Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book evaluates the development and efficacy of education in England, specifically examining the role of the Voluntary Principleâ"the idea that education should be provided and funded without government interference. The author argues that Voluntary education has a long and successful history in England, dating back to the 18th century. He examines statistical data, including the number of children attending school and the improvement in literacy rates, to demonstrate the effectiveness of the Voluntary Principle. The book also explores the role of Sunday schools, day schools, and other educational institutions in promoting literacy and improving the lives of the working class. Ultimately, this book presents a compelling case for the Voluntary Principle, arguing that it promotes self-reliance, active Christian benevolence, and educational innovation, all while protecting religious freedom.
