In the early nineteenth century, the Lancasterian system of education was introduced to England, revolutionizing the way in which children were taught. The Scarborough Lancasterian Schools were among the first in the country to adopt this new approach, and became a model for other institutions to follow. In 'The History and Mystery of the Scarborough Lancasterian Schools', George Davies provides a fascinating account of these innovative schools and the many challenges they faced.
