Report of the Classical Civilisation Committee to Council 2007

The Classical Civilisation Committee has continued to look at various issues connected with the teaching of Classical Civilisation. In the last year the main thrust has been to increase the size of the committee, with a number of new members, and also work with the Ancient History committee to review the new specifications from OCR and AQA. In addition to this, we have been involved in the battle to save Ancient History. The publicity committee has also continued its work, and members of the Classical Civilisation committee in this group are working on the leaflet for Classical Civilisation. This year saw the retirement of Tim Leary as secretary to the committee, and we would all like to thank him for his considerable work whilst in this post.
