(i.) Certificated teachers who are for the time being employed in secondary schools, technical schools, or private registered schools, or
who have not been in the employment of an Education Board
for a period of three years preceding the date of their application for grading, may be placed in such groups as shall, on the
recommendation of an Inspector of Schools, be approved by the
Director, and such grading shall be deemed a provisional grading:
(j.) A teacher who by reason of exceptional circumstances is receiving
a salary that would place him in a higher group than the group
to which, in the opinion of the Inspectors, he rightly belongs shall,
with the approval of the Director, be graded in Group I, or such
higher group as may be recommended by the grading officers.
(2.) A training-college student entitled to be graded and any teacher
who has not previously held a position under an Education Board shall be
placed in Group 1:
Provided that in special circumstances the Director may, on the
recommendation of the Inspectors, direct that any such student or
teacher shall be placed in a group higher than Group 1.
(3.) New Zealand teachers who take service in schools in the South
Sea Islands shall be placed in the grading group to which their New Zealand status, taken in conjunction with their new responsibilities, appears to
entitle them, provided that when, in the opinion of the Director, further
increase in efficiency marks appears to be retarded in consequence of the
quota marks remaining unaltered, the teacher shall be placed in a higher
grading group, but in no case shall higher quota marks be awarded than
in a New Zealand school of corresponding size and corresponding staffing.
