He suggested that schools with less than 10 pupils might be | closed and the pupils transport- | | ed to a larger centre where the | educational opportunities for stu- dents would be enhanced. TWO-YEAR TEACHER COURSE It was the general opinion of the council that a two-year be introduced. ‘ gi Some council members felt that it should be one year pro fessional and one year academ- ic and that the professional might include some training, if possible, in art, drama,. musie and physical education. All were agreed, however, that : a basie program of professional -| training was esse-tial and that |an enriched academic program should also be followed. Dr. Frank MacKinnon, prin- cipal of Prince of Wales College | pointed out that there was some turnover in teachers from year to year’ and thaf some took . up teacher training as a stop gap measure for something else. Mr. MacKenzie said that this has been true to a large extent in the past but it is noticeable to- | day that there is a higher degree | of stability and retention of tea- | chers, particularly in the high schools.
