thesis
posted on 2021-12-13, 23:27 authored by Le Petit, Eric NormanFollowing on a visit paid by the Director
of Education for New Zealand to some of the Australian
states where Correspondence Classes had already been in
operation for some years, it was decided to introduce on a
much smaller scale a similar method of instruction to serve
the educational needs of the very isolated families in New
Zealand. A sole teacher was appointed to initiate the
scheme but it is evident that, from the beginning, the Department had no reliable estimate of the subsequent growth
of the institution nor of the work which it was later to
accomplish.
