Abstract
In this edited transcript of the second round-table discussion convened by FORUM, four participants explore the nature of ‘progressive education’ as term, idea and tradition. Robin Alexander, Paula Ayliffe, Madeleine Holt and John Yandell consider whether, in the shadow of currently resurgent traditionalist approaches to pedagogy, curriculum and the purposes of education, ‘progressive education’ still has meaning and value. Melissa Benn chairs the discussion.
