NOTES.—The Age has been taken as on March 1st, 1926, and the Teaching Service up to July 31st, 1925. Service rendered before the age of 21 years has not been taken into account.

No teaching Service has been registered in the case of 22 of the Teachers included in the return because either they are registered provisionally or did not apply to have their Service registered. These Teachers have been disregarded in calculating the Average length of Teaching Service.
