SECONDARY SCHOOLS.
BETTER SYSTEM ADVOCATED.
By Telegraph.—Press Association. Wellington, Last Night. At the Secondary Schools Conference, Mr. Caughley (Director of Education), spoke on the desirability of re-arrang-ing the primary and secondary courses. A high state of education required that the variety of work must be increased for children in a post-primary course. He considered New Zealand compared favorably with Australia in the matter of education, but the system would still improve with the adoption of a new system in certain directions.
It was decided, in order to form a strong and united body of secondary teachers, that it was desirable that principals and assistants form one secondary schools’ association, and to have equal voting power. A committee was set up to go into the matters connected with school cadets.
