Scope and content
This series is comprised of School District Information forms distributed by the Teachers Bureau to rural school teachers in 1923 and 1928 to be filled out and returned to the Bureau. The forms are questionnaires for the purpose of obtaining information about teachers’ living conditions in rural school districts. There is no record of similar forms being sent in other years.
Not every rural and assisted school is represented in this collection. Of the 684 rural and assisted schools in BC for the year ending June 1923, there are forms for 651. For the year ending June 1928, there are forms for 711 of the 728 schools.
Many questionnaires were accompanied by photograph(s) of the school. A selection of these photographs were copied, assigned Archives codes (HP093555-HP093561; HP096198-HP0096200; HP096371; HP097214-HP097246; HP097257; HP097266; HP097270; HP099600; and HP099612), and assigned Visual Records accession number 198405-001. The originals were not physically moved, and remain attached or adjacent to the questionnaires. There are additional photographs in the files which were not copied.
