1. The Advisory Council on Educational Planning,(ACEP) now called the Educational Development Council, is an independent body. Nine of its members,(one Maori) from various walks of life, are appointed by the Minister of Education. Four ex-officio members represent the Department of Education, the University Grants Committee, the Vocational Training Council and the Treasury. Since 1972 until their report in 1974, the Council acted as steering committee for the Education Priorities Conference (later called the Educational Development Conference) which entailed the provision of three working parties making reports in three areas of education (Aims and Objectives, Improving Learning and Teaching and Organization and Administration of Education) and the provision of booklets for public discussions. Their final report resulted from the working parties’ reports and the recommendations from the public. It was estimated that 8000 submissions from 4000 study groups representing approximately 60,000 people were made. Cited in Talkback, Report of Public Discussion EDC, 1974.
