If you have a Scholar listed in the 1911 census then have a listen to the NA podcast 'Education in 1911'.

One thing I learnt....
Did you know that pupils were given special lessons in March 1911 about the importance of the census and how to complete the household schedule? This was so they could persuade their parents to comply. Absolutely fascinating.

Have a look at the other podcasts on offer....Lots of interesting stuff.
