Victorian school days
The problems of the early schools |
Most children did not go to school
at all at the start of Queen Victoria's reign. Wealthy
landowners would have their children taught at home, and their older boys
would be sent away to public school. |
By
the end of the Victorian period free schools
were provided and it became compulsory for all children to go to school.
These pages help to show what it was like to be at school in Victorian times. They include original entries from the official diaries or Log Books of local schools... |
