At the Government House at Wellington, this 28th day of October, 1925.

Present:

His Excellency The Governor-General in Council.

IN pursuance and exercise of the powers and authorities vested in him
by the Education Act, 1914, and the amendments of that Act, and of
all other powers and authorities enabling him in this behalf, His Excellency
the Governor-General of the Dominion of New Zealand, acting by and with
the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said Dominion,
doeth hereby make the regulations set forth in the Schedule hereto relating
to the Teachers' Register; and, with the like advice and consent, doth prescribe
that this Order shall be deemed to have come into force on the first day of
April, one thousand nine hundred and twenty-five.

SCHEDULE.

  1. A REGISTER of teachers (hereinafter referred to as the “Teachers’
    Register”) shall be published annually in conjunction with the graded
    lists of primary, technical, and secondary teachers.

  2. The register shall consist of a list containing the names arranged in
    alphabetical order of the following persons:—

(a.) All teachers who on the 1st day of April, 1925, were employed
permanently.

(b.) All temporary and relieving teachers who hold teachers’ certificates
or licenses to teach issued prior to 10th April, 1925, and who
have applied to be registered.

(c.) All persons to whom teachers’ certificates or licenses to teach are
issued subsequent to the 1st day of April, 1925.

(d.) All other persons who apply to be registered and who in the opinion
of the Director are deemed to be qualified and suitable for ap-
pointment as teachers.

  1. There may, at the discretion of the Director, be entered in the register
    such information regarding the academic qualifications and status of the
    teachers whose names are entered thereon as may, in the opinion of the
    Director, appear advisable.

  2. Supplementary lists containing the names of teachers who have been
    registered after the issue of the main register shall be published monthly
    in the Education Gazette as well as in the New Zealand Gazette.

  3. The Director shall from time to time remove from the Teachers’
    Register the names of all persons recorded therein who are deceased, or
    who have notified their resignation or retirement from the teaching pro-
    fession, or who have not within the preceding two years held any appoint-
    ment as a teacher and have not before the 1st January next preceding
    the date of issue of the register applied for the retention of their names
    on the register.

  4. Any person whose name has never appeared on the register but who
    desires to be registered shall furnish the Director with original documents
    bearing testimony to his academic qualifications, his status as a teacher,
    his experience, his skill in teaching, and his general character.

  5. It shall be the duty of every Board or other body employing a
    registered teacher to give immediate notification to the Director of any
    act of misconduct on the part of the teacher that may warrant the removal
    of the name of such teacher from the Teachers’ Register.

  6. Any appeal against refusal of registration or against cancellation of
    certificate and registration must be made in writing within forty-two days
    of the date on which notice of such refusal or such cancellation was sent
    to the person affected.

C. A. JEFFERY,
Acting Clerk of the Executive Council.
