Interestingly the building was the sight of the 1910 Houndsditch murders by some Marxist extremists of a policeman . I was thrilled to bits when I found an obscure paperback book about this incident, which actually had plans of the houses which made up the Exchange buildings . I didn't know that the records of the school were available . How are they accessed? memhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05520080648914042943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067098918914268503.post-60022872631427856312017-08-27T11:46:41.039+10:002017-08-27T11:46:41.039+10:00bazza

I am assuming that even if schooling was compulsory from age 6, too many impoverished families depended on their young children working for money or stealing food. Nonetheless Prussia takes credit for starting compulsory education for its young children, then Austria and other countries taken over by Napoleon.<br /><br />Even now, some countries don't require their children do be educated in a proper school. Presumably home would do. And many countries still have lesser standards for girls.Helshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067098918914268503.post-5553010201556071102017-08-27T11:10:20.281+10:002017-08-27T11:10:20.281+10:00Andrew

But even in Australia, with our more equalised society, it took time for there to be education acts passed that established public school systems - free, compulsory and secular. The Victorian Education Act of 1872 was my pride and joy.Helshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067098918914268503.post-45266347953257340372017-08-27T11:03:56.876+10:002017-08-27T11:03:56.876+10:00bazza

Poverty in a rapidly industrialising nation was inevitable as the owners of wealth became wealthier and the workers were more exploited than ever. It took brave, communally-minded people to set up voluntary, alternative and non-government funded education systems for the bottom rungs of big city populations.Helshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067098918914268503.post-68408994065282645202017-08-27T00:17:43.682+10:002017-08-27T00:17:43.682+10:00PS: I took my Sunday morning walking group past th...PS: I took my Sunday morning walking group past the Westminster Jews Free School recently ("Jewish Fitzrovia and Soho").
