Book Description
Excerpt from A Guide to the History of Education But England compares poorly in this respect with some of the neighbouring lands. Our school and college histories are numerous enough; but they too easily drop to the level of anecdote, personal or architectural, and too often remain silent on matters which would indicate advance, or the reverse, in educational theory or practice. In fact, much spade-work must be done before we can hope to possess a conspectus of what English schools have attempted or accomplished between the early medieval period and the present day. When that work is surveyed in the light of con temporary life, social, political, and economic, we shall be in a position to generalize about the English theory of education.
