Soft cover. Zustand: New. 170 pages : illustrations (some colour) ; 25 cm. DOORS OF OPPORTUNITY is a study by historian, Barbara J. Smith, of the remarkable foundation in post-war Britain of one of the nation's teacher training colleges, which is now part of a modern university. It is the account of planning in 1942, in the grimmest time of war, for a solution to the foreseen serious shortage of teachers after hostilities. The government planners created a scheme of Emergency Teacher Training Colleges, which would recruit demobilised servicemen and servicewomen for specially designed courses of further education and training in schools. In a period of severe post-war austerity, encouraged by a doughty Principal working with a responsive local authority and a specially recruited lecturing staff, these ex-servicemen and women not only eased the teacher supply problem, but enlivened the local town and countryside with their enthusiastic presence and a wealth of practical activities. They have left a legacy for today's university students, who live and learn in their college premises.…

Barbara Maughan and Janet Ouston are researchers at The Institute of Psychiatry, University of London. Peter Mortimore is Director of Research and Statistics at the Inner London Education Authority. REVIEWS: "This important document should be taken seriously by all who are concerned with schooling . . . [It] confirms common sense: that approximately 15,000 hours spent in schools does matter. It says that schools are complex social institutions in which many factors merge to create an atmosphere that can influence pupil outcomes differentially, regardless of pupil background. It offers hope that schools can be improved no matter where they are located. And it offers provocative findings that beg for serious attention and further research investigation." - American Journal of Orthopsychiatry. "[Rutter's] findings, backed up with impressive statistics, fly in the face of a popular American theory that holds that if a student body has too many social disadvantages, there is not much that can be done for it educationally." - New York Times.
