The ideas for model schools by such reformers as James Stuart Mill and Jeremy Bentham are expounded in detail, together with the early attempts at working people's self-education, the struggle for leadership of the Mechanic's Institutes and Robert Owen's movement for communal education. Reform of the universities and grammar schools is shown as part of the changeover of political power from the landed aristocracy to the industrial middle class. The Chartists are seen striving for working-class education, and the power of the trade unions finally enters to carry through the 1870 Act. This was a century during which the division of England into \"two nations\" became most clearly marked, and the structure of education for the different classes was determined.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brian Simon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lawrence \u0026amp; Wishart\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1960\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 376\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.77d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780853153481\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lawrence \u0026 Wishart","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40223059542131,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":43.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_cd7a121e-566e-49a1-88a5-cf561d5652d0.jpg?v=1656681994","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/two-nations-and-the-educational-structure-1780-1870-9780853153481","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
