Eight programmes for teachers and parents on the changing scene in secondary schools
Introduced by DR. F. HILLIARD
4: Teaching in the Flexible School
There has been a great deal of discussion amongst educationists and head teachers about how to make the traditional school organisation more flexible. How can * streaming ' of children be abolished? How can the old divisions between subjects like History and Geography, Science and Maths be broken down? But the most vital question for most serving teachers is generally left unasked and unanswered. What is it like to be a teacher who is trained and practised in traditional school attitudes. and who is suddenly faced with a revolution in classroom practice imposed from above?
An ex-grammar school teacher who became head of the geography department of a ' flexible ' comprehensive school, describes how he came successfully to modify his entire teaching methods

A series of eight broadcasts
Introduced by DR. ANNE Ross
4: Pagan Celtic Religion
A far-flung people, the Celts encountered a variety of cultural influences. There is nevertheless a sufficient unity in their cult practices and imagery to allow us to speak of pagan Celtic religion, and to detect an underlying universality in their beliefs. The Celts evolved a splendid art. Using the sacred water birds and sun symbols of Bronze Age Europe, together with Persian and Scythian animal art and classical plant forms, they turned them into a unique and pleasing style. This was to develop a distinctive quality in the British Isles, and to emerge again after the collapse of the Roman Empire. to become the familiar art of early Christian metalwork and manuscript.

Six programmes on the varieties of a ' vogue idea ' 2: Commitment as a therapeutic function by A DOCTOR
The speaker's viewpoint is that of an analytical psychiatrist. Commitment-or commitedness-is a crucial stage in the patient's' recovery of ' wholeness.' How commitment ' works ' in this way is less difficult to describe than to explain.
