The Report of the Consultative Committee of the Board of Education on Secondary Education with Special Reference to Grammar Schools and Technical High Schools (1938) dealt with their reorganisation and interrelation.
Basing its findings on the psychological evidence then available, the Committee stated that the tripartite division (grammar, technical and modern schools) corresponded to pupils’ abilities and aptitudes and that expansion should take place on that basis. The multilateral school was not favoured. (See also Norwood Report)
