“ In 1833, the government passed the Factory Act making two hours of education a day compulsory for children working in factories. The government also granted money to charities for schools for the first time.

In 1844, the Ragged Schools Union was set up to give schooling to very poor children.

The Public Schools Act (1868) reformed Britain's public schools, such as Eton and Harrow.

In 1870, Forster's Act set up state-funded board schools for primary education.
