Retired teachers who trained on these schemes retain vivid memories of the difficulties they encountered. Though many spoke warmly about their time in school, the failure to establish a partnership between classroom experience and higher education was the central flaw. As a result these experiments were abandoned by the Board of Education in the 1930s and were very soon forgotten.
