Originally published in 1971, this is a first-hand account of how
an old-established County Grammar School was transformed into a
completely new Upper School and Community College in the
Leicestershire system. From their experience the Headmaster and
staff have compiled the sort of book which they would have found
most helpful, giving a working account of their aims and
objectives, and the problems they encountered in this
reorganization. They discuss the failures and successes which they
met in areas such as curriculum planning, the school council, the
sixth form, the uniform debate, the less able children, and the
treatment of specialized subjects. They also look at the special
aspects of the institution, including the Design Centre and the
Community College. Stewart Mason, Director of Education for
Leicestershire, contributes a chapter on the Leicestershire Plan,
in the establishment of which he played a central part. Now
Bosworth Academy this is a fascinating look at the history of how
the school came to be.
