No-one who worked in education in England in the 1960s and 70s could fail to be aware of the contribution of Caroline Benn as one of the leaders of the comprehensive education movement.
The Caroline Benn Society has been set up to promote research into the modern history of a common education so as to foster greater awareness of what we can learn and take forward from Caroline’s scholarship and social action to promote a more fair education system. The Society will concentrate on the varied forms of comprehensive education without losing sight of the democratic and communitarian implications of a system intended to develop everyone across the full age and ability range.
