Miss Joyce Lang, Kidbrooke and 'The Great Comprehensives Debate': 1965-2005

摘要

In 1964-65 a teacher at London's Kidbrooke School gave a speech that appeared critical of the Labour government's nascent comprehensivization policy. A Times editorial based on her comments influenced the tone and content of the crucial parliamentary debate of January 1965, which continues to have implications for the organization of schools in Britain.
