Hadow (1931) Notes on the text
|
The Hadow Report (1931)
The Primary School
Notes on the text The full text of the report (including the Appendices) is online. The page numbers shown throughout are those of the original 1931 edition (not the 1952 reprint, which used different pagination). In the printed version, the 'Suggestions on the curriculum' follow Chapter 11 but don't have a chapter number of their own. I have called them Chapter 12. Since there aren't pages as such in this web version, footnotes have been collected together (and renumbered) at the end of each chapter. I've modernised the punctuation (so that, for example, " secondary " is shown as 'secondary' and Mr. W.H. Webbe C.B.E. appears as Mr WH Webbe CBE) and I've updated a handful of spellings (timetable instead of time-table, today instead of to-day etc). I've added explanations to a couple of obscure words and corrected a dozen or so misprints. Anything added by way of explanation is shown [in square brackets]. Every web page includes chapter links (as in the left hand column on this page) and there are links to the next and previous chapters at the bottom of each page. I have proof-read and spell-checked the text, but if you spot any errors I'd be grateful if you'd email me. Other than the above, what you see here is what appeared in the original print version of the report. For a summary of this report, see my article The Hadow Reports: an introduction. |
