PRESENTATION TO INSPECTORGENERAL OF SCHOOLS. Pek Ph.ebh Association. Wellington, April 11. Mr G. Hogben, retiring InspectorGeneral of Schools, was presented by the school inspectors with a purse of sovereigns. Mr 'lb 11, Fleming, chief inspector, Wellington, said Air Hogben had made the syllabus flexible, and rendered it possible for the children to go step by step to the University. The Hon. J. Allen (Minister for Education) praised Mr Hogben’s work, especially in the direction of making teachers work in the training colleges. To-day, he said, there is need for experimental work. Mr Hogben, in reply, emphasised the need of progress and liberty of action of the administrators. From the Gorman system they might learn thoroughly and efficiently, but its rigidity would never suit the British races.
