Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: This photograph is of the members of the North Canterbury Education Board in January 1916, seated in the octagonal tower room of the Normal School on Cranmer Square, a building sadly demolished in 2012 due to quake damage. From August 1916 the Education Districts of South Canterbury, Grey and Westland were amalgamated with North Canterbury, and the resulting Canterbury Education Board moved to premises on Oxford Terrace, near Victoria Square.
The Education Act of 1877 introduced a national system of free, secular, compulsory education, and established the Department of Education and Education Boards around the country to direct and inspect schools. Previously education had been administered by the Provincial governments. In 1989 the Department of Education and the District Education Boards were disestablished, making way for a de-centralised administration of education under the Ministry of Education. The people in the photograph, from left to right, are: John Jamieson, Matthew Dalziel, William Alexander Banks, Hugh Boyd, Henry Christopher Lane (Secretary), Charles Henry Opie (Chairman), Thomas William Adams, W. Brock (Senior Inspector), George Rennie, Ernest Herbert Andrews, William Henry Collins.
