Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine and analyze how the Brit ish policy of "Adaptation of Education" waS defined and applied to the Zambian situation in the period 1925 to 1964. In analyzing this period, the main focus is on the inability of this policy to bring about a proper synthesis between theory on paper and actual practice, and the problem of bringing about a proper synthesis between British and Zambian indigenous systems of education. I would like to acknowledge the assistance and cooperation I have received from my Thesis Director, Dr. Wasyl Shimoniak, and members of the Thesis Committee, Drs. Adrian Dupuis and David Gardinier. Further appreciation is extended to Dr. A. Tiberondwa and E. B. Rugumayo of the University of Zambia for stimulating my interest in this subject. I would also like to thank my mother, father, and uncle Lisulo for their continued support in my academic career. My thanks also go to the following members of my family who encouraged me to come and do my graduate studies at Marquette all the way from Zambia: Mwangala ng'omba, Matauka, Wamusheke, Kashembe,Namatama, Lisulo, Lubinda, Mwangelwa, Ngenda, Watae, Inonge, Inambao and Nikiwe. I would like to give special thanks to my roommate, Bose Somorin, and special friend, Ngalama, for their help and encouragement during this investigation, and to Carol Parkes for typing this thesis.
