1. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE CHIEF INSPECTOR OF SECONDARY SCHOOLS. Wellington, 11th June, 1930. Sir — I have the honour to present the report for the year 1929. There is little fresh to record in the routine work of the Inspectorate. As in previous years, the middle portion of the first school term was devoted .to inspecting the secondary departments of district high schools. The education districts chosen on this occasion were those of Nelson, Wellington, Hawke's Bay, Wanganui, and Taranaki, and twenty-eight schools in all were visited. At the close of the inspection in each district a conference was held, with the local Inspectors, and problems relating to the various schools and staffs were discussed at some length. It is pleasing to record that the organization and the standard of work had distinctly improved in several schools since the last visit of the secondary Inspectors. In others improvement had been rendered difficult by changes in personnel of the staff, as these usually lead to a break in continuity in teaching methods and even, in some cases, in curricula ; in many instances, possibly the majority, a comparatively raw teacher replaces a more experienced one. The period from mid-April to mid-July was occupied mainly with the full inspection of eighteen of the departmental secondary schools and the remainder of the year with the customary visit to all the secondary schools for the purposes of classifying assistant teachers and of accrediting candidates for senior free places and for leaving certificates. During the year one new secondary school —the Waimate High School —was opened, thus raising the number of departmental secondary schools to forty-four. Their aggregate roll on the Ist March was 16,867, an. increase of 924. on the number for the preceding year. It is interesting to note that this increase is almost the same as that recorded in 1928 (950). One may add further that no great welling of the aggregate rolls may be looked for in 1930 and 1931, and that the total number of pupils in our secondary schools may reasonably be expected to diminish temporarily in 1932. The low birth-rates of the period 1917-1919 must inevitably affect the enrolment in the manner suggested. The number of registered private secondary schools was raised to forty-seven during the year by the registration of St. Matthew's Collegiate School for Girls, Masterton, the Marist Brothers' School, Hamilton, St. Catherine's Convent, Invercargill, and the Sacred Heart High School, Nelson. Thirteen of the registered schools were inspected during the year. Though the number of appeals lodged by teachers against their classification was much larger than usual only two sittings of the Appeal Board were necessary —one in Auckland and one in Dunedin. Of the fifteen appeals lodged twelve were withdrawn and three disallowed. The number of senior free places granted to pupils from departmental secondary schools on the Principals' recommendation continues to increase steadily, but, on the whole, not more rapidly than the total number of candidates offering. Senior free places on recommendation were obtained by 3,448 pupils, and refused to 1,452 ; 608 of these subsequently sat the Intermediate Examination, but only 123 succeeded in obtaining their senior free places by this method. Following the customary practice of accrediting, higher leaving-certificates were granted to 834 pupils, including 126 from registered private secondary schools. In 1928 the corresponding numbers were 778 and 104. The demand for lower leaving-certificates from the purely secondary schools continues to decline, and only sixty-six were granted this year, including ten to pupils in private schools. No progress was made during the year towards a satisfactory solution of the problem of school leaving-certificates. The whole question was dealt with at considerable length in my last report, and Ido not propose to traverse the same ground again. Further consideration of the requirements of the situation has, however, led me to advocate strongly the institution of a new school leavingcertificate, to be awarded on the result of an independent examination taken by secondary-school pupils at the close of their third or fourth year. Such an examination would need to be held at the same time as the University Entrance Examination, otherwise many pupils would submit themselves to both tests —a most undesirable procedure, and one to be discouraged by all means. Further, the institution of independent and synchronous examinations would materially reduce the present unwieldy number of candidates for the entrance test. It is possible that at the outset pirpils might hesitate to enter for the new examination, not caring to forgo the advantages which are undoubtedly associated with the passing of a University entrance test, but in a little while the status of a leaving-certificate ■would be satisfactorily established, and would secure the approval of public estimation. To adopt the procedure followed in Britain and in Australia and establish an examination to serve the dual purpose of leaving-certificate and University entrance, would merely perpetuate the evils of examination ridden curricula which educationists, both here and at Home, are so busily engaged in decrying. The severance of the two examinations would give the University authorities a better opportunity for gradually raising the standard of attainment required from young people entering upon degree courses ; a dual-purpose examination, on the other hand, would tend to preserve its own standard at the level of the requirements and capacities of pupils in their third and fourth year of secondary school work. Its institution and organization would probably be delayed and hampered by the establishment of a composite examining body representative of the aims and requirements of the University and of the schools, and its effect would undoubtedly be to add at least a thousand candidates annually to the already undesirably large number sitting the Entrance Examination.

So far as the training of secondary-school teachers is concerned matters remain very much as before. In three of the training-college centres students who desire to specialize in secondary-school work are given the opportunity of entering any of the local secondary or technical high schools ; they spend periods of from three to five weeks at a time in observing the work of expert teachers and in practising under skilled Heads of Departments. The system is undoubtedly imperfect, but the students are grateful for the opportunities provided, and for the help and guidance accorded to them by Principals and Heads of Departments. In Auckland the facilities described above are available at the technical school and the Kowhai Junior High School only. It is pleasing to note that more and more of our young teachers have availed themselves of the benefit of a training-college course. So far as the men are concerned, the proportion of trained teachers has for some years risen steadily, but during this last year a really notable record has been established, in that 97 per cent, of the male entrants into the ranks of the secondary-school teachers had passed through a training college. Of the forty-one women entrants thirty had either attended a trainingcollege or had obtained practice as home-science student-teachers, and six others had had previous teaching experience. It should scarcely be necessary to draw attention to these figures, but popular beliefs die hard, and the statement is still idly repeated in some quarters that the great majority of secondary-school teachers are quite untrained. Within the past two years a notable expansion of the system of Heads of Departments has taken place, and more and more Principals are availing themselves of the assistance of the abler senior members of their staffs and delegating to them some measure of responsibility for the maintenance of a high standard in the teaching of their particular subjects. In the large city schools in Wellington and in the South the Heads have been particularly helpful in superintending the practice of the students in training. The number of Heads that may be appointed is prescribed by regulations, and varies from one in schools with a minimum roll of 300 to three in schools with 600 pupils or more ; in general, also, it is required that there should be at least three junior teachers in the subject for which the Head is responsible. In 1929 the regulations permitted the appointment of forty-six Heads of Departments in all, but only thirty-five were actually employed ; of the eleven vacancies eight were in girls' and two in mixed schools. Turning to the standard of the work being accomplished in the secondary schools, and to the methods employed in attaining that standard, it may be stated that the year has been one of steady application and reasonable progress ; no startlingly new method of attack or presentation has been applied in the teaching of any subject, and, on the whole, the tendency has been to realize that, after all, some of the older methods had in them many elements that made for soundness and thoroughness. Unfortunately, they were often of such a nature as to fail to retain, or even to arouse, the pupil's interest, and by their very thoroughness they sometimes succeeded in creating an actual distaste for the subject studied. It was only natural that following the lead and guidance of expert and earnest educationists we should adopt brighter and less rigid methods, and seek to give the pupil greater scope to develop his own aptitudes in his own way. There is a growing conviction among many teachers, however, that as applied to some subjects the new methods have gone a little too far in their laudable desire to escape from formalism, and that, as a consequence, our school-children have not the sound knowledge of certain fundamental processes that their predecessors of ten to twenty years ago possessed. In English the teaching of literature continues to develop satisfactorily, and in most schools the library is becoming more and more a centre of general interest. The practice of setting aside definite periods in the library for silent reading is also steadily growing. On the other hand, there has been a distinct lapse in the standard reached in formal work, with the inevitable result that the teaching both of English composition a.nd of foreign languages has been seriously affected. While it is admitted that some of the fault lies with the secondary school, it is also true that many new entrants, in some cases the great majority, come up insufficiently prepared in formal work. The primary-school syllabus, although purposely stated in fairly general terms, is for the most part adequate, so that the main responsibility lies with the individual school or teacher. A more general insistence upon definite and accurate grammatical knowledge would be of distinct benefit to the pupil in his secondary course. It is a little disconcerting, too, to realize that, in spite of the increasing amount of time devoted in recent years to the reading and appreciation of literature, both in primary and in secondary classes, there has been no apparent commensurate development of the pupils' power of expression as judged by their composition work, and that so far as the more mechanical points of composition are concerned —spelling, punctuation, sentence-structure, &c. —the work of many of our first-year pupils is pitifully weak. There is no gainsaying the fact that the standard of spelling among entrants to secondary schools has deteriorated considerably during the past ten years or so. Whether this deterioration has resulted from the adoption of new methods of teaching the subject in the primary schools, I am not in a position to state, but it is to be hoped that a remedy may soon be found for the present state of affairs. As far as the teaching of foreign languages is concerned there is little fresh comment to make. Latin continues to be taken by only a comparatively small proportion of pupils (a little over 38 per cent.). In some ways this preference for Latin over French is to be regretted. In the early stages there should be little difference in attraction between the two, especially nowadays, when interesting text-books in Latin are available. In ease of pronunciation Latin undoubtedly has the advantage. For pupils who are destined to proceed only a short way in a foreign language, an elementary knowledge of Latin is possibly more useful than a little French, since even a small vocabulary will provide the key to many groups of derived English words. For those, however, who contemplate proceeding to more advanced studies the choice is not so obvious, as a mastery of Latin is admittedly more difficult of attainment and probably offers fewer practical advantages than does the ability to read and appreciate current French literature.

In the teaching of history in lower forms and at the post-entrance stage a good deal of interesting and original work is being done, such as the compilation of individual illustrated historical sketches of the history of the Dominion by the younger pupils, and in the Sixth Forms the application of elementary research methods. In Fourth and Fifth Forms, however, many teachers allow themselves to be hampered by the necessity of imparting and revising the knowledge of sufficient facts for examination purposes. This is to be deplored, particularly in the Fourth Forms, for whom the Department's syllabus is intended to be suggestive only ; a considerable enlargement of certain sections, and the curtailment of the treatment of others in accordance with the special tastes of the teacher, would be very desirable in many instances. Geography has not yet succeeded in obtaining the place in our secondary schools' curricula to which its importance and its value as a medium of cultural training entitle it. Many Principals would gladly give the subject more attention than it receives at present, but for the difficulty in finding adequate time for a proper study of it. Where pupils learn two foreign languages there is admittedly little time for geography, but the subject should be a prominent constituent of every course provided for " modern " or non-Latin pupils. The work in arithmetic submitted by the Senior National Scholarship and Public Service Entrance candidates at the last November examinations was of a disappointing standard, and was most severely criticized by the examiners. For this weakness the secondary schools must take their fair share of blame. In the past two or three years, however, teachers in secondary schools have complained that the pupils coming up from the primary schools are not as well-grounded in arithmetic as they used to be. So far as proficiency in mechanical processes is concerned, the complaint is certainly well founded. Whether it is because less time is now devoted to " tables " than in the past, or whether other subjects in the primary syllabus have engrossed more of the pupils' time and attention than formerly, is not easy to adjudge, but the inability of many entrants into our secondary schools to add or to multiply correctly has become dispuietingly apparent in the past few years. It is obvious that unless the standard of arithmetic in our secondary schools is to fall our teachers must be prepared to devote more time and energy to the subject than has hitherto been the case. In the early stages it will be well to make some special effort to ensure mechanical accuracy before giving instruction in newer and more difficult branches of the subject. Though the teaching of agriculture has by no means been neglected, there,is little to record by way of progress. The subject, as a part of a semi-vocational course, is still taught in sixteen boys' or mixed secondary schools ; but the percentage of boys taking it in. these schools has not risen beyond that recorded in my last report (twenty-three). It is interesting to note that for the last three years (1927-29) the percentages of all boys leaving Departmental secondary schools to take up agricultural or pastoral pursuits have been seventeen, eighteen, and nineteen. Whether the prevailing economic depression will materially affect the percentage remains to be noted in. next year's report. As many as 53 per cent, of the boys who completed their schooling at Rangiora High School last year took up farming-work, and this school is to be congratulated on the success attending .its efforts to counteract the townward drift of young folk. Closely following Rangiora were Waitaki Boys' High School (48 per cent.), Dannevirke High School (40 per cent.), and Gore High School (37 per cent.). It is of some interest to observe that these figures are not very dissimilar to those of the technical high schools with the highest percentages —viz., Ashburton (53 per cent.), Pukekohe (52), and Feilding (45). Not all post-primary schools can be expected to turn out young farmers or farm-workers on such a generous scale, nor from an economic point of view would it be advisable or desirable to attempt to do so. The large city schools very naturally contribute much smaller proportions of youths to the ranks of those earning their living on the land, and, in consequence, the percentage of boys leaving all types of post-primary Departmental schools to take up farm work was in 1929 a modest twentyone. In 1927 it was nineteen, but rose to twenty-one in the following year, and has since remained practically stationary. When from the 1926 census tables it is learnt that 28-18 per cent, of all male workers who described their industry or occupation were engaged in agricultural and pastoral pursuits, it would appear at first sight as if our schools were not coping with the normal demand for rural workers. It must not be forgotten, however, that as many as 2,433 boys left primary schools last year to work on farms, and it is probably not realized that 30 per cent, of the boys who completed their schooling at all types of public schools in New Zealand in 1927 took up farming on leaving school; in the following year the percentage rose to 31, and at that figure it remained last year also. These numbers are by no means alarmingly low, but the margin of security for an adequate supply of people permanently engaged in rural industries is undoubtedly small; and if, as is highly to be desired, the 1931 census is to record a greater rural quota than 28-18 per cent, it behoves all schools, and particularly the secondary schools, to avoid fostering unduly any tendencies that will encourage either an urban drift or the neglect of our greatest, almost our only, primary industry. In conclusion, I am again pleased to record my appreciation of the efforts of the secondary-school staffs to maintain a high standard of efficiency and to co-operate willingly with the Inspectors in their work. I have also to express my appreciation of the whole-hearted co-operation of my colleagues. I have, &c, E. J. Pare, Chief Inspector of Secondary Schools. The Director of Education.
