The regulations governing the Public School leaving, fiist form, and jumior and senior leaying exammations remain practically the same as in 1898. A circular to inspectors and High School Principals has just been issued by the Minister of Education. The most important announcement is that of the abolition of the primary examinâ€" ation,. No change will be made in the work required, but primary certificates will not be issued,. The change was not unexpected, as there has been a moveâ€" ment in favor of raising the standard required of teachers. All students entering the Normal College, irrespective of the academic course which they have taken, must take the subjects prescribed in regula tion 80, subject to the following condiâ€" tions :â€"Hol]ders of senior leaving cerâ€" tificates, granted on â€" departmental examinaiions, may omit Latin if they do not select the Greek option. Unâ€" successful candidates at previous examâ€" inations will be allowed to write at the final examination in May of any year without attendance at the Normal Colâ€" lege, and may confine themselves to the same subjects as taken previously, The abolition of the primary examâ€" ination will not affect the rights of holdâ€" ers of the primary standing obtained in 1898, or in a previons year to attend county Model Schools. If a scarcity of teachers should arise in any county after next year, in consequence of the higher requirements, provision will be made to meet the special needs of the locality. It should be understood that County Boards of Examiners are not allowed to award thirdâ€"class certificates to candidates who do not make the higher percentage required by regulaâ€" tion 63. _A district certificate shall not be granted under this section of the regulations, unless there is a scarcity of teachers, and unless the consent of the department has been first obtained. Renewals, granted undet regulation 87, are valid only in the county where issued,.
