Secondary education in England, often thought of as the best secondary education system in the world, has become yet another battleground for party politics. Those on the left favour the introduction of comprehensive schools, those on the right the retention of the grammar schools.
Man Alive, in the third and final programme on secondary education, discusses with the protagonists on both sides the merits and demerits of the two systems. And the possibility of any other kind in the future.

In Spain the ageing Franco still clings firmly to power-while making preparations for a smooth take-over by his successor.

This is the subject Europa looks at tonight - with the aid of the cameras of European television.
