Description

Explore the historical development of the English preparatory school system with this Routledge Revival edition. Originally published in 1984, this text provides a comprehensive history of how these institutions shaped British education. The book examines the evolution of two distinct types of schools: those founded on private enterprise and those established through philanthropy. Readers will learn how these different origins merged to become complementary parts of the broader English Public School system. The narrative tracks the progression of prep and quasi-prep schools from their early beginnings in the eighteenth century through their significant growth during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This work is an essential resource for those studying the history of Great Britain, educational sociology, or the social structures of the English school system.
