Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the history of education from the 16th century and provides a detailed overview of the educational system in the Netherlands in the 1800s. The author focuses on the development of elementary education, which was revolutionized by a group of philanthropists seeking to improve literacy rates among the poor. They established schools where children could learn basic reading, writing, and arithmetic. As the century progressed, the government recognized the importance of education and implemented reforms, which led to the creation of more schools and the expansion of the curriculum. The book highlights the significant role of private citizens and organizations in shaping the educational landscape of the Netherlands. These reformers believed that education was essential for social progress and worked tirelessly to make it accessible to all children. The methods they developed to teach literacy and other subjects had a lasting influence on educational practices in the country. Ultimately, this book offers a valuable historical account of the development of education in the Netherlands and illuminates the ongoing efforts to improve educational opportunities for all citizens.
