By Carl Lawrence-Turner, John Dawton, Zain Rizvi.

During the Victorian times Queen Victoria, Edward the 7 th, And George the 5 th. The biggest achievement of the era was the conquest of India in 1750.

In the Victorian era only the wealthy could afford to send there children to public school. Most could not read or write. Trade unions saw education as a way of releasing people from poverty. This meant that poor children had to go to ragged schools. An education act was put in place in 1870, which provided that there should be a school within reach of every child. Soon after hundreds of schools were built in British villages and inner city neighbourhoods. Most education was aimed mainly at boys. However girls and women began to benefit as well. The year 1872 saw the girl’s public day schools company. In fact Cambridge university pioneered the fist two women’s colleges.

Ragged and charity schools were schools for the very poor children who's parents could not afford to send them to an upper class school. The purpose of education was so children could learn to read and write in a basic manner, also boys were taught different subjects to girls. In the early stages of education boys had a better education than girls did because boys were seen as people who would work and girls were seen as people that would stay at home and look after the family. However as time went by girls and boys were equal and had the same amount of education as boys.

There are a couple of novels of Dickens that relates to this topic. Such as: -Oliver Twist. -Nicholas Nickleby. -A Christmas Carol.
