Discover a pioneering approach to universal education from a historic early framework.
This volume outlines the British and Foreign School Society’s system for teaching reading, writing, arithmetic, and needle-work in elementary schools. It presents the origins, aims, and practical setup of a plan designed to educate large numbers of poor children with cost-effective methods, moral instruction, and a shared school culture. Readers will see how the program was structured to combine discipline, practical skills, and religious neutrality to welcome children of varied backgrounds.
The text explains the governance, funding, and outreach that supported the spread of the system, including how Teachers are trained, how schools are supplied, and how international interest is organized. It also details the class structure and the progressive steps used in needle-work and garment-related crafts, showing how skill-building is organized from simple paper-folding tasks to more complex sewing and finishing work. The publication discusses auxiliary societies, district divisions, and the practical administration that keeps schools running, from weekly meetings to annual reports and district inquiries. The result is a comprehensive snapshot of a large-scale effort to blend morality, literacy, and vocational training for the poor.Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book details the development and methodology of a visionary educational system that revolutionized how children from working-class families were taught to read, write, and reason at the start of the 19th century. It provides a unique insight into the history of education at that time and is indispensable reading for those interested in the development of pedagogical theory and practice. This is an abridgment of the original text, which was first published in 1812, and includes an introduction by the author giving the history of the system.
