p Pcrlilit Teachers Still Required In Large Numbers

Some improvement in teacher shortage in Prince Edward Island is reported this year by officials of the Provincial Department of Edu- cation. -

At present there are more schools without teachers than during 194-1. but applications to teach are being rccciverl daily and the situation is actually better than it was at this time last year.

One explanation given is that mosttlistricts are now voting more -geril-.rbus supplements. However, m-zilyr icacilcrs continue to be em- ployed on permits only. Last your tllcrc were eighty teachers in this class. and this year the number ls nearly as great.

Cu. s espondencc Courses

Instruction by correspondence. instituted last year to meet the teacher shortage problem, will he expanded this year to include grades 8, 9 and 10 as well as grades 1 to '1. Last year 124 pupils received correspondence courses di- rectly, and some 2,400 indirectly.

A short course for all permit teachers and older teachers re- iuriling to the profession will be Igivfll during the Fall vacation. , The situation on the Island ‘ seems to be better than that exist- ing in Nova Scotla, which reports ii more acute teacher shortatteihis year than last. According to the Nova. Scotia Department of Edu- cation, many of the province's 900 married female teachers - about one-quarter of the total of 3,000- nre retiring now that the war has ended. The "uiifreezing" of teach- ers, who for the first time since ivar broke out may take any jobs they like after Sept. i, also is contributing to che shortage.
