Was it a law in the first place and not simply practice? I think that
in industry and commerce women resigned upon their marriage. Employers
expected them to do so and many would have sacked them had they not done
so. I suspect the practice generally started to change in the period
after the Second World War - and I would guess that local education
authorities changed their practice at much the same time.
