Not much happened during the war years. There were several changes during the 1950s. I can only tell you what I know from my own experience. I left school aged 15 in 1953.  I was in a selective Central School and to enter I had to pass an 11 plus examination.  Some of my friends did a further examination to go on to either a Technical School to specialise in technical subjects or a Grammar School to specialise in languages and literature. Many of my friends stayed on at school to do the General Certificate of Education that was then being introduced into schools in preparation for a wider opportunity for children to enter higher education.  I expect that you should be able to find more information on the Internet especially on the Department of Education and Science web site.  I do not know the address but if you type in the words in your search engine it should come up with options.

If you want to know more information, you can find great articles about both wars on wikipedia. I have put links to the articles themselves. Be sure to click a few of the links in each section because the different parts of the wars are on different pages.\n\nBoth wars were massive scale, so there are pages focused on different parts and who was involved.\n\nHope this helps you out!

There are several.  The main theme is the struggle between freedom and slavery.  \n\nThese links should help.  Good luck with your project.

That is a huge question...It can be said to lead all the way back to the Treaty of Versailles ending WWI. \n\nTry this. It's concise. http://ehistory.osu.edu/wwii/timeline.cfm

You've got a ton of stuff happening during the first half of the century.  Everything involving both world wars, the first flight, the Bolshevik Revolution, the San Fransisco Earthquake, the stock market crash, the depression on both sides of the Atlantic, lots of stuff.\n\nWhat are you interested in?  It helps a lot if the subject is interesting to you.  Do you want something military, cultural, political, technological, scientific?

The Allies in WWI were almost the same Allies in WWII. Here's the Wikipedia entry on the matter:\n\nWorld War I, also known as the First World War, and (before 1939) the Great War, the War of the Nations, and the War to End All Wars, was a world conflict lasting from August 1914 to the final Armistice (cessation of hostilities) on November 11, 1918.The Allied Powers (led by Britain, France, and, later, the United States) defeated the Central Powers (led by Germany, Austria and the Ottoman Empire), and led to the collapse of four empires and a radical change in the map of Europe.

This sounds too much like someone's homework!\n\nThe period is far to wide to narrow down any of the categories you want info in.  Perhaps you should actually look it up in some books - you know, actually do some research!
