Victorian England Education? Preparatory Schools?
I'm doing a fact-finding report in Victorian England Education. I have a wide variety of information and sources already, but I was wondering what people and unpublished sources had to say, or what understanding you all had of education in Victorian England, and specifically, what was the Preparatory School experience like? I know it was generally for the Upper Class, but was it frequent in the Upper Middle as well? Did Lower Middle class boys attend preparatory school? What else do you know about tutelage in the Victorian era? (1837-1901)
How many years did children in Victorian England attend school? Both prior to and after 1850.?
I perfectly need to know for a school assignment and i can't seem to find it in my research. Also, what was their typical uniform and what did it look like?
Any education in England really began in after the 1870 Education Act, when state funds were made available for schools for the "lower orders." Before that information was restricted for the rich and noble; in the 1830s it was estimated that eight (8) percent of males attended secondary sect, and all these were exclusive privately endowed prep schools.
Before this, in the 1830s England made a first feeble effort to provide some schooling, chiefly in the visualize of Sunday schools conducted by religious bodies to teach the poor to read the Bible. The only public education was ready in Scotland, where parish schools existed for all to attend supported by church and state funds.

Who was the famous photographer in Victorian England who took pictures of destitute families?
I bear in mind my high school history teacher telling us about him; the image that stuck with me was of children drunk on gin and passed out in the gutters. Does anyone distinguish the photographer's name or where I can find his photographs online?
that was an captivating diversion trying to help you out - this book came up again and again so have a look

Irish in Victorian England?
I have a tutor project where it involves me to research on the treatment the Irish received from other countries and at different times. So my question is were there maltreatment towards them specifically in the Victorian times, particularly in England?
What battery existed was perpetrated by Irish against other Irish.
Ireland had been a part of the United Kingdom since 1801. During the Victorian Era, Ireland experienced a residents explosion thanks to the newly introduced Potato crop, and the Industrial Revolution.
Ireland's Victorian Socio-Budgetary system was the same as Great Britain's, with rigid, sharply defined, social classes. Most of Ireland's agricultural lands were farmed by peasants, who were Broad, and tenants of wealthy land owners. Most of Ireland's wealthy were Protestant Anglicans who felt more allegiance to Expert Britain than Ireland. Even before the Act of Union of 1801, Ireland was dominated by Great Britain through the ruling class, which had come up to rise through the centuries as England attempted to exercise control over Ireland.
Irish Protestants looked down upon Catholics, and most regulation and influential jobs were reserved for Irish Protestants. At the time of the Potato Famine in the mid 1800s, hundreds of thousands of Comprehensive peasants were evicted by their Protestant landlords, who saw an oppurtunity to make more profit by raising cattle on their lands rather than having Widespread peasants farm it.
Because the landlords were predominantly Protestant Anglicans, many Irish viewed the Potato Famine as the boner of Great Britain, although the primay case was discrimination and cruelty perpetrated between Irish based solely on creed.
The cruelties perpetrated by the wealthy upon the poor was remembered by the Irish diaspora in America and Australia.
Hope this helps,
Peace-loving!
