Everybodys Guide To The Education Act 1902 Being The Text Of The Act Together With An Introduction And Explanatory Notes Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from Everybody's Guide to the Education Act, 1902, Being the d104 of the Act, Together With an Introduction and Explanatory Notes An Act which changes the administration of the whole of the national system of education - primary, secondary, and technical - in England and Wales must, I think, be of interest to many persons. There is really only one way in which to make sure of the terms of an Act, and that is by seeing it for one's self. The Act itself, however, refers to so many other Acts, and assumes so much knowledge on the part of its readers of the existing law and practice, that to the ordinary layman it would prove an incomplete and somewhat perplexing source of information. The Act is reproduced in extenso, and under each section I have given such explanation or additional information as seemed necessary to make it intelligible to an ordinary reader. In the Introduction there will be found a brief summary of the existing system of education, followed by a digest of the provisions of the Act, the various items relating to specific subjects being collected together and supplemented by matter from other sources where necessary. I have endeavoured to compile a very full Index to the Act, which I hope will be of service to my readers for purposes of reference. Some important circulars issued by the Board of Education have been inserted in the Appendix. In preparing this work I deemed it wise to follow the plan of my "Parish Councils Guide," which, by the favour of the Public and the Press, reached its fifth edition within two years of its publication.
