- Director of the Naval Education Service
The Naval Education Service was a branch of the British Royal Navy which both provided education for naval personnel and ran schools for children of Royal Navy personnel.
History
It was originally known as the Department of Naval Education[1] of the Admiralty from 1914 until 1951 when it was renamed the Naval Education Service. It was under the control of the Office of the Second Sea Lord.[2] It was abolished in 1978. Some of its functions have now been taken over by Service Children's Education.
The Director of Education (later Adviser on Naval Education) was a civilian employed within the Admiralty who was responsible for providing advice on non-professional education from 1903 until 1936, when naval officers took over responsibility.[3]
