Description

First Published in 1998. This is Volume XI of twenty-eight in the Sociology of Education series. This study initially finished in 1943, is in response to an increasing interest in education generally and in the post-war development and layout of English rural life particularly. The author surveys the educational provision in the rural areas of England, looking at village schools, curriculum, in both primary and secondary schools, the training of teachers and conclusions on its post-war future.

Description

Drawing on the great wealth of knowledge and experience of educational practitioners and theorists, these volumes explore the very important relationship between education and society. Including classic work by David Hargreaves, these books became standard texts for actual and intending teachers. Drawing upon comparative material from Israel, France and Germany, titles in this set also discuss the key questions of girls' and special needs education, and the psychology of education.
