The incorporation of Plato into the current OCR Classical Civilisation A Level syllabus, as part of the Love and Relationships topic (LR) presents a challenge for the classroom teacher. While the specification makes study of Plato mandatory the content description in practice effectively relegates the topic to the side-lines. Having described this problem the article goes on to suggest how Plato's ideas can be taught within the framework of the existing specification in a pupil-friendly manner which is true to the spirit of Plato's own philosophical practice.

柏拉图与古典文明A Level

将柏拉图纳入当前的 OCR 古典文明 A Level 课程大纲，作为爱情与关系主题 (LR) 的一部分，对课堂教师提出了挑战。虽然规范强制要求对柏拉图的研究，但实践中的内容描述实际上将该主题置于次要地位。在描述了这个问题之后，文章继续建议如何在现有规范的框架内以学生友好的方式教授柏拉图的思想，这符合柏拉图自己的哲学实践的精神。
