    year. On the 1st January following such department shall (in accord-
    ance with clause 15 hereof) be staffed in accordance with the yearly aver-
    age attendance thereat; and, further, nothing in the said clause shall be
    deemed to affect the salary of any member of the staff of such department
    who shall not have been appointed or removed thereunder.

  2. In the case of the establishment of a new district high school, the
    average attendance of the primary and secondary departments thereof
    shall be found, in accordance with clause 6 hereof, in the same way as if
    such primary and secondary departments respectively were new schools;
    but in no case shall any school, in consequence of this clause, be placed
    in a grade lower than that in which it would have been placed had the
    district high school not been established.

  3. Every district high school shall, in accordance with section 87 of
    the principal Act, be under the charge of the headmaster, who shall, sub-
    ject to the general control of the Board, exercise due supervision and con-
    trol over the staff and the work of the secondary department, but need
    not himself give instruction therein.

  4. In the organization of a district high school it shall be observed
    as a general principle that the teachers of the secondary department shall
    not be employed in the primary department of such school, except in so
    far as it may be necessary for one or more of them to give instruction
    during the time that the head teacher is giving instruction in the
    secondary department; nor, in general, shall a teacher in the primary
    department other than the head teacher be permitted to devote any part
    of the ordinary school hours to instruction in secondary subjects.
