First published in 1974, The English sixth form presents a
comprehensive overview of the explicit characteristics and
implications of sixth-form courses in an institutional context and
in relationship to other organizations. The sixth form is an
institution devoted mainly to providing an academic education for
students who wish to remain in school beyond leaving age. Sixth
forms are not self-contained institutions; they consist of the top
class or classes in secondary schools receiving pupils from age of
11 or 12, or less frequently, 13 or 14. The book discusses crucial
themes like the curriculum of the sixth form; the attitudes of
sixth form teachers to the curriculum; the structure of the aims
and objectives; influences and constraints; and the role of the
universities. This book is an essential read for scholars and
researchers of secondary education, school education, and education
in general.
