This is the definitive history of the HMI, and encompasses a commentary on the management and development of education in the post war era.
Review:
This account of the post-war role of Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Schools effortlessly conveys a mass of information in an elegant style, as befits the work of a man who edited the TES for 20 years. This is not just about inspection. It is a perceptive account of educational policy since the Second World War and the place of HMI in the policy-making process. (TES 2001-03-01)
I recommend this thoroughly readable text to historians, academics in the field of education policy analysis and students wishing to explore the complex inter-weaving of governance and accountability exemplified through school inspection. (Welsh Journal of Education 2002-10-01)
