but thai Ihe present teacher surplus is likely to continue for a few years He said he believes the competition among teachers for jobs will ensure that better candidates obtain jobs Other major trends foreseen by Mr Wells are a freer access to school facilities for parents and other adults interested in con tinuing education programs development of alternatives to formal classroom learning that would lead to opportunities for secondary school students to cam course credits outside the school additional assistance to the village but had been rejected because the province Is supplying all the assistance It can so charges for each of sewers and water do not exceed per year Another reply also noted that inconvenience during the installations of the services can be handled by writing special
