  • 12Th February 2021
    DARLEY AND SUMMERBRIDGE FEDERATION Friday 12th February 2021 Well Done Ava! Ava has been very busy learning about Asia over the last few days and has created a fabulous ‘Wall of China’ - well done - we all think it’s brilliant! Media Coverage As you will be aware, media coverage on the state of children’s mental health and well-being and the concerns regarding children ‘missing out and falling behind with their education’ feature heavily in daily news. This inexorably adds to the tensions and anxieties of parents and teachers alike, never mind the children. Of course, we are concerned about their mental health, yet the media and politicians piling on the pressure saying that they are not going to get to the expected standard this year and that a ‘whole generation will suffer’ is simply piling on extra pressure in my view. The issue I foresee is that children are being measured against the standards that they would be expected to achieve if everything was normal; but we are not in normal times. In our federation we will measure our children’s performance, the standards they achieve and the curriculum they cover and judge them on what they have managed to do during lockdown, not measure them against what they haven’t done. There are many things that we cannot change regarding this pandemic, but the one thing we could change is to reduce the national expectation of what children should be able to do at the end of it all. Our focus should be on getting our children back to school so they can be happy again, not so they can get back to school only to work twice as hard as ever before.

  • The Consensus View on Camping and Tramping Fiction Is That It First
    Camping and Tramping, Swallows and Amazons: Interwar Children’s Fiction and the Search for England Hazel Sheeky A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of PhD School of English Literature, Language and Linguistics Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences Newcastle University May 2012 Abstract For many in Britain, the interwar period was a time of significant social, political and cultural anxiety. In the aftermath of the First World War, with British imperial power apparently waning, and with the politics of class becoming increasingly pressing, many came to perceive that traditional notions of British, and particularly English, identity were under challenge. The interwar years saw many cultural responses to the concerns these perceived challenges raised, as seen in H. V. Morton’s In Search of England (1927) and J. B. Priestley’s English Journey (1934). The sense of socio-cultural crisis was also registered in children’s literature. This thesis will examine one significant and under-researched aspect of the responses to the cultural anxieties of the inter-war years: the ‘camping and tramping’ novel. The term ‘camping and tramping’ refers to a sub-genre of children’s adventure stories that emerged in the 1930s. These novels focused on the holiday leisure activities – generally sailing, camping and hiking - of largely middle-class children in the British (and most often English) countryside. Little known beyond Arthur Ransome’s ‘Swallows and Amazons’ novels (1930-1947), this thesis undertakes a full survey of camping and tramping fiction, developing for the first time a taxonomy of this sub-genre (chapter one).
