La 4e de couv. indique : "Do you wilfully sacrifice bright children for political principles if you send them to a comprehensive school? This is one of the most emotive topics in the discussion about comprehensive education, and, as today's clever children will be key members of tomorrow's society, the issue is important to more than just the families involved. But it is the parents most of all who need to know the facts -about mixed-ability teaching, about the minimum size for a comprehensive with a good sixth form, about the fun of exploration versus the slog of disciplined work, about provision for science and language teaching. The education correspondent of the Observer answers these questions in this sane, well-balanced assessment of comprehensive and selective school methods. She is sensitive both to the dilemma that faces parents and as to the problems met by teachers who strive to fulfil the varied needs of their pupils". Read less
