A monthly programme reflecting the current archaeological scene
North-Eastern England and Early Christianity
For many years the Golden Age of Northumbria has been reflected mainly in literature, architecture, and the great relics of Saxon art. Now modern archaeological techniques and new research methods are adding to our understanding of the period and the people, the churches and the monasteries.
ROSEMARY CRAMP , who is now excavating at Jarrow discusses the new work with BRIAN BLAKE , who also introduces contributions from
RUPERT BRUCE-MITFORD and BRIAN HOPE-TAYLOR

An education for your child
What is there to choose between State and Private education? Size of classes, ratio of teachers to pupils-but have private schools ' something extra ' to offer? Why are primary schools and grammar schools well regarded by many parents and educationists while the secondary modern schools seem out of favour?
These are some of the questions LESLIE SMITH puts to:
A Professor of English
Language and Literature
A Principal of avTraining College
A County Chief Education Officer
A University Lecturer in Education and World Affairs
The headmaster of a boys' preparatory school and a writer on educational subjects
