community colleges and
compensatory education
There were two war waves of community schooling in Britain in the second
half of the twentieth century.
The first was an expansion in rural and suburban areas - the best known of
which being Stewart Mason's (1949) work in Leicestershire (see
community colleges).
Then, in the aftermath of the Plowden Report (1967), their appearance in
inner-city localities (see
community education as
compensation). Here the work of Eric Midwinter (1972; 1973) was
especially influential. (See also Halsey 1972)..
