Teaching Britain

"Teaching Britain" by Christopher Bischof, published by Oxford University Press in 2019, delves into the profound insights that 19th-century teachers held about the lives of the poor and working class both locally and globally. Across its 240 pages, this hardback edition uncovers how these educators harnessed their understanding to shape emerging models of professionalism, transform attitudes toward poverty and social mobility, and rethink ideas of race and empire. Bischof's exploration invites readers to consider the significant impact of educational practices on society and the evolving role of the state in addressing social issues. This essential read is perfect for educators, historians, and anyone interested in the intersection of education, social justice, and history in Britain. Discover how the legacy of these educators continues to influence our world today. Don't miss your chance to own this insightful work!
