Geschiedenis
Founded in 1891 by a small group of London schoolmasters, including Robert Blair, later Chief Education Officer of the London County Council, the Association, then known as the Association of Assistant Masters in Secondary Schools, quickly expanded to a nationwide membership and was incorporated in 1901. Its main objects were the promotion of professional status and standards for secondary school masters, including conditions of service, security of tenure, salaries and pensions, although it also took an interest in wider educational policy including the school curriculum and examinations. In 1978 it merged with the Association of Assistant Mistresses to form the Assistant Masters and Mistresses Association.
