Taking the example of women in education as its focus, this text
examines the work, attitudes, actions and philosophies of women who
played a part in policy-making and administration in education in
England over two centuries, looking at women engaged at every level
from the local school to the state. It traces women's involvement
in the establishment and management of schools and teacher
training; the foundation of the school boards; women's
representation on educational commissions, and their rising
professional profile in such roles as school inspector or minister
of education. These activities highlight vital questions of gender,
class, power and authority, and illuminate the increasingly diverse
and prominent spectrum of political activity in which women have
participated. The book represents essential reading for anybody
with an interest in gender studies or the social and political
history of England in the 19th and 20th centuries.
