EXHIBIT No. 107. Proposed Colonial Scale of Staff and Salaries.— Scheme C.

Aided schools, 1-14; capitation at £5. * Capitation is payable on the number in excess of the lower of the two numbers in the column " Average Attendance ": for instance, the salary in a school of 15 is £80; in a school of 25, £130 or £144, &c. Salaries of Pupil-teachebs. First year, £20, with allowance of £10 if obliged to live away from home. I Third year, £40, with allowance of £5 if obliged to live away from home. Second „ £30, „ £10 | Fourth „ £50, „ £5 (a.) The number of male assistants must not exceed the number of female assistants (in- (c.) Instead of adding a pupil-teacber, a Board may add £35 to the salary of an ascluding the mistress). sistant. (6.) At least three out of the first six assistants in any school above 510 (exclusive of the (/.) Only one of these chaDges (c), (d), and (c) will be allowed in schools not over 420, mistress) must be female assistaots. and only two in schools over 420. (c.) An assistant at £80 may be substituted for two pupil-teachers; or vice versa. (g.) The total number of pupil-teachers in any education district must not be increased (d.) Instead of an assistant, a pupil-teaoher may be employed, £45 being added to the by such changes as (c), (d), and (c) above the number allowed for such district by salary of another assistant. the scale. N.B.—The salary allotted to any position in the above scale is subjeot to a deduction of 1 per cent, for each class, and 4 per cent, for each division of the teacher's certificate below the class and division of the certificate assigned to that position; but no salary shall thereby be reduced to less than £80. 27th June, 1901. Geoege Hogben. Note.—As I find that the total amount for teachers' salaries and for allowances to Boards under this scale is still far within the limit of a £4 capitation, when the whole year is taken into account, I should like to amend Scale C by raising the minimum salary of £80 in all cas<-s to £85—viz., in the case of the mistress in schools of 40 to 50, and of the last assistant in schools above 275 ; also, to raise the salary of the mistress in schools of 50 to 70 from £85 to £90. 29th June, 1901.
