Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book by a prominent figure in the Wesleyan Church provides an illuminating analysis of the fundamental issues facing the educational system of Victorian England. The crux of the matter, the author states, is the secularist bid to wrest control of religious teacher training colleges. At stake was the very nature of British education itselfâ"one that was predominantly Christian in character yet adaptable to the times. The author argues that the success of secularists would be disastrous for the nation, resulting in a breed of teachers lacking in moral grounding and unable to effectively fulfill their role in shaping the minds of young people. The author offers a passionate yet reasoned defense of the teacher training college system as it stands, buttressed by detailed arguments regarding the fundamental differences between day schools and boarding colleges such as those in dispute. This book is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of education in Britain and the continuing relevance of religious faith in the development of young minds.
