Abstract

This brief narrative seeks to capture the 12-year relationship between the author and V. LeRoy Nash, who at 94 has been the oldest death row prisoner in the United States since 1996. LeRoy's life includes many killings, and over 71 years in prison, before Johnson and Nash developed this unique father–son love relationship.

Abstract

The theory is often advanced that many graduates join the staffs of public schools, rather than State schools or technical colleges, because of the lure of above‐scale salaries. Money, it is said, is a decisive factor in the loss, to the State education system, of valuable teachers.

Abstract

I have the uneasy feeling when I go to some education conferences that I have been there before. Of course, I usually have. But I mean, been there before in the Dunn time‐theory sense.

Abstract

I was at a party the other day at which a dear old lady of 70 was lamenting the fall from grace of the young. A man of 55, a senior industrial technician, told me how he had been dismissed from his job, to make way for a younger man, and now faced a future that was totally bleak.

Abstract

Hardly a month seems to pass these days without the formation of some new pressure group in the educational world. The initials of new organizations, urging this, protesting against that, fall like rain upon the heads of the guilty and the innocent alike. If all the paper consumed by propagandists was donated to other, and some would say more useful, purposes I suspect we could probably equip all our secondary schoolchildren with crisply‐clean, new textbooks every year.

Abstract

When I last saw him A. S. Neill was lamenting the fact that student‐teachers to whom he talked were absorbed, like previous generations, with the purely technical problems of the classroom rather than the ‘love’ of children. As we sat sipping his Scotch in one of Summerhill's rather depressingly dilapidated rooms Neill's comments showed a certain sad preoccupation with thoughts of failure. I hastened to suggest that, far from failing, his ideas of freedom and understanding had made their mark and that, whether all teachers realized it or not, State primary schools owe a great deal of their success to Neillist concepts. But the revered old saint was not to be placated. Neill is very much an all‐or‐nothing man and any school which is less free than Summerhill is not, in his book, offering children what they need.

Abstract

It may have been partly the effects of the Indian summer in Cambridge, but not for some time have I seen Headmasters of the Incorporated Association of Preparatory Schools in such optimistic mood as they were at this year's annual conference.

Abstract

As an exercise in political technology this year's annual meeting of the Headmasters' Conference must win a prominent place among the historical events of the post‐war educational world. Its handling of the Public Schools Commission report disclosed a tactical ability fit to be admired by those Left‐wing pragmatists its members have so generously donated to West‐minster over the past 30 years.
