Out of School: A Year in the Country - History Around Us

on BBC Television

What sort of programmes does BBC Television provide for younger children at school? Series for primary schools include A Year in the Country and People of Many Lands, both designed to widen interests and horizons and to stimulate follow-up activity.

A series designed to encourage local and seasonal studies, not only in country but also in town schools.
In many parts of the country traces of the Roman occupation are still to be found, and the village church often contains historic relics from medieval times.
