STAFFING OF SCHOOLS.
Regulations were gazetted last week consolidating those which were drafted to meet the new conditions of salaries and staffing provided in the Education Act, 1908, and the amendment passed last session. There is only one new feature of general interest, this being the remedying of an awkward defect of the previous regulations, which contained tables showing the progressive stages of staffing and salaries as the average attendance increased. There was no table, to guide education authorities in readjusting staffs where the average attendance diminished. Congested city schools might suffer a sudden drop through a new school being provided in an .adjacent district. The new "C" table enables prompt adjustments to be made each quarter while the average attendance is diminishing. The -amending Act will come into operation on January Ist, and as it only passed
at the end of the session the Education Department has displayed great promptitude in the preparation of the regulations.
