STAFFING OF SCHOOLS.
A MINISTERIAL STATEMENT. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, Last Night. The Minister of Education stated in reply to a question in-the House of Representatives this afternoon that the Act of 1?X)8 provided for the gradual displacement of pupil teachers by adult teachers. When the Act comes completely into force it will give in eacli large school, beside the head teacher, one assistant for each fifty pupils. The staffing of schools was being improved gradually in accordance with the provisions of the 1908 Act, bub the process wn.s unavoidably retarded by the fact that the number of qualified teachers was not sufficient to fill .all the vacancies that would be created if the Act wero brought into full force at once.
