It contains the full texts of more than 600 important documents, including Reports, Official Papers and Acts of Parliament. The site is divided into three main sections which can be accessed using the buttons at the top or bottom of every page. (Clicking on the Education in England logo always brings you back to this page). My Education in England: a brief history was first published in June 1998 and was last revised in 2010. I'm now writing a new version - more detailed and updated to 2015 - which I hope to have ready later this year. You'll find more information about it here. The full texts of almost all the important reports on education in England and Wales since 1860 are here: Hadow, Plowden, Bullock, Warnock, Cockcroft, Swann and Elton etc. There are also around 250 Acts of Parliament, and various other government and HMI publications. Here are the thirty articles I have written since 1987. They include pieces on the history of primary education, pupil grouping policies, academies, school meals, faith schools, creationism, and religious education in Oxfordshire. There are also thirty book reviews and a handful of school policies from the 1990s.
