Eight programmes for teachers and parents on the changing scene in secondary schools
Introduced by DR. F. HILLIARD
3: The Flexible School
Ask an average teacher to describe a secondary school. He will probably paint this picture. The children enter at eleven and 'go up ' together yearly. The bright ones go into ' A ' forms, the less bright ' B ' forms, or ' C ' forms and downwards in descending order of stupidity. The day is split into 'periods,' labelled as ' Maths' or 'English' or Games.' There are also ' A ' and ' C ' stream teachers, First Year and Sixth Form teachers. Science and History teachers. There is a place for everything and everyone is in their place. Very few teachers today would recommend all parts of this traditional organisation. Some teachers believe that the whole stratified, authoritarian structure is hostile to the educational needs of our children.
ALBERT ROWE and PETER MAUGER two headmasters, discuss how they have developed new flexible methods of school organisation
