The work of the Geographical Association and its Presidents has spread around the world, and while creating the blog I have come across their influences.
This article is an interview from the Geography Teachers Association of Victoria (GTAV).
It is an interview with John Collins.
He describes a two year leave of absence in 1958/9 from a teaching job in Australia where he travelled to England and to the IoE under the mentorship of a teacher called John Rigg.
"fairly boring stuff" apparently the history of the Geographical Association :)
Following that, he had a remarkable career around the world.
He returns to discussing some other well known names - including Molly Long.
