§ Colonel DAYasked the President of the Board of Education whether any further progress has been made with the different governments who were communicated with in regard to the inter change of teachers as discussed at the Imperial Education Congress; if the difficulties that previously impeded the free interchange of teachers has been removed; and what specific steps are being, or have been, taken to adopt this recommendation?
§ Lord E. PERCYThe overseas Education Departments were informed in May last year of the Board's acceptance of the scheme recommended by the Imperial Education Conference. I have much pleasure in stating that the Governments of the Dominion of New Zealand, of the 1887W Provinces of Ontario, Nova Scotia, Alberta and Saskatchewan, of the States of New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia, and of the Province of the Transvaal have accepted it. Arrangements for the interchange of teachers between this country and those parts of the Empire for the next school year are now being made in accordance with that scheme.
