SECONDARY EDUCATION. 1. EXTRACT FROM THE FORTY-FIFTH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE MINISTER OF EDUCATION. Number of Schools. (Table Kl.) Schools affording education of a secondary nature are established in every centre of any importance in the Dominion, and are at present of the following types : Secondary schools, technical high schools, district high schools, private secondary schools, and Maori secondary schools. The majority of the district high schools are in the country centres, the secondary schools and technical high schools being in the larger towns and cities. There were thirty-five secondary schools in operation, including thirteen separate schools for boys, thirteen for girls, and nine for boys and girls. Two of the boys' schools, although endowed with public property, do not come directly under the control of the Government. The remaining secondary schools are managed by separate Boards in accordance with special Acts constituting them, and the provisions of the Education Act and regulations hereunder. There were fifty-seven secondary departments of district high schools, thirteen technical high schools, ten Maori secondary schools, and twenty registered private secondary schools, making a total of 135 schools providing secondary education. Four district high schools were disestablished during the year and technical high schools established in their place. Number of Pupils receiving Secondary Education. The total number of pupils attending the thirty-five secondary schools mentioned above at the end of 1920 and 1921 respectively was : — , 192), —, , 1921. , Boys. Girls. Total. Boys. Girls. Totals. Roll (exclusive of lower departments) .. 5,246 3,950 9,196 5,583 4,447 10,030 The roll number shows an increase of 834 over the figure for the previous year, more than half the increase being in the number of first-year pupils. In the last five years the number of pupils has increased by 42 per cent. The roll number on the Ist March, which is regarded as the highest roll number during the year, was 10,765, compared with 10,080 in the previous year.

Of the 11,383 children who left the primary schools in 1920 having passed S6, 3,972 entered secondary schools in 1921, 1,626 the secondary departments of district high schools, and 1,634 technical high schools, hence a total of 7,232, or 64 per cent., of the children mentioned entered upon a course of secondary education. The number represents 45 per cent, of the total number of pupils leaving the primary schools in 1920, of whom more than one-quarter had not passed S6. In addition to the pupils mentioned as having proceeded to a secondary course of education, 2,116 entered technical schools or classes, of which number 1,475 had passed S6 and 641 had not. Length of Stay and Age of Pupils. The average length of stay of pupils at secondary schools has varied very little during recent years, boys remaining on the average two years and ten months and girls two years and eight months. The following figures show the percentage of pupils leaving the secondary schools at the stages indicated : — Roys. Girls. (a.) Percentage leaving at end of first year or during second year . . 19 17 (b.) Percentage leaving at end of second year or during third year 33 37 (<;.) Percentage leaving at end of third year or during fourth year . . 14 19 (d.) Percentage leaving at end. of fourth year or during fifth year .. 23 17 (c.) Percentage leaving at end of fifth year or during sixth year .. 8 8 (/.) Percentage remaining at end of sixth year .. .. .. 3 2 It is gratifying to find that the percentage of pupils leaving at the end of the first year shows a considerable fall, for the opinion is general that one year's tuition in secondary schools as they are at present constituted can be of very little real value to the pupil. In the case of district high schools the proportion ieaving at a correspondingly early stage is greater, but as the course of work is more in the nature of an extension of the primary course the wastage is not so serious. More than half of the pupils leave the secondary schools at the end of two years, and as

E.—6

4

the average age of the pupils at that stage is fifteen years ten months little else can be expected. The question that is receiving serious consideration is whether the present arrangement of the primary and secondary systems of education provide the best educational equipment for the large number of children leaving school finally at the age of fifteen or sixteen years. The conclusions arrived at are set out in the following paragraph. Post-primary Education. A conference of educationists held in April of the current year, after fully considering the matter, passed certain resolutions which it is proposed to carry into effect as opportunity offers. The principal proposal is that the primary course should end when the average child has completed his twelfth year. (The present average age of children at the end of the year in S6 is fourteen years.) The child should then enter upon his post-primary course at a junior high school, three-fifths of which course will be common to all the pupils and include such subjects as English, arithmetic, geography, history and civics, general science, and drawing and practical geometry, the remaining two-fifths having an academic, commercial, industrial (including domestic), agricultural, or art bias, according to the special aptitude of the individual. Pending the elaboration and adoption of a complete scheme, the proposal is to experiment in three types of such post-primary schools : — (a.) A junior high school in one of the four chief centres. (6.) Another in a town in which all the post-primary pupils could be taken for a three-years course in a junior high school, (c.) Another in a country district in which the post-primary pupils of a number of small schools could be provided for in a district high school with a jiinior-high-school course. At the conclusion of the junior-high-school course pupils desiring to proceed further will, of course, enter a senior high school or technical high school. The chief point of the proposed change is that the school course will be divided into 6-3-3 year periods, instead of 8-2 or 8-4 year periods as at present, and pupils leaving after nine years' schooling will have received a much more useful, wellbalanced, and complete course than is possible under the present arrangement. Curriculum of Secondary Schools and District High Schools. Although there are at present no departmental regulations directly governing the curriculum of secondary schools, the regulations defining the subjects of instruction to lie taught to free-place holders and the prescribed syllabuses of the various public examinations to a large extent control the character of the courses of work undertaken. Instruction must be provided for junior-free-place holders in English, history and civics, arithmetic, mathematics, a branch of science, and in two additional subjects which may be one or two foreign languages, science subjects, or some such subject as commercial work, woodwork, drawing, &c. The study of home science is compulsory for every girl holding a junior free place. The Department's Inspectors of Secondary Schools visit all secondary schools, inspecting the work, conferring with the teachers on teaching matters, and discussing with the Principals details of organization and method. Written and oral tests are also given to second-year pupils in English, arithmetic, and usually in other subjects up to the standard of the Intermediate Examination, and Principals' recommendations for the award of senior free places and of the various leavingcertificates are dealt with. General improvement in the quality of the teaching is reported, teachers, on the whole, displaying a growing interest in educational reform and in modern methods of instruction. In the main the courses provided at secondary schools are of an academic character, but the necessity of providing for pupils not intending to take up a scholastic or professional career is being increasingly realized. Short courses are now provided in most schools, suitable for pupils remaining only one or two years, from which the study of foreign languages and mathematics is generally excluded ; commercial courses are also followed by a large number of pupils, and instruction in such subjects as agriculture, needlework, and cookery is fairly general. Of the

5

E.—6

total number of pupils only 55 per cent, of the boys and 33 per cent, of the girls now take Latin, while 90 per cent, of the boys and 93 per cent, of the girls take French ; about 1,500 boys and 1,000 girls take commercial subjects, 750 boys take agriculture, and only 688 girls now study botany, its place having been taken by home science. The course provided in the secondary departments of district high schools is intended to be of a less academic nature than that of the secondary schools, and to have a bearing more or less upon rural pursuits. The result is that 65 per cent, of the boys and 22 per cent, of the girls study agricultural science, and 28 per cent, of the boys and 18 per cent, of the girls learn dairy-work. Subjects connected with home life are also largely taken by the girls. Only 29 per cent, of the pupils learn Latin. A number of the pupils, however, in these schools prefer to follow the usual scholastic course, with the result that the teachers in small schools have a difficult task in teaching a wide range of subjects to a limited number of pupils. The present proposals for reorganizing the post-primary system will eliminate this special difficulty of the district high school as it is now constituted. Destination of Pupils leaving the Secondary Schools. In close connection with the suitability of the courses provided at secondary schools is the destination of the pupils after leaving. From returns received concerning 2,200 pupils who left the ordinary secondary schools at the end of the year 1921 it appears that 7 per cent, continued their education at the University, 13 per cent, went to other schools or classes for commercial or other training, and 16 per cent, entered the teaching service. Thirty-six per cent, of the girls took up duties at home, and 24 per cent, of the boys proceeded to fanning occupations. The principal avocations followed by the remainder were : clerical work in commercial houses, &c, 12 per cent. ; Government services, 2-5 per cent. ; shops, 4 per cent. ; engineering and similar trades, 2 per cent. ; other trades, 2 per cent. ; and professions such as architects, surveyors, &c, 3 per cent. Hostels for Pupils of Secondary Schools. (Table K(i.) The policy of accommodating country pupils in hostels attached to the secondary schools is favoured by the Department, and, as far as possible, financial assistance is being given for the erection of hostels. Unfortunately, the enforced restriction of all building operations has led to the postponement of the erection of a few urgently needed hostels. The majority of schools now have hostels connected with them, the buildings as a rule being the property of the Boards, but in. a few cases being rented. In nearly every instance the hostels are now controlled by the Board of Governors, and in many cases they are a source of revenue. There were 1,223 boys and 407 girls of the secondary departments and 264 lower department pupils accommodated in school hostels in. 1921. Of the boys, 370 were at Christ's College, Christchurch, and the Wanganui Collegiate School. In addition to these numbers, 98 pupils were boarding at establishments approved by the Principals, and 562 were boarding privately. For these last-named, and also for the large number of children prevented from attending school owing to the boarding difficulty, or forced to make long railway journeys daily, additional accommodation where there is dependable supervision and desirable environment is still needed. Free Secondary LiDUcation. (Table K4.) Free secondary education is provided on an extensive scale, junior and senior free places being tenable at secondary schools, district high schools, technical high schools, and other technical schools. Generally speaking, junior free places are tenable for two. years, with a possible extension in certain cases to three years. In the case of their being held, at district high schools they are tenable to the age of seventeen. The means of qualification are— (1.) For entrance to secondary schools and district high schools — (a) Special examinations for Junior National Scholarships, (b) the certificate of proficiency.

E.—6

(2.) For entrance to technical high schools the means of qualification named in (1), or the certificate of competency in S6, with a special endorsement of merit in handwork or in elementary science, which for the purposes of technical schools is deemed to-be equivalent to a certificate of proficiency. (3.) For entrance to technical classes other than technical high, schools the means of qualification named in (1) or (2), or, under special conditions applicable to industrial courses only, a recommendation by the Inspector of Schools if a pupil is over fourteen years. Senior free places are tenable at secondary schools, district high schools, and technical high schools up to the age of nineteen, and at technical classes other than technical high schools for three or in some cases four years. The means of qualification for senior free places are the Intermediate or other equivalent examinations, or the recommendation of the Principal or Director of the school or classes attended based on. the school records and examination results, or the recommendation of an Inspector of Secondary Schools, or, in the case of district high schools, of the senior Inspector of the district, or in part on such a recommendation and in part on the results of a special examination. Recommendation is the qualification now frequently offered, the number receiving senior free places in this manner in 1921 being 2,170, representing nearly three-fifths of the total number of senior free places gained. As a result of the free-place system 1.3,821 children were receiving free secondary education in 1921- -8,540 in secondary schools, 2,029 in district high schools, 3,140 in technical high schools, and 112 in Maori secondary schools. The number represents 91 per cent, of the pupils of all Government schools affording secondary education.

(Tables K4 and K5.) National Scholarships. Junior and Senior National Scholarships are awarded by the Government on the results of annual examinations, the junior examination being of a standard somewhat higher than that of the certificate of proficiency, and the candidates being not over fourteen years of age ; and. the senior examination being of a standard comparable with the standard of the Public Service Entrance Inanimation, the candidates being not over sixteen years of age. Scholarships are awarded to all candidates reaching a certain standard, the standard of award being determined so as approximately to provide one scholarship (junior or senior) for every 500

7

E.—6

children in attendance at all public schools ; the Junior and Senior Scholarships awarded are in the proportion of nine to five, so that there is one Junior Scholarship among approximately every 750 pupils in. attendance at the schools, or among every fifty-five S6 pupils. In the case of pupils from sole-teacher schools — i.e., schools with an average attendance of under thirty-six —the standard of award is made 10 per cent, lower than the general standard. The standard of qualification fixed for the 1921 examinations was 64| per cent, for Junior Scholarships (general standard) and 63 per cent, for Senior Scholarships. The results of the examination were as follows : 216 candidates qualified for Junior National Scholarships, of which number ten were pupils of sole-teacher schools, and fifty-one were pupils of secondary schools. The number of successful pupils from sole-teacher schools was greater than in the previous year, and the number from secondary schools smaller. The number of candidates qualifying for Senior National Scholarships was 124, of which number only two qualified on the alternative programme provided specially to suit the needs of those taking a rural or domestic course. Junior and Senior National Scholarships are tenable at secondary schools and district high schools, each for three years, provided that the total tenure of the two scholarships in the case of one person must not exceed five years. The holder receives £5 per annum if a junior scholar, or £10 per annum if a senior scholar, with a further sum of £35 per annum, in each case if obliged to live away from home. The figures below indicate the number and the value of scholarships current in December, 1921. The number of scholarship-holders is, of course, included in the number of free-place holders shown in the preceding section. Number of scholarship-holders— 1921.

Private scholarships are derived from funds provided at certain schools by private donors, by bequest or otherwise. The number of foundation and private scholarships in the last term of 1921 was 188. Of the holders 114 were also Government free pupils under the regulations. War Bursaries for Soldiers' Dependants. Regulations provide for the award of bursaries to dependants of killed or disabled members of the New Zealand .Expeditionary Force. To qualify for a war bursary a child must be eligible for— (a.) Free education at technical classes ; or (b.) A free place at a secondary school, district high school, or technical high school; or (c.) A University or educational bursary at a University college. A bursary entitles the holder to an allowance, in addition to free tuition, of £l 10s. or £3 per annum in the case of those qualified under (a), £5 for those under (6), or £10 for those under (c). Lodging-allowance is also paid, to bursars who are obliged to live away from home to attend school, at the rate of £15 per annum under (a) and £30 under (6) and (c) ; travelling-allowances varying from £5 to £10 per annum are also made when travelling is necessary. During 1921 the number of bursaries held at secondary schools was thirty, the expenditure thereon being £565.

Secondary-school Certificates. Three classes of certificates may be issued to free-place holders taking a secondary course of instruction. The intermediate certificate may be granted to junior-free-place holders who have satisfactorily completed under certain conditions a two-year course at a secondary school, district high school, or technical high school, and who in general are qualified in attainment to receive a senior free place. The lower leaving-certificate may be issued to pupils who have satisfactorily completed a three-years course of secondary instruction, including not less than one year of a senior course in which the standard of work is sufficiently advanced in character to meet the requirements of the examination for a teacher's certificate of Class D, or of the Matriculation Examination. Likewise the higher leavingcertificate may be granted to pupils having satisfactorily completed at least a fouryears course of secondary instruction and having satisfied the requirements of the lower leaving-certificate, and, in addition, having completed to good advantage and under certain conditions a further secondary course of not less than one year. The following are the numbers of certificates awarded in 1912 (the year of their institution), in 1920, and in 1921 :— 1912. 1920. 1921. Higher lcaving-certificates awarded .. .. 64 307 305 Lower leaving-certificates awarded .. .. 32 270 255 Applications for certificates declined .. .. 20 93 80 Total number of applications .. .. 116 670 64.0 Staffs of Secondary Schools. (Tablo K3.) The number of full-time teachers on the staffs of secondary schools at the end of 1921 was 405, as compared with 400 in the previous year. This number includes 20 male and 13 female principals and 191 male and 181 female assistants. In addition a number of part-time teachers were employed. The staffing of schools now being controlled by regulation, the average number of pupils to each assistant teacher in the various schools is fairly uniform, and, taking the highest roll during the year of all schools, works out at twenty-seven pupils per assistant teacher. The second annual classified list of assistant teachers was issued at the end of the year, and of the twenty-one appeals against classification four were allowed. That so little exception was taken to the work of the classifying officers is a tribute to the manner in which the many difficulties connected with the new scheme were overcome. Of the total number of assistants, 18 per cent, are classified in the highest grade (Grade A), 23 per cent, in Grade B, 28 per cent, in Grade C, and 31 per cent, in the lowest grade (Grade D). Some of the smaller schools have been unable to obtain teachers possessing the required classification to fill the vacant positions on their staffs, the difficulty being due partly to the fact that the number of tea,chers classified in the higher grades is comparatively small, and partly to the disinclination of teachers for various reasons to move to the smaller centres. On the other hand, the complaint is made by women teachers, especially, that some of their number are holding positions of a lower grade than they are qualified to fill, to which the answer is that the service is hard to find in which a higher position is immediately available for every member as his qualifications improve, and also that the present proposals for a reorganized system of secondary education, will provide a much wider scope for the activities of secondary teachers. Provision for the training of secondary-school teachers is still inadequate, and although a certain number of young teachers now take a training-college course, it is frequently necessary to appoint to the junior classes teachers with high academic status but no training in methods of teaching. The effect on the pupils of these classes who have just left the hands of highly trained teachers in the primary schools cannot be other than unsatisfactory. In some of the larger schools the heads of departments now devote special attention to directing the work of the junior teachers, arranging schemes of work for them, and suggesting generally methods of teaching. The position will not, however, be entirely satisfactory until it is possible to ensure that every secondary-school teacher receives an adequate training in the art of teaching. Reforms in this direction have been under consideration for some time and will be given effect to when financial conditions permit.

The head teacher of a district high school controls the secondary department and takes some part in the instruction, receiving on that account an addition to his ordinary salary of from £30 to £50 according to the number of pupils in the secondary department. Special assistants are also employed for the secondary departments ; in 1921 there were 103 such assistants —33 men and 70 women. Salaries of Secondary-school Teachers. The Dominion scale of salaries of secondary-school teachers which came into force in the year 1920, briefly, is as follows: Principals—Men, £600 to £900; women, £440 to £680. Assistants—Men, £200 to £540 ; women, £175 to £410. In addition, a married Principal receives house allowance of £60 if a residence is not provided, a head of a department may receive £30, and a married assistant receives £40 per annum. The salaries of Principals are graded according to the size of the school, and the salaries of assistants according to the classification of the position held. The total rate of salaries, including those of part-time teachers, as payable in December, 1921, was £152,135, or £14 18s. per head of the highest roll number. The following figures indicate the average rates of salary prevailing at threeyearly intervals since the year 1915 : — Average Salaries ok Full-time Teachers in Secondary Schools. , -1915. -, r 1918. , , 1921 , M.

Of 191 male assistants the salaries of twenty-eight were over £500, of forty-seven between £400 and £500, of sixty-seven between £300 and £400, and of forty-nine below £300. Of 181 female assistants the salaries of twenty-one were over £350, of forty-two between £300 and £350, of sixty-two between £250 and £300, and of fifty-six under £250. In considering these figures it should be borne in mind that nearly one-third of the teachers are classified in the lowest grade, and that many have no teaching experience whatever. In other countries the salary scales of which are sometimes compared with the New Zealand scale teachers cither do not enter the service until they have received a training or else they serve for a term of years as junior teachers before the salary scale applies to them. In the secondary departments of district high schools salaries are paid in accordance with a general scale. The average salaries paid to secondary assistants in 1921 were as follows: Male assistants, £345 ; female assistants, £307 ; all assistants, £319. The total annual rate of salaries paid to teachers of district high schools, including the special payments to head teachers, was £35,566, which is equivalent to £13 10s. per head of the average weekly roll number. Lowur Departments of Secondary Schools. (Tabic Kll.) Lower departments for pupils who have not passed S6 may be held in connection with secondary schools, provided that no part of the cost of instruction or of the maintenance of the department is met out of income from the endowments of the school or from Government grants. Fourteen secondary schools (including Christ's College, Christchurch) have lower departments attached, to them, the total number of pupils in 1921 being 774, as compared with 815 in 1920. The roll number included 433 boys and 341 girls, and the total number of teachers was twenty-nine (seven males and twenty-two females). A large number of the pupils board at the school hostels, indicating that these departments are used by the children of country residents able to afford to send their children away from home to attend school. The tuition fees charged range in the various schools from £9 9s. to £13 10s. per annum, the boarding-fees ranging from £48 to £60 per annum.

Finance. (Tables K7-K9.) The income of secondary schools is derived from the following sources : — (i.) Rents from special reserves allocated to them by statute : (ii.) Statutory grant given in lieu of special reserves (in one case) : (iii.) Interest upon moneys derived from the sale of reserves and invested in accordance with the Education Reserves Act: (iv.) Income from the secondary-school reserves controlled by the Land Boards divided among the secondary schools in the several land districts in proportion to the number of pupils in average attendance, lower departments excluded : (v.) Government payments—(a) For teachers' salaries and incidental expenses ; (b) subsidies on voluntary contributions ; (c) capitation for manual-instruction classes: (vi.) Special Government grants for buildings and apparatus : (vii.) Tuition fees of pupils: (viii.) Boarding-fees of pupils : (ix.) Miscellaneous sources, such as interest on moneys (other than those obtained by the sale of reserves), donations, and income from special endowments (for scholarships, prizes, &c), rent of premises, &c. The revenue derived from sources (i) to (iv) is the income from endowments, the " net annual income derived from endowments" being this sum less the expenditure incurred in connection with the endowments and school property and upon building purposes approved by the Minister. The " net annual income " and receipts from tuition fees are deducted from the amount payable to the High School Board by the Department for salaries.

The latter increase was balanced by a corresponding increase in the receipts. The cost of maintenance, including salaries and incidental expenses, was practically the same as in the previous year. The Department's allowance of £2-5 per head for incidental expenses should have been sufficient to cover the total expenditure under this heading, but in some schools the expenditure was greater than the allowance. The cost ranged from £l'B6 to £3*3 per head, with the outstanding exception in which the cost was £5 - 05. The average cost per head for all schools was £2-54.

The net annual income from endowments, as defined above, amounted to £13,000, which sum was deducted from the Department's payments to the Boards for salaries. Hostels for school boarders were conducted by fourteen Boards, five of which ran the hostels at considerable profit; five others made a loss on the year's working, the remaining four making the revenue and expenditure approximately balance. The expenditure of over £130,000 on new buildings represents the cost of large building operations in connection with schools and hostels at several of the centres. The Government's contribution towards this expenditure by way of direct grants was nearly £93,000 ; the balance being met by income from endowments or by loans raised on the security of these endowments. Several Boards have raised loans in this way which will be gradually paid off from endowment income. The total debit balance of all Boards at the end of the year amounted to approximately £80,000.

2. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE INSPECTORS OF SECONDARY SCHOOLS. Sir,— Wellington, Ist June, 1922. Work of the Year. All secondary schools of the North Island, exclusive of the two Wellington Colleges, were inspected during the first and second terms, for periods ranging from three to six days in each school. Detailed reports upon organization and methods of teaching were forwarded to the respective Boards and Principals, and during our visits these matters were discussed with Principals and staffs individually or by means of conferences. During the latter half of the year Wellington College was inspected, and all secondary schools in both Islands were visited in connection with Principals', recommendations for the award of senior free places and of the various leavingoertificates. Written and oral tests were given to second-year forms in English, arithmetic, and usually in other subjects up to the standard of the Intermediate Examination. 1,820 senior free places were awarded in accordance, with clause 7 (c), and higher and lower leaving-certificates issued to pupils who had fulfilled the required conditions. Registered private secondary schools were also inspected, some for purposes of report on the working of the schools, and in all cases in connection with the granting of higher leaving-certificates. Individual teachers were observed at work during all visits, and Principals consulted with reference to their efficiency. These observations and reports were used as a basis for revising the classification list in December. A period of nearly three weeks was spent in attendance- at the sittings of the Appeal Board appointed for the hearing of appeals of teachers against their classification. The Board was composed of a Chairman appointed by the Minister, a representative of the Department who was not a grading officer, and a representative elected by the secondary-school teachers of the University

E. - 6

district in which the Board sat. Sittings were held in Christchurch, Wellington, and Auckland, no session being required in Dunedin. Only twenty-one appeals against classification were proceeded with by appellants—six in Auckland, nine in Christchurch, and six in Wellington ; of these, one. appeal was not opposed by the grading officers, and three others were allowed by the Board, the remaining seventeen being unsuccessful. Considering the very many difficulties that presented themselves to those responsible for tin; substitution of an entirely new and clearly defined system of classification and staffing for the haphazard methods that had hitherto prevailed, it was very gratifying to find that the percentage of appellant teachers was so small. Several anomalies, natural consequences of the former conditions, still persist, but the number of these will gradually diminish, and their disappearance should in itself do much to reduce still further the present small percentage of appeals. Staffing. So far a number of schools have been unable to fill, all vacancies on the staff with teachers possessing the classification required by regulations. This difficulty is partly due to the fact that the supply of teachers in the higher grades is comparatively small, and partly to the disinclination of teachers, especially those who are married, to face the expense of removal from one town to another. Others, again, who have not completed their University work elect to remain in a, large centre rather than seek promotion in souk; smaller town where they will have no opportunity of attending University lectures. The difficulty is to some extent inevitable during the early years of a new grading scheme ; and as teachers complete the service necessary for the higher grades the number available will naturally increase. The provision by means of which teachers of exceptional merit may pass more rapidly through the various grades should also increase the supply. Since, for the reasons above indicated, schools in the smaller towns are chiefly affected, the situation .might be relieved by offering more inducement to teachers to seek employment in these schools by granting a bonus, or by paying reasonable transfer expenses where such transfer is approved by the Department. The need for economy, however, is a serious obstacle in the, way of this proposal, as, indeed, of any that involves increased expenditure. The grading-sysfem has occasionally been condemned by reason of this difficulty in staffing, but, though teachers from time to time suggest modifications, the general feeling appears to be favourable towards it, as offering a definite prospect of promotion and a fairly clear view of ultimate possibilities. The lack of this view was one of the strongest reasons which formerly induced teachers to take up teaching temporarily and leave it as soon as possible for other professions. It was unfortunate that so shortly after the new scheme was launched financial stress seriously hindered its further progress, but the same stress has naturally reacted upon other professions, and in that way increased the supply of teachers. There is reason to hope that in normal times the salaries now offered for the higher positions will be sufficient to induce a large number of these teachers to adopt teaching as their life's work. Training of Teachers. Reference; has previously been made in these reports to the need of training for secondary teachers. The position has not materially altered, and teachers of high academic qualifications but without teaching experience must frequently be placed in charge of junior classes. The effect upon pupils who leave highly trained and experienced teachers to begin their secondary work under such conditions is often apparent throughout their whole course. On the other hand, a certain number of applicants for grading have already passed through a training college, and it is desirable, as soon as the supply is sufficient, to admit no teacher to the secondary schools who is without training or experience. Valuable work of this character has already been accomplished in some of the larger schools where heads of departments have been appointed. These have arranged schemes of work, suggested methods of treatment, and criticized and directed the work of junior teachers. Teachers' Associations. In May, 1921, the Secondary Schools Association and the Secondary Schools Assistants' Association decided to amalgamate. Hitherto Principals and assistants have, for the most part, met in separate bodies for the discussion of various matters connected with secondary education. In future they will meet annually in one association to deliberate upon topics of common interest. The change, will make for closer co-operation between Principals and staffs, and consequent unity of effort in the cause of education. The Inspectors welcomed the invitation to be present at both conferences as a valuable opportunity of hearing the views of representative teachers. (lenekal. The improvement in the quality of teaching mentioned in the last report has been steadily maintained. Teachers, on the whole, display a growing interest in educational reform, and a readiness to discuss the comparative values of various methods of instruction. Meetings of the staff or of groups of teachers are held in most schools, in order to secure co-ordination and uniformity of teaching. While it is unnecessary to review what has already been given in inspection reports, certain features are worthy of special notice. The tendency in most schools is to define more clearly the various courses of work open to the pupils, so that those who are not preparing to enter the professions or to take up University work may have a complete course suited to their needs and capable of accomplishment within the period

during which they remain at school. As a consequence the study of Latin is being more closely restricted to those who require it for special examinations. This is spieeially noticeable in girls' schools, and in some schools it has practically disappeared from the curriculum. In such cases it is desirable to include translations of Greek and. Latin authors in the literature; under study, and to devote sufficient time to French to allow it to be dealt with thoroughly enough in all branches, including oral work, grammar, and translation, to compensate for the elimination of the study of the dead languages. A small proportion of the, pupils take no foreign language, and give the time to English, commercial, subjects, agriculture, and woodwork. The number of pupils who fail, after two years to reach a standard sufficient to justify the continuance of their free places suggests that they should concentrate upon a more restricted syllabus. Then; are still, however, parents who believe that the exclusion of Latin from a pupil's studies is an unjustifiable deprivation, and consequently the subject is often substituted for others more suited to his natural aptitude and ability, as well as to the length of time he is likely to remain in a secondary school. Conclusion. The tone of the secondary schools is excellent, and discipline is maintained with little or no show of force. The prefect system is used in most schools, and in one much of the discipline is entrusted to a- School Council under the guidance of the Principal. A feature worthy of special commendation is the large, amount of time voluntarily given by teachers to organized games, school clubs, and the various institutions which make for character-building as well as for the rational employment of leisure time.
