Introduced by David Dimbleby including:
The School That Came Apart

'Working in the classroom became less and less possible to maintain. Children scampered about the building, dashed in or out, or sat around endlessly playing games: monopoly, ludo, chess, draughts, snakes and ladders.' (Traditional Teacher)

This is how Mrs Dolly Walker described progressive education as introduced to the London junior school at which she worked. At William Tyndale School, well over two-thirds of the children were withdrawn before the bitter conflict between teachers, parents and managers finally brought the school to a halt.

Panorama presents the dramatic debate that emerged at the subsequent Public Enquiry with the aid of actors to give the evidence heard from each side. It shows the growing discussion between the traditionalists and the progressives in our schools at its most extreme.
