Drawing on hitherto-unused sources this book represents a shift
in the historiography of British education. At the centre of the
investigation is Joseph Payne. He was one of the group of pioneers
who founded the College of Preceptors in 1846 and in 1873 he was
appointed to the first professorship of education in Britain,
established by the College of Preceptors. By that date Payne had
acquired a considerable reputation. He was a classroom practitioner
of rare skill, the founder of two of the most successful Victorian
private schools, the author of best-selling text-books, a scholar
of note despite his lack of formal education, and a leading member
of the College of Preceptors and such bodies as the Scholastic
Registration Association, the Girls Public Day School Trust, the
Women 's Education Union and the Social Science Association.
