The man who is universally credited with the development of Jersey's post-Second World War education system from one which provided few opportunities for children over the age of 11 into something of which the island could be justly proud was Deputy, later Senator John Le Marquand. In the 1990s he wrote three lengthy articles for the Annual Bulletin of La Société Jersiaise in which he traced the development of education in the island from 1870 to 1970. They are reproduced in full in Jerripedia.
