Margaret Meek Spencer’s death at the age of 95 may give readers pause for thought. Most of us are engaged in the fields to which she contributed over seven decades: literacy, policy, children’s literature, teachers’ professional learning and their initial education. She resisted the term “training” in relation to teachers and in 1990 she wrote to one of her many former students to remind him of this when he became Chief Inspector at Ofsted, Margaret Meek Spencer at the London Institute of Education, 1988.

纪念玛格丽特·米克·斯宾塞（Margaret Meek Spencer），教师、评论家、研究员和作家：1925 年 1 月 14 日至 2020 年 5 月 4 日

玛格丽特·米克·斯宾塞 (Margaret Meek Spencer) 享年 95 岁，可能会让读者停下来思考。我们大多数人都从事她七十年来贡献的领域：扫盲、政策、儿童文学、教师的专业学习和他们的初始教育。她拒绝使用与教师相关的“培训”一词，并于 1990 年写信给她许多以前的学生之一，提醒他在 1988 年成为伦敦教育学院玛格丽特·米克·斯宾塞 Ofsted 首席督察时提醒他这一点。照片提供莎莉·格林希尔。
