The changing curriculum of women's education 2. Continuing professional education 3. Learning from experience through the lifespan Each of the streams was convened in different ways, with some sessions bas.-:d around papers while others depended more on experiential material. In addition, the 'Market Place' provided a more informal space for participants to 'set up stall' if they had ideas or research topics that they wished to epiore at the conference. This variety is reflected in the papers presented in the proceedings, with some pieces concentrating on work in progress, rather than reseaich findings or theoretical papers. A post-conference was held, at which American visitors on the British/ North American exchange (funded by the Kellogg Foundation) presented papers. These have also been included in the priceedings. In order to reduce production costs, it was decider.,' that papers in camera- ready form should not be retyped. Therefore, there is some discrepancy in type-face and style in the proceedings. CONTINUING EDUCATION John Stoddart Sheffield City Polytechnic In preparaion for this conference, your secretary kindlysent me a copy of last year's Annua? Conference Proceedines. I was particularly interested to read the paper by Peter Jarvis which traced the development of the different forms of liberal adult educationand of vocational and professional education. These differing traditions are reflected in the attitude to continuing education at both the University and public sectors andemerge strongly from the respective UGC and NAB reports on continuing education. Currently the University sec*.or, with its main concentration on the 18 to 21year old undergraduate student, has continuing educationas somewhat of a peripheral activity - primarily the job of the extra mural department. On the other hand, the service tradition of the Local Authority sector has meant that part time and continuing professional education has been viewed as an integral part of the mission ofan institution - one of the best ways of demonstrating the institutions commitment to the local community and the local economy. For a variety of economic and demographic reasons the two traditions and thetwo sectors are coming closer together and continuing educationnas been placed firmly in the centre of the political and academic arena. I note that Alan Wellings made a plea at

Our admissions arrangements are coordinated with the Local Authority in Bristol. Bristol Cathedral Choir School is its own Admissions Authority and has its own criteria and Admissions Arrangements. Why has my child not been offered a place at Bristol Cathedral Choir School The reason why your child has not been offered a place at Bristol Cathedral Choir School is because there were more applications than places available.
