Description: | Donald Hinds was born in Jamaica in 1934. He went to school there before moving to London.
Donald talks about the education system in Jamaica. It was very much like the system in Britain at that time, since Jamaica was still governed by Britain as part of the British Empire.
Secondary education was not compulsory in Britain or in Jamaica, and most children left at 14.
But Donald, keen to get a good education, stayed on until he was 16. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Migration and Citizenship Public Services | Temporal: | 1940-1949 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
