The Secondary Mod

Dick Stroud

Education / Secondary

This is the story of secondary modern schools based on facts - not prejudice.

It is an alternative to the popular narrative that these schools were a scar on the country’s educational history.' The Secondary Mod' is a journey – perhaps more a voyage of discovery. Along the way you will discover that the accepted stories about the tripartite system and comprehensive schools are a simplistic distortion of the truth. Worse still, the mistakes the education establishment made in the past still determine how children are educated today.

Researched using the National Archives, this book explores the evolution of secondary education in England and Wales from the end of WWI to the early 2000s. It’s a tale of bureaucratic reports, well-meaning ideas badly implemented and the harsh realities of life after WWII. What we learn enables us to answer the question ‘were secondary moderns a monstrous mistake or much maligned?’ You may be surprised.
