Description
Based on the records of the Admiralty Schools at Greenwich, this study explores both the achievements and difficulties of mid-nineteenth century English schools. With industrialization and rapid urban growth in the nineteenth century, education was forced on to the political agenda and new ideas about teaching methods, curriculum and the physical and moral care of children emerged.
