Kaye, an Assistant Superintendent of the De- partment of Education and speaker at the Ontario Sec- ondary School Teachers' Fed- eration Worshop for teachers of Grade XIII of Districts 20 and 31, held in Oshawa on March 29th and, 30th. "Identification of the pupil's needs must be at the basis of the treatment of the student" said Mr. Kaye, and he point- ed out to-the teachers, "How, why, when the student learns must become our main con- cern; not did he learn what I taught him, but what did he learn and why?" Mr. Kaye went on to em- phasize that schools will have to accept the fact that stu- dents are at different start- ing points and that the stu- dent must progress accord- ing to his ability. The old philosophy of fitting the stu- dent into the slot has gone; now the school must fit the student. Mr. Kaye also point- ed out that the freedom be- ing given XIII teachers to adapt courses also implies the freedom not to adapt. On this matter, Mr. Kaye said, "Local - authoritiés are cer- nore everything from the De- partment of Education and start from scratch". He went] on to say, "Adaptation should come from careful study of the needs of the students not the whim of the: teacher." i The Grade XII; Workshop; sponsored by O.S.S.T.F. and the Ontario Department of!

Following the speech by Mr. Kaye, Mr. C. J. McCaf- fray, Chairman of the Ont- ario. Secondary Education Commission, was Chairman of the panel discussion on "The Philosophy and Opera- tion of the Grade XIII Year". Members of the panel were Mr. W. S. Elliott, Head of the English Department, Newmarket District High School; Mr. J. C. Loveland, Area Superintendent, De- partment of Education; Mr. J. C. Richardson, Superin- tendent of Secondary Schools Pickering; Mr. G. L. Roberts, Superintendent of Secondary Schools, Oshawa; Mr. J. W. Kippen, Assistant Superin- tendent of Secondary Schools, York Central; Dr. W. B. Etoddart, Dean, Seneca College. Mr. C. J. McCaffrey, Chair- man of the panel, opened the discussion by stating that the teacher should have the humility to realize that, in spite of his training and de- ication, he may get in the way of the student and be a barrier to his education. Mr. Elliott of Newmarket, the father of five children, stated that he-did not think the school should be student- centred entirely; students don't know what they want. He saw education as a log on one end of which is-the man who knows something and on the other end-.is the -man- who wants to know. Mr. Richardson of Picker- ing felt that many concepts which are being regarded as changes are concepts that we have had for some time now heing given new- terms.

Mr. Richardson em- phasized that the influence of this year must filter down to the other grades. Mr. Roberts of Oshawa thought that great steps had been made in twenty years in adapting to the needs of the students, but he felt that Mr. Kaye's ideal was one which, although desireable, could not be attained be- cause it would take a one- to-one pupil-teacher -ratio or ten-to-one with many ma- chines. Dr. Stoddart of Seneca College felt that with the new independence being given to students, teachers should point out some of the pitfalls along the way, that teachers from their own experience have some help to give the students. He quoted Voltaire to say, "No- thing is so fearsome as ig- norance in action." Mr. Loveland, Area Super- intendent, expressed a fear that teachers might be hard- er on Grade XIII students than the Department ever had been. He thought that many teachers felt that to have students, they had to have failures. Mr. Kippen of North York saw the external examina- tion as an entrance to uni- versity rather than a gradua- tion from secondary school and, therefore, was glad to see it go. However, he felt that teachers still have an obligation to make studer ready for university and th universities also have an o ligation to report back the high schools on progre of the students from a ps ticular school so that tl school would be able to a . just its standards. Mr. Ki - pen had encountered son difficulty in getting th support from the unive sities. "Dr. Stoddart agreed er phatically that the scho: had this right and suggest that the high schools ne give marks to the univers ties if the universities we not willing to do the san thing.
