Originally published in 1986. This book's focus is on English
secondary schooling in the late 19th and 20th Centuries, during
which the definition of a general 'secondary' education was itself
negotiated and consolidated before the development of secondary
modern and then comprehensive schools. In each chapter, a
specialist contributor considers the changing ideology, shape and
status of one of the seven traditional academic subjects, namely
Classics, Modern Languages, English, History, Geography,
Mathematics and Science. These seven school subjects have dominated
the academic school curriculum since the nineteenth century and
continue to exert a powerful influence upon the contemporary school
curriculum today despite the emergence of various rivals and the
growing status of 'practical' subjects.
