TEACHER SHORTAGE
QUESTION OP EXEMPTION
♦ ? n has arlsen in Auckland where at least two of the Grammar schools will be unable to obtain the services of science masters unless either exemption is granted to remaining teachers or qualified men already in the army are released to re !;e ye those now being called up. Sooner or later the remaining teaching staff must be exempted from military service or our educational system is going to collapse" said Professor Belshaw at yesterday's meeting of the Auckland Grammar School Board of Governors. He suggested setting up a small sub-com-mittee to consider the position and endeavour to resolve their attitude The proposal was supported bv*%i r A. S. Richards, M.P., who said the position was aggravated by the knowledge that frequently when men of specialised training, such as these teachers, had carried out their period of training in camp, they were frequently transferred to inferior or futile positions in the army, where their special training and knowledge was wasted. A committee was accordingly appointed for this purpose.
