1. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE CHIEF INSPECTOR OF SECONDARY SCHOOLS. Wellington, Ist July, 1929. Sir, — I have the honour to present the report for the year 1928. Early in the year the Inspectorate suffered a loss when Mr. W. T. Poster resigned bis position to become Principal of the Napier Boys' High School. Mr. J. B. Mawson, M.C., M.A., was appointed to fill the vacancy, and took up his duties as Inspector in May. The routine work of inspection, accrediting, examining, and grading, has been carried on very much as in previous years. A considerable portion of the first term was spent in visiting all the district high schools in the Canterbury, Otago, and Southland Education Districts, some twenty-nine in all. As in the previous year, conferences were held with the full staff of local Inspectors on the completion of the visits in their respective districts. These informal conferences are of undoubted value to both groups of Inspectors, and afford opportunity for discussion of not only the difficulties besetting individual schools, but also secondary-school methods in general. On the whole, the work being done in the secondary departments visited was very creditable indeed, due allowance being made for the unfavourable conditions under which much of the teaching is done. The remainder of the first half of the year was devoted in the main to the full inspection of eighteen of the departmental secondary schools. In these visits the practice is for two Inspectors to collaborate, two days as a rule being spent in the smallest schools, and as many as five in schools with seven hundred to nine hundred pupils. Although a' system of biennial inspections has been consistently aimed at for some years past, it has now been found advisable to modify the procedure by subjecting only about 40 per cent, of the schools to complete inspection in each year. This will leave more time for attention to the district high schools, which at present are paid a brief visit only once in three years. Two new secondary schools—Rongotai Boys' College (Wellington) and Avonside Girls' High School (Christchurch) —were opened last year, thus raising the number of departmental secondary schools to forty-three. Their aggregate roll on the Ist March, 1928, was 15,943. The number of registered private secondary schools now stands at forty-three also, four having been recognized in 1928, viz.— Sacred Heart Convent, New Plymouth ; St. Mary's Collegiate School, Christchurch ; Marist Brothers' School, Greymouth; and Craighead School, Timaru. Sixteen of these registered schools were inspected during the year. The number of appeals lodged by teachers against their classification was smaller than usual, and all but one of them were subsequently withdrawn ; in the single case heard the appeal was disallowed. The latter portion of the year was occupied with the customary visit to all the secondary schools in connection with the classification of assistant teachers and the accrediting of candidates for senior free places. The principle introduced in the preceding year of placing more responsibility upon the Principals in determining the fitness of their candidates has again been followed, and where the Inspectors were satisfied that the average standard of the Fourth Form work in the school was sufficiently high very little alteration was made in the list submitted by the Principal. The number of senior free places granted to candidates from departmental secondary schools on the Principals' recommendations has risen considerably in the past two years ; 2,563 were granted in 1926, 2,992 in the following year, and 3,165 in 1928. An additional 125 candidates obtained senior free places by passing the Intermediate Examination in November. There has been an increased demand, for both grades of leaving-certificates ; 778 secondary-school pupils were granted the higher certificate, and 85 the lower, all on recommendation ; included in these numbers are 104 and 3 respectively from registered private schools. The present position in connection with the Department's certificates of secondary instruction is not altogether satisfactory. In the first place, the nomenclature is somewhat misleading. The present lower leaving-certificate is granted to a pupil who has satisfactorily completed at an approved school at least a three-years course of secondary instruction, and. has in general reached a standard of attainment comparable to that required in the University Entrance or Class D Examination. The certificate is intended, in short, to certify that the holder has completed a good average secondary-school course. The value of the certificate to the ex-pupil seeking employment is, however, unmistakably diminished by the title "lower." The average employer, unskilled in the intricacies of educational nomenclature, is apt to stumble at the title, and to set down the holder as an inferior product of the secondary school. The present gradation of titles—" intermediate," " lower," " higher " —is, moreover, in itself open to objection. lam strongly of opinion that a more logical sequence, such as " lower school certificate," "schools leaving-certificate," and "higher leaving-certificate," would be more effective in every way. But there are other issues involved. At the present time our leaving-certificates are too closely associated with the candidate's success in the University Entrance Examination ; the lower certificate can be, and occasionally is, granted to candidates who do not sit either the Entrance or the Class D Examination, but the number of applications from such, candidates is very small indeed. The real explanation of this situation lies in the fact that most employers —not only those in Government and professional offices, but also those in commercial and industrial houses—have come to regard a pass in the Entrance Examination as the only reliable measure of a secondary pupil's attainment, and as a consequence the requirements of that examination dominate the curricula and outlook of our Fifth Forms to such an extent as to make it unusual for any pupil in them to avoid sitting the examination. It is fair to add that in most girls' schools there are considerable groups of girls who are not taking

E.—-6

courses leading to the entrance test, and in several boys' schools many of the agricultural-course pupils are in the same position ; as a rule, however, these pupils do not remain at school long enough to reach the upper Fifth Forms. It follows, then, that the vast majority of candidates for the lower leaving-certificates are also candidates for the Entrance Examination in the same year. What, then, is the remedy ? Should a school leaving-certificate, entirely independent of the Entrance Examination, be instituted to be granted to pupils after completing a three, or possibly a four, years' satisfactory secondary-school course ? If such is instituted, how is the required qualifying standard to be determined ? The obvious alternatives are either by an additional external examination or by an internal examination and the Principal's recommendation. If the latter procedure were adopted the public estimate of the value of the certificate would no doubt be somewhat low for several years, but ultimately the certificate would almost certainly be accepted by employers as a reliable record of the pupil's attainments. The other alternative, an external examination, was recommended by Mr. Tate in his special report in 1925, in these words : " That a system of public examinations, covering different types of school courses of three years' and six years' duration respectively, be established by the University, to supersede the present Matriculation Examination. Alternatively, it is possible for the Education Department to develop and carry out a system of secondary-school examinations and for the University to recognize the certificates issued by the Department, or certain of them, for Matriculation purposes." This is practically the system that now obtains in England and Wales, in Scotland, in Canada, and in several of the Australian States. As a rule the candidate for the certificate has a wide but not unrestricted choice. The Northern Universities Joint Board in England, for example, sets papers in thirty-two subjects, including such as spinning and weaving, mechanical engineering, needlework, cookery, laundry-work, housewifery, and handicraft. Under all the English Examining Boards the candidate who desires to qualify for Matriculation on the results of his certificate examination must obtain " credit," a higher mark than the " pass " required for certificate purposes, in at least five recognized Matriculation subjects. None of the subjects named above, by the way, are recognized for Matriculation purposes. Certificate examinations have evidently in the countries named been established to serve two purposes —first to provide a satisfactory record of school attainment for those pupils, undoubtedly the great majority, who do not intend to enter a University on leaving school, and secondly to avoid inflicting two independent examinations of approximately the same standard, in some subjects at least, upon pupils at the close of their third or fourth school-year. This dual-purpose examination is that recommended by Mr. Tate,- and is undoubtedly preferable to a duplicated examination. On the face of it the system recommended should work well, and should effectually remove the overshadowing tyranny of the University Entrance Examination. In actual practice, however, the certificate examination has not accomplished all that it was expected to do. In England the Board of Education does not impose restrictions on the courses to be followed in secondary schools any more than the Department does in New Zealand, yet in both countries there is constant reference in the public press and at educational conferences to the shortcomings of the existing examination systems, their domination and restriction of the school curricula, and their fettering of the teachers' hands. A leading English educational journal stated quite recently that the controversy regarding examinations began in England with an article in a review in 1888, and it had been going on ever since. In connection with the certificate examinations it went on to state that " University bodies not only control the conditions of entrance to Universities, which of course they have a right to do, but for practical purposes they are controlling the whole conception of a general education, which they have no right to do." Apparently the dual-purpose examination has failed to solve the difficulty in England. lam confident, nevertheless, that the institution of a certificate examination in New Zealand has much to commend it, and steps to consider its practicability should be taken in the near future. The recent acceptance by the University Council of the principle of accrediting for the Entrance Examination will be welcomed by the great majority of educationists in New Zealand. A certain amount of opposition must be expected, especially as the system has by no means won general approval in countries where it has been in operation for several years past. Less opposition has, however, been directed against the principle of the system than against its method of application. In New Zealand it has been obvious for some years that the Entrance Examination has threatened to break down under the sheer weight of the number of candidates. Various proposals for reducing these numbers have been submitted from time to time, but the most effective will undoubtedly be that of a judicious selection of the best candidates by the Principals of the various schools and the submission of the remainder to the external test as heretofore. The application of the system will need to be very carefully devised, and there are undoubtedly minor problems of procedure to be solved. lam confident, however, that a satisfactory working basis will be arrived at and that the new system will be working smoothly in 1930. "We believe," states a Home publication, " that what is needed is a compromise between our rigid system and the rather easy-going reliance on school records that one finds in America." Adequate safeguards for effecting that compromise without lowering in any way the entrance standard must now be provided. As regards the internal development of our schools one is justified in stating that Principals and staffs are in the vase majority of cases willing and anxious to keep in touch with modern movements in education. Conservatism is apparent in a few of the large city schools, to whose credit, however, it must be conceded that they are doing exceptionally good work on their own chosen lines. The movement towards L ' enriched," or broader curricula continues slowly but steadily-; as yet there is no evidence of a desire to-indulge in a wild orgy of vocational courses. Outside the four centres there is practically no school which confines its energies' to teaching the old-fashioned academic or professional course, and even in the large city schools art, manual work, and commercial work, are taught to large numbers of pupils. The scarcity of suitable qualified teachers of some of the special subjects continues to be a real hindrance in some instances, and the lack of suitable accommodation and equipment has

3

E.—6

retarded the movement in others. Just one-half of the schools attended by boys taught woodwork in 1928, and about one-fourth of these also taught metalwork. Drawing, usually both instrumental and freehand, is taught in all schools but three. Music or singing has so far been attempted in only a little over one-half of the schools. So far as vocational training is concerned there is no difficulty whatsoever in obtaining sufficient support for commercial courses, especially in the girls' schools. Typewriting and shorthand may have but very little educational value, but as secondary school subjects they have come to stay. Home life or domestic courses have been established in several girls' schools and have also met with satisfactory support. Agriculture, however, continues to present the same perplexing and somewhat discouraging features as it has done for the past ten vears at least. It is well to point out that no effort has been spared by educationists in this country to encourage the study of agriculture and its allied subjects. For a quarter of a century nature-study has occupied a place on the primary-school syllabus ; for a like period agriculture has been one of the subjects prescribed for teachers' certificate examinations; for twenty years it has been recognized as a subject of instruction for free place pupils ; for fourteen years it has been, along with dairy science, a compulsory subject for all boys in secondary departments of district high schools with a roll of less than seventy pupils—the compulsion applying in some cases to localities where the chief or only primary industry is fishing or mining ; and finally, for some twenty years from 40 to 60 per cent, of our boys' secondary schools have provided agricultural courses in their curricula. Some of these courses were planned on generous lines; large experimental areas, much too large in a few instances, were attached to the schools, and in the majority of cases instruction was also given in such vocational subjects as woolclassing, farm carpentry, &c. In 1916, the first year for which the records are readily available, thirteen out of the twenty schools attended by boys taught agriculture, and 48 per cent, of their boys learned the subject. In 1928 sixteen out of twenty-eight such schools provided agricultural courses, but these were followed by only 23 per cent, of the boys on their rolls. It is somewhat disappointing to learn that though the number of schools teaching the subject has increased in the period under review—only five of the boys' or mixed schools outside the four centres do not now teach it—yet the proportion of boys taking the agricultural course has been reduced by more than one half. A few secondary schools have been led to abandon the course through lack of support, in one case after very determined efforts indeed to retain it; one school at least has been deterred from proceeding with a proposed course owing to lack of response from the parents ; a few others are carrying on with but very meagre encouragement. In some instances the mediocre scope of the course or the unsympathetic attitude of the Principal or staff has been a contributing factor to non-success. There are schools, on the other hand, which offer not only dairy science and agriculture, but also woodwork and metalwork as well as wool-classing, herd-testing, and farm accounts, and where the work is undertaken by a specially qualified and competent teacher, and yet the percentage of pupils taking agriculture in these schools is usually under twenty. In two of the schools that have concentrated most on their agricultural courses it was only twelve in the one case and sixteen in the other in 1928. Rangiora, it should be noted, had as high as 26 per cent. After so long a recognition of the undoubted desirability of an agricultural bias in our education, both primary and secondary, and after so much ■ effort on the part of educationists and teachers, it is disconcerting to realize that agricultural courses have not become popular, and that there is no pronounced demand from parents for them. The bearing of the economic situation in this country upon the question of agricultural education has been referred to in previous reports and there is no need to elaborate the point again. Suffice it to say that so long as farm-lands are procurable only at the prevailing high prices the boy whose parents have but moderate means will not contemplate taking up farming ; he is not attracted by the prospect of working as a farm labourer for say fifteen years at least in order to scrape together enough capital to acquire a holding of his own ; the prospects in other vocations appeal to him much more strongly, especially if he has brains. Though the root of the trouble is apparent, the removal of the disturbing factor is beyond the control of educationists ; in the meantime, however, our efforts to encourage increasing numbers of our young people to look towards the land for their life work must continue unabated. The position with regard to the training of secondary-school teachers remains substantially the same. The time will ultimately come when a separate training college for secondary teachers must be established, and along with it a practising secondary school with a specially selected staff. Owing to the peculiar distribution of our population that time is probably many years distant. In the meantime, therefore, the present voluntary co-operation of the city secondary schools should be encouraged in every way. During 1928 nearly twenty training-college students were afforded opportunities of observation and practice in secondary schools and about another twenty in district and junior high schools. As the average number of new entrants into the secondary service (exclusive that is, of the beginners on technical and district high school staffs) has latterly been about sixty-five per annum, it is obvious that wider scope for practice is still a matter of urgency. So far as our own last year's entrants are concerned the situation is not without its redeeming features. Of the forty-two men only three were without either training college or previous teaching experience, and 79 per cent, had actually passed through a training college course. The figures for the women teachers were very similar, but somewhat lower owing to the inclusion of several commercial teachers and physical instructresses. It is to be remembered, too, that though home-science teachers as a rule do not take a training college course, both their diploma and their degree courses at Otago include a period of practice in teaching at a manual centre. It is gratifying to note, in conclusion, the spirit of co-operation that exists between the secondary schools and the Department, and on behalf of my colleagues and. myself, I have to express recognition of the friendly and frank attitude of the Principals towards all members of the Inspectorate. I have, &c., E. J. Park, Chief Inspector of Secondary Schools. The Director of Education.
