division of element ary and high schools and re organize the traditional setup of graded school years a report from st thomas says education minister porter an nounced the new system in an address that also disclosed changes to be made in curricula and teach ing methods he said some of the changes will come into effect at the beginning of the 1950 school term next september others will take several years speaks to teachers speaking to a meeting of 250 st thomas and elgin teachers he outlined this fivepoint program 1 no more high school entrance examinations 2 reorganization of the present 13 grades into four divisions primary junior intermediate and senior to eliminate the dividing line between primary and second ary schools 3 redistribution of the teaching load in the higher divisions by transferring certain subjects change responsibility 4 shifting the responsibility for outlining the courses in element ary schools to the local or munici pal level 5 special changes in various school subjects to meet changing needs and conditions and keep abreast of changing world mr porter said the elimination of high school entrance examina tions is designed to end the arbit rary break between grade s the last elementary school year and grade 9 the first high school term under the fourdivision system courses could be made more con tinuous provides more details in his address mr porter out lined the proposed position of teachers students and curricula in relation to the four divisions he said some 45 per cent of ontario students leave school by the time they reach 16 and the system is designed to give them a wellrounded course so they will finish formal schooling with a sense of achievement rather than of failure the primary division would be roughly equivalent to grades 13 for pupils aged g8 consideration is being given to a system where by a teacher would have pupils from all three age groups perhaps 10 sixyearolds and as many aged seven and eight thus the young ster would have the same teacher for three successive years pupils will hove on under such an organization from eight to ten pupils would move on the next division junior each year while eight to ten beginners from kindergarten or directly from home would enter the class mr porter said by such an organization rigid grade limits can be broken down and it is hoped that much of the wastage at present resulting from retardation may be avoided the junior division will be organized similar to the primary division a class consisting of about 30 pupils divided among the age levels nine ten and eleven provides vocation the intermediate di isiori will bo designed for pupils aged 1210 completion of this division would provide a wellrounded schooling for those pupils leaving at the age of 1g it must also provide voca tion subjects for those pupils who have already decided to enter business and industry at the age of 10 for those pupils planning to enter the senior division the inter mediate division would provide an exploratory period in which most pupils would select the course in which they wished to specialize plans for the senior division have keep poultry drinking water safe with i
