Abstract

The view which I shall present is of necessity a personal and a pragmatic one, based largely on English experience, for I am by profession a practising teacher, a research physicist, and Head of a Department in a College of Advanced Technology. I presume that those who have organized this Conference and who so kindly invited me to present this paper must have wanted such a view, for otherwise they should have invited a comparative educationist instead. They have further given me a title of extreme elasticity, which in one way or another covers the whole of education, now and in the future.
