Otago candidates gained 15-6 per cent. Of the 120 scholarships current in Otago at the end of 1920, eighty-nine were Junior and thirty-one were Senior ; thirty-nine were hold by girls and eighty-one by boys. The reports of the Principals of the secondary schools regarding the conduct, diligence, and progress of the scholarship-holders were in all cases quite satisfactory. Manual and Technical. —Instruction in some branch of elementary handwork (paperwork, cardboard, plasticine-modelling, brushwork, &c.) was imparted in all the schools in the district. Cookery was carried on in thirteen centres, and woodwork in eleven centres ; forty-four schools participating in the cookery instruction, and forty-one in the woodwork instruction. Swimming and life-saving classes for S4 pupils were held at the Dunedin Municipal Baths. Classes for pupils above S3 were held at the Oamaru Municipal Baths, and also at Alexandra, Coal Creek, Duntroon, Naseby, Tapanui, and Waihola. The average attendances at the special classes were : Cookery, 1,301 ; woodwork, 1,341 ; swimming and life-saving, 1,131. Agricultural Instruction. —The school-garden furnishes a field of operations in which the personal interest and activity of the child find ample opportunities for expression. Its value in this relation, and also as a centre in which may be focussed valuable lessons adapted to the needs of the pupils, is being increasingly appreciated, and in many of our schools very effective work has been done. In some cases, however, the problems with which the garden bristles have not been used to the best advantage as a means of vitalizing the work. Further assistance to the efforts in the direction of beautifying the school-grounds was given during the year by the distribution from the Training College students' garden of nearly three thousand trees and shrubs to fifty-three schools. During the year elementary agricultural instruction has been associated with the other subjects of the syllabus in primary schools, while in the district high schools the rural science course has been followed. School of Art. —This institution was established by the Provincial Government in the early " seventies," and has had a very creditable history. For many years past, however, the revenue derived from it has been quite inadequate for its maintenance, and in view of the continued financial loss involved the Board has been reluctantly compelled to discontinue the classes and to undertake only the drawing instruction of its own pupil-teachers, probationers, and training-college students. The Technical College managers having agreed to provide instruction in the other art classes previously carried on at the School of Art, the Board has given them for that purpose the free use of the School of Art class-rooms and equipment until a proper building is provided for the art department of the Technical College. In the event of the latter body ceasing to carry on these classes, the building, apparatus, and equipment are to revert to the Board. The expenditure on manual and technical instruction was —Salaries, material, &c, for school classes, £0,661 17s. Bd., and for special classes, £684 os. sd. ; buildings, furniture, and fittings, £1,387 3s. 10d. : total, £8,733 Is. lid. —being an increase of £1,426 18s, Id. over the previous year. The excess of expenditure over capitation earned and receipts from other sources was £256 lls. id. Public-school Certificates. — There were 1,791 candidates from the public schools for proficiency certificates. Of these 1,437, or 80 per cent., were successful, and 161 gained certificates of competency. The proficiency results are higher by 3 per cent, than those of the previous year. School Libraries. —The Board continues to provide book-cases and allows a subsidy of £1 for £1 up to £2 10s. in any one year on all moneys raised locally by School Committees and expended on the purchase of books suitable for school libraries. A subsidy of 30s. for £1 up to £3 in any one year is also granted for pictures for the class-room walls. A Government subsidy of £1 for £1 on voluntary contributions for these purposes is also available. During the year forty-six ( ommittees participated in these subsidies, the total amount paid by the Board in respect of book-cases, books, and pictures being £101 Bs. sd. Free School-books. —The cost of books supplied by the Board in necessitous cases and in the case of pupils coming from other education districts where different books were used was £76 6s. 6d. The Board recommends that as soon as trade conditions arc favourable the Government should prescribe the use in all schools of the Dominion of one set of books for all subjects of the primaryschools curriculum, purchase or import the required number of copies, and supply them at cost price to pupils, the Education Boards to be the distributing agencies. Training Coltoge. —There were 193 students in the College at the end of 1920, viz. : Second-year students (58 women and 9 men), total 67 ; first-year students (84 women and 29 men), total 113 ; supernumerary teachers, 13 men (returned soldiers). To provide lecture-rooms and offices for an increase of about eighty students in 1921 a third story is now being added to the Training College building. A suitable site for the long-expected Training College hostel has been acquired, and plans for the building have been prepared and submitted to the Department; but, to the regret of the Board, the exigencies of the Government's finance have necessitated the postponement of the erection of the building for an indefinite period. Truancy and Irregular Attendance. —In the course of his duty the attendance officer found it necessary to serve 236 notices on parents and guardians for infringements of the Education Act. Investigations into 387 cases were necessary owing to the unusual amount of illness and for other reasons. Eleven penalty summonse-s were issued under section 62 of the Act, convictions being obtained in all cases. The fines for the year amounted to £7 12s. Of 1,951 pupils who left the primary schools during last year, 1,393, or 71 per cent., had passed S6, and 558, or 29 per cent., had not passed that standard, but had reached the exemption age of fourteen years. Pupils to the number of 166 in classes below S6 in the city and suburban schools terminated their school course in December, 1920. Of this number 107 had passed only S5, forty-one had passed only S4, fourteen had passed only S3, and four had passed only S2. All the pupils in question had reached the exemption age. Buildings. —Another difficult year has been experienced in the matter of erecting and repairing school buildings. While some lines of material are slowly dropping in price, others are still rising, and

it cannot be said that any appreciable reduction in the cost of the work has as yet taken place. An honest effort is being made to overtake all work authorized, but progress is slow, although the labour difficulty seems now less acute. Increasing attendance at St. Clair School had to be met by the erection of two additional class-rooms, and at Forbury School two extra rooms were provided by extending and subdividing two rooms. The four rooms affected by this alteration have been remodelled, and their lighting, ventilation, and seating improved. A new school was erected at Merino Downs to replace one destroyed by fire. Two infant-rooms at Oamaru South School were enlarged, and shelter-sheds taken down and re-erected. A new brick residence has been erected for the teacher at Clyde, and a small cottage for the teacher at Otanomomo. A two-roomed cottage was purchased and removed to Tapui to provide housing for the teacher. Two unused rooms at the Blue Spur School were taken down, and the material is being used in carrying our work at other schools. Buildings for manual training are in course of erection at Alexandra and at Arthur Street, Dunedin. At the Training College a fairly extensive alteration had to be made to provide a retiring-room and study for the male students, and a much larger work, consisting of an additional story upon the Training College building, was started in November, this extra accommodation being rendered necessary by the great increase in the number of students now admitted to the College. Improvements in the way of better conveniences, extra shelter-sheds, asphalting grounds, erecting concrete tanks and drinking-fountains, fencing and draining, have been carried out at many schools, and several residences have been improved by small alterations in the way of providing additional comforts and labour-saving appliances. The Board has also given greater attention to the matter of improving the lighting and ventilation of class-rooms, and efforts in this direction have been much appreciated by teachers and scholars. Buildings Maintenance. Although the departmental grants for this purpose have been considerably increased during the past few years, the cost of labour and materials has mounted to such an extent that the funds at the disposal of the Board are found to be quite inadequate. The Board is compelled to urge that the grants be still further augmented in order that it may be able to maintain in a reasonably satisfactory condition the buildings under its control. Home-science Students. —At the request of the University Council, students completing their degree or diploma course in home science at the University of Otago have been allowed to attend the North Dunedin manual-training centre for practice in cookery-teaching. Organizing Teachers. —There are now three of these teachers working in this district —in the Lower Clutha, Central, and Catlin's districts respectively. Each supervises from, twelve to fifteen schools. The work involved is always strenuous and often depressing, but its benefit to the untrained and inexperienced teachers of the schools visited cannot be overestimated. Increase in Teachers' Salaries. —For many years past the Board has emphasized the necessity for higher emolument for the teachers in the public schools, and it now desires to express its appreciation <5f the substantial increases in salaries which the Minister has been able to provide for all grades. It believes that the new rates are, for the most part, adequate, and should attract to the teaching profession the best material available in the Dominion. At the 31st December last eighty-nine teachers were receiving salaries of £180 per annum or under ; 241 from £181 to £250 ; eighty-six from £251 to £300; eighty from £301 to £350 ; fifty-nine from £351 to £400 ; twenty-seven from £401 to £450 ; and twenty-nine over £450. Superannuation. —The Board reaffirms its opinion that as a matter of simple justice to teachers training-college service should, for all teachers, be counted as service for pension purposes, and that if this is not permissible as the law at present stands, the necessary legislation to provide for it should be introduced at the earliest opportunity. Special classes for pupil-teachers, probationers, and uncertificated teachers were conducted in Dunedin in the subjects of drawing, hygiene, vocal music, ambulance and first aid, and practical agriculture. Ambulance and first-aid classes were also held at Alexandra and Kaitangata. Half fees were paid for correspondence classes taken by fifteen uncertificated teachers whose work was favourably reported on. I have, &c, The Hon. the Minister of Education, Wellington. J. Wallace, Chairman.

SOUTHLAND. Sic, — Invercargill, 31st March, 1921. In accordance with the requirements of the Education Act, the Education Board of the District of Southland has the honour to submit the following report of its proceedings for the year 1920 :- The Board. —The members in office at the beginning of the year were Messrs. J. C. Thomson (Chairman), D. Gilchrist, F. W. Gresham, J. Mac Gibbon, G. F. Johnson, A. H. Nichol, P. A. de la Perrelle, and J. D. Trotter. The members retiring by rotation in the month of July were Messrs. D. Gilchrist, J. Mac Gibbon, J. C. Thomson, and J. i). Trotter. At the election held in the same month Messrs. J. C. Thomson, West Ward (unopposed), J. D. Trotter, Central Ward (unopposed), H. E. Niven, East Ward, and F. W. Preddy, Invorcargill Urban Area, were returned. An election of a member for the Invercargill Urban Area and the East Ward was held in November to fill the extraordinary vacancies on the Board caused by the resignations of Messrs. F. W. Gresham and A. J. Nichol respectively, the voting resulting in the election of Mr. F. G. Blake (unopposed) for Invercargill Urban Area, and Mr. H. Smith for East Ward. The Board's representation on other educational bodies was as follows : Southland Boys' and Girls' High Schools Board -Messrs. J. C. Thomson and P. A. de la Perrelle ; Gore High School Board— Messrs. J. D.. Trotter, H. Smith,'and H. E. Niven; Southland Technical College Board—Messrs. H. E. Niven, J. C. Thomson, H. D. Trotter, W. Riddell, F. A. Webb, and A. L. Wyllie, M.A. ; Otago University Council —Mr. J. C. Thomson ; Dunedin Training College Committee of Advice— Mr. J. C. Thomson. During the year the Board held thirteen meetings (twelve ordinary and one special), and the Executive Committee, which consists of all the members of the Board, met twenty-

two times. At the meeting of the Board held on the 27th August Mr. P. A. de la Perrelle was unanimously elected Chairman for the ensuing two years. Schools. —At the close of the preceding year the schools in this education district numbered 190. During the year to which this report refers the small schools at Wairekiki, Kaiwera, Key of the Lakes, and Nine Mile were closed on account of the reduced attendance, while a new school was opened at Maori Beach, thus leaving the number in operation at the end of the year as 186. These were classified as follows : Grade 0, 9 schools ; Grade I, 47 ; Grade 11, 50 ; Grade lIIa, 57 ; Grade lIIb, 4 ; Grade IVα, 3 ; Grade IVβ, 4 ; Grade IVc, 4 ; Grade Vβ, 3 ; Grade Vlb, 2 ; Grade VIIa, 1 ; Grade VIId, 2. Demonstration Schools. —For years past the Board has urged the Department to establish at least one demonstration school in this district, and it is gratifying to report that the repeated appeals are likely to bear fruit. The Board has, at the request of the Department, recommended two schools in this district as demonstration schools. School Attendance. —As might be expected, the attendance of pupils at the schools in this district suffered, in common with other parts of the Dominion, owing to the prevalence of epidemics. The Board is pleased to note that the Department has recognized that the attendance has been largely spoiled by the sickness that was prevalent throughout the year, and has agreed to grade the schools on the average of the quarter which is the highest of the four quarters of 1920. The following table shows the number of schools, the number of children on the rolls, the number in average attendance, and the percentage of attendance for each ten-yearly period since 1890 : —

In terms of the Board's regulations, teachers are requested to furnish monthly returns of attendance. These returns are carefully examined by the Truant Officer, with the result that a fairly efficient check on truancy has been maintained. The Truant Officer in his annual report to the Board states that he sent out during the year 383 warning notices to defaulters, issued forty-two summonses, and secured thirty-seven convictions, the amount of fines inflicted being £9 3s. School Staffs. —At the close of the year there were in the service of the Board 440 teachers, classed as follows :—

Of the 346 adult primary-school teachers in the service of the Board, 229 held certificates, ten held licenses to teach, while 107 were uncertificated. It is to be noted that included in the 107 teachers who arc uncertificated are those who have passed the D or C examination but are unable to obtain their certificates until such time as they have complied with the conditions regarding age, length of service, &c. The Board regrets that it is still necessary to employ a large number of uncertificated and inexperienced teachers. In some cases the uncertificated teachers are in receipt of fairly good salaries, and it becomes a question for serious consideration whether the Board will not in the immediate future arrange for an exchange in positions as between the uncertificated and certificated teachers. Teaching of Sewing.- Although provision is made for the appointment of sewing-mistresses for schools in charge of a male teacher whose average attendance is under thirty-six, only thirteen schools in this district have taken advantage of the provision made by the Department for instruction in this important subject. Organizing Teachers. —In October, 1919, two organizing teachers were appointed for this district. The small schools placed under the supervision of the organizing teachers are staffed by uncertificatod and, in most cases, inexperienced teachers. Although the scheme has only been in operation in this district for fifteen months, evidence is not wanting that much benefit has been derived by the teachers through the assistance given by the organizing teachers. Training of Teachers. —Saturday classes for the training of uncertificated teachers were conducted in Invercargill for two terms each of thirteen weeks. Following are the subjects in which

instruction was given, and the roll-numbers of the students in attendance : Drawing (three classes), 72; advanced needlework (two classes), 47 ; agriculture, 15; vocal music, 25 ; cardboard-work, 20 ; English, 11 ; elementary hygiene (two classes), 52 ; physical drill (three classes), 69. For the benefit of pupil-teachers and probationers attending the Invercargill town and suburban schools a class in drawing was held on two afternoons a week for a period of thirty-eight weeks, the number of students attending being twenty-five. At the close of the school year a special class for practical work in agriculture was held for a week at a local nursery for the sake of those teachers who wished to complete the time necessary to secure a certificate for practical work to enable them to qualify for the D examination in agriculture. This class was attended by ten students, who all showed the keenest interest in the work they were called upon to do. Where teachers are so situated that attendance at Saturday classes is impossible, assistance may be obtained towards meeting the cost of receiving instruction through correspondence classes, and in this connection a sum of £21 9s. sd. was refunded to teachers who took advantage of the assistance thus provided. Junior and Senior National Scholarships. —For the junior competition there were eighty-nine candidates, and for the senior thirty-seven candidates. In the junior division scholarships were awarded to seventeen candidates, and in the senior division to three candidates. Although head teachers were requested to make a selection from their pupils and present only those who had good prospects of qualifying, the results in the junior competition point clearly to the fact that a fair proportion of the candidates did not have a reasonable chance of passing the examination. The total number of scholarships in force at the end of the year were —Junior National, thirty-nine ; Senior National, four. The amount disbursed to scholarship-holders during the year was £839 15s. Conveyance and Board of Pupils. —The Board has on several occasions urged the Department to increase the allowance to children who are compelled to use a conveyance owing to the distance of their home from a school. The Board also urged that the allowance should be extended to children who ride to school on horseback. As stated in last year's report, the Board is strongly of the opinion that a substantial increase in the allowance for conveyance as well as boarding would prevent the undue multiplication of small schools. The amount disbursed by the Board on the conveyance and board of children was £1,946, as compared with £2,016 17s. 4d. in 1919. Conveyance allowance was paid in respect of 392 children, and boarding-allowance in respect of thirty-two children. Voluntary Contributions. —The total amount raised this year by School Committees by voluntary contributions was £621, showing a decrease of £126 as compared with the amount raised in 1919. The Board respectfully urges the Department to include such games as football and cricket in its interpretation of the regulations regarding organized games on which subsidy is obtainable for apparatus and equipment. Board's Library. —The Board's library for teachers contains approximately four hundred volumes. In view of the fact that the library is open at all times to the teachers, and that no fee is charged for the use of the books, it is surprising that so few of our teachers make use of the books. School Books and Stationery. —Once again the Board expresses the opinion that the purchase of all school material .should be made by the Department in bulk from, the manufacturers and sold at cost price to Education Boards. The Department has been advised that the Board is prepared to undertake the distribution of the material to the schools in this district. School Certificates. —897 pupils were presented for examination in the subjects of the Sixth Standard. Of these, 656 gained proficiency certificates, 138 gained competency, two gained endorsed competency, while 101 failed. Medical Inspection. —When the scheme for the medical inspection of school-children by the School Medical Officer was first put into operation many parents protested against the examination of their children. The Board is pleased to report that evidence is not wanting that the opposition to medical examination no longer exists. The Board trusts that during the coming year there will be a considerable extension of this branch of school-work. It is hoped that the Medical Officer and the School Nurse will be able to visit the pupils in the remote parts of the district. School Dentists.- Three months of 1921 have passed and no appointment of a School Dentist for this district has yet been made. The Chief School Medical Officer in his annual report states, " All Medical Officers concur in emphasizing the urgent need for a scheme of dental treatment." If the need for dental treatment is urgent, why the delay on the part of the Department in appointing a dental officer for this district ? Financial obligations should, not be allowed to stand in the way. The children are the State's best asset. It is only when Medical Inspectors, School Dentists, and physical instructors work hand-in-hand that the most beneficial results will accrue. Physical Instruction. —Your Inspectors report that physical education has been carried on in a satisfactory manner throughout this district, and the schools have, as a whole, taken a keen interest in this branch of school-work. The physical instructor has during the year visited all the principal schools, as well as several of the smaller schools in the remote parts of the district. School Committees. —The Board has again to express its appreciation of the keen interest evinced by the majority of the School Committees in educational matters in this district. During the year the incidental allowances paid to Committees have totalled £6,005 6s. 6d. Buildings. —During the past year the Board has continued its policy of carrying out building operations with its own staff of workmen. The following works were completed during, or were in progress at the end of, the year, viz. : Additions to the school buildings at Hillend South, Bluff, East Gore, Wyndham, Waikiwi, Gore, Lumsden, Tokonui, Waimahaka, Lower Hedgehope, and Mossburn ; additions to the teacher's residence, Waimahaka ; a new residence for the teacher at Tuatapere ; and the erection of new schools at Glenham, Pukemaori, Brown's, and Dunearn. In addition to the foregoing works, ordinary repairs to school buildings and teachers' residences have been carried out under the supervision of the Board's architects. During the year the school building at Gore was destroyed by fire. Finance. —The receipts from all sources, including a credit balance brought forward from 1919, amounted to £143,012 18s. 4d., and the year closed with a credit balance at the bank of £876 Is. 9d. I have, &c, P. A. de la Pehrelle, Chairman. The Hon. the Minister of Education, Wellington.
