During the past year, the C.'I‘.I‘. General Secretary, Croskery, with the aid of provincial organiza- tions, has prepared a voluminous report on “Working and Living Conditions of Teachers." This re- port was presented, along with those prepared by others, at tho Canadian Education Association. during their annual convention re- contly held in Fredericton, New Brunswick. This whole report will be available later in the year.

Education Week this year, and in the future, will be held during the month of March. iThis year March 5th. to llth.) This change was made, as it is felt that provin- cial organizations cannot so well prepare for a fall Education Week, so few months after school open- ing. During the past year, the usual type program was carried out by the Island Federation. _

An alert committee, headed by Miss Estelle Bowness, directs the 1 Public Relations program for the

I Federation. Various members of é the Federation have spoken to

The Federation newsletter is dis- tributed to all newspapers and ra- dio stations, and to Presidents of various organizations.

This year, as a new publicity feature, our organization plans to conduct educational forums with such influential organizations as Farmers‘ Federations, Women's Institutes, the Legion, et cetera.

Last year, our Board of Gov- ernors passed a resolution by which any one who has taught 30 years might retire on part pension irrespective of age. Our office was advised that since there is to be a consolidation of various acts at the coming Legislature, we should wait until that more opportune time for our contemplated change.

Just here, we should like to pay tribute to one of our City teacher members, now rctircd from his du- tics on the Superannuation Com- mission. Mr. Herbert Yeo, for many years Principal of West Kent School, has long been a faithful servant of all our Island teachers, having always given the best of his ability in upholding on the Pension Commission the rights of our Federation members. sure that we are all greatly apprec- iative of Mr. Yen's efforts on

Now, coming to the subject of curriculum. The Teachers’ Fed- .eration has a large curriculum committee, who mcet with the Dc- partment of Education to discuss curricular changes, and study sug- lgosted textbooks. It is worthy of note here that not every province of Canada has had until very re-

cently representation on such a

committee with its Department of

Education. As most of you are ac-

ciuainted with what beneficial lchanges .have occurred in this re- |gai'd, we shall not repeat them

at this time, During the present yrcar the committee contemplates ,to continue curriculum study un- l til our whole curricular content is generally satisfactory. We should ‘be all most grateful to Chief Su-

pervisor. Malcolm MacKenzie, Di-

rector of Curriculum, for his un- i tiringly painstaking efforts in this ' field of activity.

During the past year, the Feder- Iation was represented at various educational conferences outside ithe Province. Mr. Ralph Mac- i Lin attended the Maritime School Broadcasts. and Mr. Elmer Pineau, represented us on the Maritime Common Examining Board, Also, our President, Mr. J. R Murphy, sat in at the Canadian Education Conference recently held in Fred- ericton. N. B- and the usual num- ber of three delegates attended the C. T. F. annual convention at Ot- tawa in August.

Since our C. T. F. has not been |host to the conference of C. T. F. - delegates for some twenty years,

at the past conference the Island

Federation provided a dinner for l the delegates at a met-ling which

was addressed by Dr. Althouse,

Past-President of C.E.A. Dr. Alt-

houaesfls address will be fully pub-

lished later this fall.

General Secretaries‘ Conference

At the request of the other Eas- tern Canadian general secretaries, it is planned to convene a con- ference of general secretaries and possibly of presidents too. in Char- lottetown sometime the latter part of April. Your Island secretary ‘has been choscn convener of this conference. For several years past, the four Western provinces have held such meetings, and sometime before our meeting in Ottawa in August. they had made

full plans for this year's gather- ing of secretaries and presidents The Eastern conference, modelled on the Western one. will include all provinces east of Ontario, and including, we hope, Newfound- land. _F0llowing this year's re- gional conference in two differ- ent groups, it is hoped to meet as a national body rather than re- gional ones.

On behalf of the P.E.I. Teach- ers‘ Federation, we should like to commend the efforts of the School Board of this City for their im- provement in the financial status of urban teachers. Though not yet by a considerable deficiency, has it reached the levcl of salary males of urban centres of similar size in this Dominion, we realize that the Board's action is moving in the right financial direction, and we trust that IIIVIIIIG not-too- distant future. Charlottetown will show the way to the rest of the Island by bringing the City sche- dule up to a plane in which we may all take justifiable pride.

Tenure in our urban centres, Charlottetown and Summer-side, is at the _l'l-year mark; while that of the rural teacher ls at 6.8, and the Island average of all teach- ers ’ at 8.8. U _ " “y, the tenure is high because of the many married women in the pro- fesslon.

have gathered data from the veri- ous provinces in the hope of get- ting set up in this province a Certification Board on which our Federation may have worthy re- presentation.

Two more matters remain to be disposed of, viz, new proposed teacher-trustee contract, and an Island summer school for teachers. During the past year, a com- mittee, consisting of three P.W.C. teachers, and convened by Miss Vera Simpson, studied all provin- cial canitracta, in order to try to improve our present one, parti- cularly relating to tenure, a mat- ter for which the C.T.F. has been working in the past. Our pre- sent contract, as you know, does not offer continuity of contract. but automatically expires at the 0nd of the year, or at three monbhs‘ notice. Generall speaking. other provinces have security of tenure, and in some, teachers may be dismissed only for a justifiable cause. Even then, teachers may appeal to a Board of Reference. another desirable feature that we should try to secure, for our own protection against unfair prac- tices.

The only suggested noteworthy change is in Clause Number ti. giving continuity of contract. We may say here that Dr. Shaw has stated to the executive that he is completely in agreement with the principle of change. and at his request the attitude of teachers at the various conventions was to be noted.

This suggestion has been car- ried out at all convention cen- tres, but in some instances was turned down. Just what future action will be taken, we do not know; nevertheless, it seems strange that teachers do not dc- sire to be able to hold on to their positions longer than a year at e time. Or is it that our Island peo- ple are too conservative, except at election times?

Should this meeting have sug- gestions, we should like them em- bodied in a resolution for the guidance of your Board of Gov- ernors. A resolution favouring this new type of contract will be brought in, and we urge each teacher present to consider care- fully before registering his or her vote. We sincerely trust-that soon Prince Edward Island teachers will follow in line other progres- sive provinces, in the matter of adding security of tenure to its contract. (BC. by the way, the most progressive in education, has no contract at all.)

Summer School

Loatiy, the matter of summer school. During past years, many teachers have been urging the Federation to approach the De- partmcnit of Education concerning the matter of holding our own summer school for teachers on the Island. At our last meeting of the Board of Governors, thc question was thoroughly discuss- ed. The Board felt that before ap- proaching the Department, the at- titude of teachers at convention should be obtained. Before our annual meeting of the Board of Governors in November, we hope to have received all reports (which, according to the Press and other- wise, have been quite favourable). Tho idea is to enable ‘eaohers to improve their professional status and class of licence by receiving credits towards such, by attend- ing a provincial summer school for teachers. Many teachers, who now positively hesitate to endure the rigors of summer heat, etc., oufaida the province or because of home responsibilities, desire.to be able to attend school right here at home.

If you l0 desire, a resolution may be introduced, supporting such a school. At each conven- tion, in addition to a supporting resolution, we have had a show- ing of hands by those who will attend such a school. Having suoh approval and support from the teaching body of this province, we shall then be able to go to the Department of Education with a positive proposition. .

Your presiding officer, Miss Matheaon, has urged that your Island secretary give a full and comprehensive report for your careful deliberation.

We sincerely trust, nevertheless, that we have not too badly over-

,, ‘ the official request. May

your meeting reverberete lta auc- cesstul conclusions throughout the current eohool year. In conclusion, let me appeal to each teacher present, for the hearty and active support on be- half of the whole Federation of all and every worthwhile project that may be sat down in our future program of action. Without this all-important support. our Fed- eration executive and Board of Governors are more or lees lis- effective.

moet successful and prafelionelly
