SUPPLEMENTARY REPORT ON EXAMINATION OF CANDIDATES FOR "CERTIFICATES OF FITNESS."

Miss Hannah Jane Elsey was examined on the 6th, 7th, and 8th February. An entirely different set of questions was prepared for the occasion. The answers were, on the whole, uncommonly good. Miss Elsey has had the advantage of a polite education, and, having had considerable experience and practice as a private governess, but not much school work, has attained a certificate of the second division of the above class.

BOARD OF EDUCATION.

(FEBRUARY 6—MARCH 30, 1872.)

INSPECTOR’S MONTHLY REPORTS.

To THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD,

Sir,

I have the honour to submit reports on the schools examined and inspected, and on other business.

A report having been submitted on the result of the first quarterly examination of candidates for Certificates of Fitness, showing that three out of the eight candidates were successful in obtaining the certificates for which they competed—a report was added, showing that one mistress, the only female candidate, had obtained a similar certificate.

Certificates have also been awarded to Mr. Mayo and Mrs. Jennings, of the Papanui District School, in accordance with their very successful conduct of the Papanui Church School for many years. Mr. Joseph Ward has also been certified to be competent for the mastership of the Ashburton School.

The Misses Stewart, Derrett, Taylor, Buxton, and Borland have been certified competent to act as assistant mistresses under the guidance of principal teachers.

Information has been obtained by visiting the Lincoln and Broadfield Districts, showing the desirability of annexing certain sections to the latter district.
