A study of boys’ and coeducational boarding schools in England and Wales
with Roger Bullock and Spencer Millham
From the dust-jacket:
Here is the first dispassionate consideration of boarding education as a whole – the different types of boarding with their aims, ‘styles’ and effects – actually based on research, and (an unusual combination) an account of five years of practical experiment, directly arising out of that research, at the progressive school at Dartington Hall.
…based on field work both extensive and intensive, the book discusses the objectives of residential education of all types, not just the public schools. It gives the first published evidence of the effects of boarding as opposed to day education… It also gives the first published evidence on the impact of boarding on the family.
