"That this association emphatically protests against the practice of children being taken into a strange school to sit for .their proficiency examination, and requests the Education Board to rnuko such arrangements as will obviate the necessity for the practice in future.” —This remit wo® placed before tho School Committees’ Association last night by the Taita School Committee, which suggested that nervous children were placed nt a serious disadvantage by being taken Io other schools for examination purposes. Several delegates agreed that the children would have a better chance in their own schools, and that the pupils of tho outlying schools suffered under the present system. The remit was adopted, with a suggestion that the board should send the request to the Department, which controls the inspectors.
