  • From Learning to Live to Circular 10/65 Gary Mcculloch
    1 British Labour Party education policy and comprehensive education: From Learning to Live to Circular 10/65 Gary McCulloch UCL Institute of Education, University College London, UK ABSTRACT Fifty years after the production of Circular 10/65, which confirmed comprehensive education as the national policy for secondary education in England and Wales, it is possible to trace the idea of comprehensive education from the 1940s to the 1960s, to understand the position of the Labour Party in its development, and to assess the nature of the contribution of Circular 10/65 itself to comprehensive education in Britain. There were strong connections between the 1944 Education Act and Circular 10/65. In particular, Michael Stewart, the Labour Party education policy review of 1957-1958, and the 1958 report Learning to Live that arose from this, played a key mediating role. Awareness of public opinion through the then novel device of market research and a determination to consolidate ambitious reforming ideals into a practical strategy for educational reform over the longer term formed part of the party’s revisionist approach under Hugh Gaitskell, and helped to provide the basis for Labour’s policy on comprehensive education when it returned to power in 1964. KEY WORDS comprehensive, secondary, politics, policy, Labour Party Email: [email protected] 2 British Labour Party education policy and comprehensive education: From Learning to Live to Circular 10/65 1. Introduction Circular 10/65, ‘The organisation of secondary education’, was produced by the Department of Education and Science (DES) in Britain on 12 July 1965, and was sent to all local education authorities (LEAs) and the governors of direct grant, voluntary aided and special agreement schools.1 It is a slight document, only eleven pages in length, but its appearance is deceptive.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Afterword: the Last Victorian?
    Afterword: The Last Victorian? Many of the themes set out in this book and outlined in the Foreword are still topical, discussed more indeed during the first years of the new millennium than they were in the mid-twentieth century. They even hit the headlines, as Michael himself sometimes does. I have described him throughout the book as Noel Annan did – very much a man of his own time, identifying and influencing the processes of change, planned and unplanned. As he contemplates his own life, however, Michael feels now that he would like to escape from his own time, not only into the future but into the past; and, somewhat surprisingly to me as a committed critical historian of Victorian Britain, he has come to regard himself less a man of his own time than the last Victorian. Born only fourteen years after Queen Victoria’s death, Michael was not drawn into the revolt against the Victorians associated, above all, with Lytton Strachey. Nor did he emerge from a background where it mattered much whether you shared in that revolt or sympathised with it. Dartington was scarcely a Victorian institution, however, less so, indeed, than Bethnal Green with its alleys and its fogs was a residually Victorian place. Michael can provide a variety of reasons for his self-judgement. First, he has a conscience, and so did the Victorians. Second, he dislikes ‘materialism’, and so did some of the most influential Victorians. Third, he is suspicious of the state, and so were most Victorians. Self- help and mutual aid went together.

  • From Orientalism to Cultural Capital Capital Cultural Cultural to to Orientalism Orientalism from From
    From Orientalism to Cultural Capital From Orientalism to Cultural Capital From Orientalism to Cultural Capital presents a fascinating account of the wave of Russophilia that pervaded British literary culture in The Myth of Russia in British Literature of the 1920s the early twentieth century. The authors bring a new approach to the study of this period, exploring the literary phenomenon through two theoretical models from the social sciences: Orientalism and the notion of ‘cultural capital’ associated with Pierre Bourdieu. Examining the responses of leading literary practitioners who had a significant impact on the institutional transmission of Russian culture, they reassess the mechanics of cultural dialogism, mediation and exchange, casting new light on British perceptions of modernism as a transcultural artistic movement and the ways in which the literary interaction with the myth of Russia shaped and intensified these cultural views. Olga Soboleva teaches Comparative Literature at the London School of Economics and Political Science. Her research interests are in nineteenth- and twentieth-century Russian and European culture. • Her recent publications include The Only Hope of the World: George Bernard Shaw and Russia (2012), The Silver Mask: Soboleva and Wrenn Harlequinade in the Symbolist Poetry of Blok and Belyi (2008) and articles on Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, Nabokov, Chekhov, Boris Akunin and Victor Pelevin. Angus Wrenn has taught Comparative Literature at the London School of Economics and Political Science since 1997. His most recent publications include The Only Hope of the World: George Bernard Shaw and Russia (2012), Henry James and the Second Empire (2009) and articles on the reception of Ford Madox Ford and Henry James in Europe.
