"Originally published 1971, this volume unravels the complicated history of the religious question in British education. The background of the key Acts of Parliament which established the ""dual"" system – of Church and Local Authority school – is examined. The changing policies of different religious groupings are analyzed, and their outcome in legislation brought out."
