Notes
He came up to Balliol in 1900, the son of an Oxford tutor. Academically gifted, he spent a year as a tutor himself before going to work for the Education office, first as an examiner and then as a Private Secretary, drafting education reform. He was so valuable in this role it was not until early 1916 he was allowed to enlist and he was even recalled from the front to do education work before he was killed.
