In 1986 the Conservative government announced that it was to set up a pilot network of twenty new secondary schools to be called City Technology Colleges. These were to be a new type of school, funded jointly by industrial sponsors and the Department of Education and Science, which would select children suited to a technological curriculum. The colleges were perceived by some as an attack on local education authorities and the system of comprehensive education. This book is based on research carried out at the first CTC which opened in Solihull in September 1988. It examines how the college has developed in terms of staff, students, selection procedures, curriculum, facilities, teaching methods and ethos, and describes its relations with the Local Education Authority and other schools, and its place in the wider educational context.

The second volume of the new edition of this major reference work. Walford's Guide has been an essential component of the standard reference collection for over 30 years, establishing itself as an invaluable tool in the building up and revision of reference library stock, for general and special library enquiry work, for use as an aid in subject bibliography exams and for the research worker, in the initial stages of research. The fifth edition of Volume 2 covers social and historical sciences, philosophy and religion. Subjects highlighted include: minorities, industrial relations, women and society, social services and welfare, the European Economic Community, small businesses, Parliament, education, aspects of less-developed countries, gazetteers and guidebooks, and primary historical sources. "Hidden" bibliographies appearing in periodicals or as parts of books are given a place, as are announcements of forthcoming works or volumes; reprints of older reference material are also well represented. In addition to British prices, French, German and US prices and distributors and ISBNs are cited.
