This article seeks to establish connections between histories of education and media by examining long-term institutional and structural factors. In order to establish a role for broadcasting in schools, the BBC formed a relationship with the educational world through advisory machinery called the Central Council for School Broadcasting (CCSB), later reconstituted as the School Broadcasting Council (SBC). In the key period of school broadcasting’s development, between 1935 and 1971, the CCSB/SBC was unable to forge a strong relationship with the educational world. Internally, the BBC assumed control of school broadcasting at the expense of the CCSB/SBC. Developments in the early 1960s raised the possibility of fundamental reform. However this was prevented by factors including government policy on both school curricula and broadcasting, and indifference on the part of educationists. This article is largely based on unpublished archive documents.

本文旨在通过考察长期的制度和结构因素，建立教育史与媒体之间的联系。为了在学校广播中确立角色，BBC 通过称为学校广播中央委员会 (CCSB) 的咨询机构与教育界建立了关系，该委员会后来改组为学校广播委员会 (SBC)。在学校广播发展的关键时期，即 1935 年至 1971 年间，CCSB/SBC 未能与教育界建立牢固的关系。在内部，BBC 以 CCSB/SBC 为代价接管了学校广播。1960 年代初期的事态发展提出了根本性改革的可能性。然而，这被政府关于学校课程和广播的政策等因素所阻止，和教育家的冷漠。本文主要基于未发表的档案文件。
