iv. education and mental culture.
Matters at issue, except in certain cases where the Director-in-Chief has
the sole right of decision, are determined corporately: every member has
a vote.
Certain matters are decided finally and officially by the Supervisory
Board, others are passed on to the Ecclesiastical Department, in order
ultimately to be laid before the Government. The Ecclesiastical
Department has a section called the Bureau of Higher Education, which is
charged with the treatment of school matters.

Moreover, in every diocese the bishop, in the capacity of eforus,
exercises superintendence over the local secondary schools and particularly over
the religious instruction. If he has any complaint to make, he lodges
it with the Supervisory Board. He appoints an inspector, as his
representative, for each higher school outside the cathedral city, and one for
every realskola for boys. In every State coeducational school there is
a local board, whose president is nominated by the eforus. This board,
called samskolestyrelse, has besides the duties which devolve on the
inspector in other schools, other duties, chiefly of a financial nature.
In the capital a special board of directors (direktion) exercises the
functions of the eforus for the local secondary schools. It also manages
certain financial matters for these schools.
At the head of each school there is a headmaster (rektor), appointed by
Government at the proposal of the Supervisory Board, for a certain term,
usually five years at a time.
