School for the Community: A Grammar School Reorganizes

Overview

Originally published in 1971, this is a first-hand account of how an old-established County Grammar School was transformed into a completely new Upper School and Community College in the Leicestershire system. From their experience the Headmaster and staff have compiled the sort of book which they would have found most helpful, giving a working account of their aims and objectives, and the problems they encountered in this reorganization. They discuss the failures and successes which they met in areas such as curriculum planning, the school council, the sixth form, the uniform debate, the less able children, and the treatment of specialized subjects. They also look at the special aspects of the institution, including the Design Centre and the Community College. Stewart Mason, Director of Education for Leicestershire, contributes a chapter on the Leicestershire Plan, in the establishment of which he played a central part. Now Bosworth Academy this is a fascinating look at the history of how the school came to be.
