Description

Explore the lives of two influential educators in this Routledge Library Edition. This biography examines the history of Frances Mary Buss and Dorothea Beale, women who transformed female education in Britain. Frances Mary Buss began her teaching career at age fourteen and founded the North London Collegiate School at just twenty-three. This institution served as a model for Girls' High Schools across the country. Her contemporary and friend, Dorothea Beale, served as Principal of Cheltenham Ladies College for nearly fifty years. Under her leadership, the school grew from a local institution into a major college with a large teacher training department and over a thousand pupils. This work also details the founding of St. Hilda's College, Oxford, by Beale. It provides a look into the lives of these women who were driven by strong religious principles and immense energy to change the landscape of education for women.
