1934: Backward Children

Not a term, we would use perhaps these days... although we perhaps have some alternative terms for the lower sets.
We've come a way from this at least...


There was some interesting curriculum making going on, with some ephemeral resources (rather than textbooks..) - good to see they ended with a test as well.
