Abstract
This article probes the potential of emotional and experiential histories of education. London children’s school essays on their experiences in the First World War, their stories, their dreams and especially their favourite films, commissioned by C.W. Kimmins, Chief Inspector of Schools for the London County Council, are the main source base. Kimmins was primarily interested in children’s “attitude to life” and in adapting pedagogical methods accordingly. Through his own studies and through his participation in The Cinema Commission Inquiry (1917, 1925), changing pedagogical and psychological understandings of children are detailed. What about children themselves? What can such mediated sources tell us about children’s understandings of the new medium of the cinema, their outer and inner worlds, and their emotions, senses and experiences in wartime? They provide a base to ask novel questions of children’s experiences with education, and more profoundly, of their mediated experiences of the worlds around them.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
