Video Description
Robert Reid and Patrick Gregory examine the conditions within schools in Shropshire and Derbyshire. What is the state of our schools? How many schools has Britain built since the war, and how many old buildings still remain in use? Are the old buildings fit for purpose? Is the rural child given the same opportunities as the child in the city? How much will it cost to modernise our schools? Clip taken from Special Enquiry: Schools For Britain, originally broadcast on BBC Television, 7 September, 1955. You have now entered the BBC Archive, a time machine that will transport you back to the golden age of TV to educate, entertain and enlighten you with classic clips from the BBC vaults.
