EDUCATION BOARDS AND SCHOOL COMMITTEES.
i IlKVEiißisu to the actiom of tho Wan gauui Education Board in deciding at its last meeting to send the Inspectors' reports and remarks upon the standard examinations direct to the teachers, instead of, as heretofore, to the chairman of committees, the Standard says : — Of course that may be taken na un indication that the committees have no right to see these reports, which are of vital interest to every parent, without the consent of the teachers. How a committee can be j seriously asked to decide upon the suitability of a teacher without seeing the full results of the examinations, we cannot even guess, and there certainly should l)e a strong protest against this highhanded action of the Wnnganui Board. One would think that the committees were subservient to the Boards, instead of the members of the latter being merely representative of the Committees. The sooner some better definition of the relations supposed to exist between the two bodies is arrived at by the Legislature, the better will it be for the cause of education.
