Abstract
IN her presidential address to Section L (Education), Miss Lynda Grier discusses “The Evolution of Secondary Education in Britain”. The most notable features in the evolution of secondary education in Britain have been, she said, the growth and constant power of the classical tradition, and its decay; the growth of democracy, including the growth of the woman's movement; the coming of science with a new conception of humanism in education, and the interest in technical education.
