1. STAFF.
Mr. G. N. Orme, who had been in charge of the Department since February 22nd 1924, was invalided home on December 16th 1925, and I was appointed to act from that date.
Mr. G. P. de Martin went home on leave on February 7th, and Mr. A. R. Cavalier on March 31st, and their places were taken by Mr. A. R. Sutherland and Mr. Y. P. Law.
Two new masters and two new mistresses were appointed from England. Four masters and three mistresses left.
Two masters, Mr. R. E. O. Bird and Mr. H. B. Mould, retired.
At the end of the year the staff consisted of:-
British Non-British Total Men Women Men Women Inspectors 3 3 6 Sub-Inspectors 8 8 Teachers 24 42 108 33 207 Total 27 42 119 35 221These figures show a decrease of 12 British and an increase of 3 Non-British members of the staff as compared with the figures for 1924. The deficiency was made up by the local appointment of 4 Temporary Mistresses. Chiefly in consequence of the reduction in the number of pupils due to the exceptional circumstances of the year, 11 Temporary Mistresses left in the latter part of the year.
Eight Students in training graduated at the University and were appointed to masterships in Government Schools. At the end of the year the number of University Trained Teachers graduated on the staff was 8.
2. PUPILS IN GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS.
Particulars and Statistics of the various Government Schools are given in Table III.
A.-BRITISH SCHOOLS.
The Quarry Bay Junior School, started in 1924, had a most successful year under able management. The new building is well advanced. Our thanks are again due to Messrs. Butterfield & Swire for their kindly interest in the welfare of the school and for their loan of its present premises. The Central British School is already finding that the 5 new class rooms built in 1924 are not enough to provide for its natural expansion.
