This book shows why the study of schooling matters to the history
of twentieth-century Britain, integrating the history of education
within the wider concerns of modern social history. Drawing on a
rich array of archival and autobiographical sources, it captures in
vivid detail the individual moments that made up the minutiae of
classroom life. It focuses on elementary education in interwar
London, arguing that schools were grounded in their local
communities as lynchpins of social life and drivers of change.
Exploring crucial questions around identity and belonging, poverty
and aspiration, class and culture, behaviour and citizenship, it
provides vital context for twenty-first century debates about
education and society, showing how the same concerns were framed a
century ago. -- .
