EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1983, we see Professor Kyu Hwan Lee, a Korean academic, immersing himself in the study of British education. As part of his European fact-finding mission on secondary education systems, he has chosen Springfield School in Ormesby as a shining example of the British comprehensive system. The image captures an enlightening moment between Professor Lee and one of Springfield's pupils, Heather Kerr. The professor appears deeply engaged as he holds a conversation with Heather, undoubtedly impressed by her knowledge and enthusiasm for learning. What caught Professor Lee's attention at Springfield School was its exceptional remedial teaching program and small class sizes. These aspects stood out to him as key factors contributing to the school's success in providing quality education to its students. This photograph not only serves as a testament to the international interest in British educational practices but also highlights the significance of cross-cultural exchange in academia. It reminds us that even decades ago, educators like Professor Lee sought inspiration from schools around the world to enhance their own teaching methodologies. Preserved by Teesside Archive through Memory Lane Prints, this snapshot offers us a glimpse into an era when photography played an essential role in documenting educational research and fostering global connections among scholars.
