TL;DR: The papers in this volume show the origin and development of Bernstein's theoretical studies into the relationships between social class, patterns of language use and the primary socialization of the child as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: The papers in this volume show the origin and development of Bernstein's theoretical studies into the relationships between social class, patterns of language use and the primary socialization of the child. 'Bernstein's hypothesis will require [teachers] to look afresh not only at their pupils' language but at how they teach and how their pupils learn.' Douglas Barnes, Times Educational Supplement 'His honesty is such that it illuminates several aspects of what it is to be a genius.' Josephine Klein, British Journal of Educational Studies

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: This article made a simple survey among experienced teachers attending one-year courses at the University of London Institute of Education and found that most were British teachers seconded on salary, i.e. paid for a year.
Abstract: paid for a year. They will have had five years' experience as a minimum, but many of them will have had much more than that, and will be persons of considerable standing, holding responsible posts, for whom the word 'student' may seem rather misleading. In addition to these there are a growing number of older people who in maturity decide to take initial training as a teacher, or to follow a course to a degree. These may be married women whose families are growing up and who now feel themselves able to start professional work, or they may be men or women from industry, commerce, the services, etc., who are attracted to teaching less by the salaries offered (which may be lower than those they already receive) than by the desire to do a worthwhile job. In so far as they are inexperienced tiros the worries and anxieties of reaching an acceptable standard will be similar to those of young students, and so many of the student stresses will apply, with additional anxieties since they have more at stake and are likely to feel more responsible for their choice than young students sometimes do. Their dilemma, of being neither flesh, fowl, nor good red herring, has been well described by Gibson and Pococke (1968). In so far as they are older people they will share many of the characteristics of the first group I mentioned, the mature teachers on secondment, whose strains will be discussed in this article. I began by making a simple survey among experienced teachers attending one-year courses at the University of London Institute of Education. A few came from other countries, but most were British teachers seconded on salary. The numbers are small, but the answers should be reasonably representative of a wide field of studies covering child development, health education, handicapped children, etc. About half were my own students. They were told the purpose of the enquiry and invited to write down the main sources of strain which
