About this title

Synopsis

A new and practical plan for educating England’s laboring children

This edition presents the idea of a free school model designed to boost religious and moral instruction among the poor, with the aim of reducing crime and improving national prosperity.

Originating in early 19th-century Westminster, the work outlines a comprehensive system for educating male and female children admitted to a Free School. It emphasizes early religious and moral training, clear rules for discipline, and practical ways to prepare girls for domestic work and diligent service. The text argues that widespread, affordable education for the poor can transform communities and strengthen the country as a whole.

Readers will find concrete details on purpose, structure, and administration: the scope of lessons, attendance expectations, and the role of parents in supporting school discipline. The material also includes sample regulations, prayer forms, and guidance for expanding the system to reach more children.

How the proposed system blends religious instruction with practical learning for all ages.
Rules, examinations, and incentives designed to reward good behavior and progress.
Guidance for parents on attendance, conduct, and support of the school’s aims.
Appendices with governance details, forms of prayer, and plans for broader adoption.

Ideal for readers interested in the history of education reform, social policy, and moral instruction in early modern Britain.

The book title in focus: A New and Appropriate System of Education for the Labouring People.
