Comprehensives

Abstract

Part of Bristol's quiet revolution in the educational field are the two comprehensive schools. Greenway boys' and Pen Park girls'. Originally secondary modern schools, they became comprehensive in the 1950's — somewhat before the government came round to their present way of thinking. Both the schools are in Southmead, ‘reputedly a bad neighbourhood’ said Miss MacBean, head of Pen Park.
