Original Note:
This post inaccurately credits the Labour Party with the implementation of the Education Act 1944. It is known as the 'Butler Act' due to its development under Rab Butler, a Conservative Education Minister. The Act subsequently garnered support from Labour. https://www.parliament.uk/about/living-heritage/transformingsociety/livinglearning/school/overview/educationact1944/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Education_Act_1944 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/0046760860150104 https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/The_Making_of_the_1944_Education_Act/O34VAQAAIAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=0&bsq=education%20act%201944%20conservatives https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/For_God_and_Country/iQb5DAAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=education+act+1944+conservatives&printsec=frontcover https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/0046760950240305
