The History of Education and Education System of Great Britain

In the 12th—14th centuries schools were attached to monasteries

and churches to educate clerics and scholars as well as monks, nuns

and priests. Education wasn’t controlled by the state.

There were chantry schools for boys from poor families where

beating was highly recommended, song schools and almonry schools for the sons of those whose relatives were connected with the religion and in these schools beating was not recommended. After these schools the young men knew alphabet, could sing religious songs and read in Latin and English.

At the same time preparatory and grammar fee-paying schools

for the sons of merchants existed. In preparatory schools boys were

taught reading and writing in Latin and English sufficient for entering a school. After graduating from grammar school a young man knew Latin Grammar, could translate from English into Latin and take part in debates in Latin.

Future monarchs, the sons of noblemen were educated at home.

They were taught military arts and court etiquette so the school-leavers had some military skills and skills in courty accomplishments.

During the 12th—14th centuries Oxford and Cambridge Universities were also founded.

In the 15th—16th centuries infant schools for the sons of merchants, skilled craftsmen and squires appeared.

The boys were taught reading, writing and catechism. They had to read and write in English. The teachers were very strict and beating was the best way to make children learn, they thought.

There were grammar and public schools for the sons of tradesmen and craftsmen where children were taught not only Latin and Divinity, but also Greek, Arithmetic and Music. So pupils

spoke and wrote in Latin, wrote poems and essays in Latin, they even knew some passages from the Bible by heart. At parochial schools the boys were taught Reading, Writing and a bit of Latin. These schools were for boys from poor families.

Special attention was paid to girls. Although girls did not attend

schools but in well-to-do families they were taught to read, write and do sums as it was considered that it was more important for a girl to know housewifery than Latin.

Future monarchs, the sons of noblemen were taught at home under

the supervision of a knight. Education was aimed at teaching the

military arts, court etiquette and social graces, reading and writing

in Latin, sports.

New schools were founded: Westminster School, St Paul’s School

and the Merchant Taylors’ public school in London, Rugby School in Yorkshire, Harrow School in Middlesex and others.

In the 17th century boys from poor families got their education at

parochial and charity schools. They were taught Reading, Writing,

Arithmetic and Religion. The sons of tradesmen and craftsmen got

classical education at grammar schools.

Boys from wealthy families were educated at public schools. They

were taught Latin, Greek, Sports and Religion.

There were schools for girls from well-to-do families. They were

taught Dancing, Music, Painting and Singing, Writing and Accounting and only some of those schools included Latin, Greek, Italian, French, Spanish, Hebrew, Philosophy.

In the 20th century new grammar schools, secondary modern

schools, secondary technical schools, comprehensive schools which

combined grammar and secondary modern schools under one roof

were founded. All children of school age (5—16) in state schools had to study English, Maths, Science, Technology, History, Geography, Music, Art, Physical Education and a foreign language.

Nowadays the law states that full time education is compulsory for

all children between the ages of 5 to 16. At different stages schooling is represented by nursery, primary and secondary schools. Further education is non-compulsory and can be taken at further education colleges or higher educational institutions.
