First sentence: As a set of values, beliefs and professional ideals, held mainly by primary school teachers (i.e. as an educational ideology), progressivism has been in decline for around three decades, since its high point of influence, in England, immediately following the publication of the Plowden Report (Central Advisory Council, 1967).
