A series of programmes, mainly about developments in Primary Education, for women who might enter or return to teaching

So far this series has covered a number of subject areas. But the general orientation is towards a Primary education in which children are actively participating in learning. In practice, this often means breaking down subject barriers, allowing opportunities for children to be carried on by the momentum of their own curiosity. But the 'unitary study' or 'theme work' approach is easily abused and calls for all the old arts of the teacher.

Sybil Marshall, Lecturer in Primary Education in the University of Sheffield points to some of the joys and pitfalls of integrated learning
