History

• New Zealand lacked technical training institutions even after free and compulsory education was established in 1877, and in response the Minister of Education Robert Stout tried in 1885 to compel universities and secondary schools to provide technical education.即使在 1877 年确立免费义务教育之后，新西兰仍缺乏技术培训机构；为此，教育部长罗伯特·斯托特于 1885 年试图强制大学与中学开办技术教育。
