17 fev 1870 ano - 1870 Education Act

Descrição:

The 1870 Education Act is the very first piece of legislation to deal specifically with the provision of education in Britain. Drafted by William Edward Forster, it demonstrated a commitment to provision on a national scale (“The 1870").

The Act established a system of "school boards" to build and manage schools in areas where they were needed. These schools provided non-denominational religious teaching (“The 1870").

However, the issue of making education compulsory for children was not settled by this Act (“The 1870").
