Nursery & Junior School in depth

"Quaker education has always been coeducational and about the individual. In 1904 the Head of Sidcot wrote a science book, which you could use today.

Although written in Edwardian language, the book is very modern in its outlook, promoting creativity and challenging preconceived ideas."
