Overview

Excerpt from Meliora, Vol. 11: A Quarterly Review of Social Science, in Its Ethical, Economical, Political, and Ameliorative Aspects This year's problem differs remarkably from last year's. Parliamentary reform was a comparatively simple matter. It contained but two elements, extension of the franchise and a re-arrangement of the constituencies. Educational reform is exceedingly complex. Educational reformers have to deter mine whether education shall be voluntary or compulsory, and if compulsory, whether it shall be enforced by the parish or by the State. Whether the schools shall be supported wholly, or in part, by local rates; whether they shall be denomina tional or secular; whether Government shall be responsible Only for primary schools, or shall be called upon to establish schools of a higher class 5 whether education at these higher schools shall be theoretical or practical. Closely related to these questions are those relating to the improvement of our chief public and grammar schools. How far Parliament will be able to master simultaneously all these branches of the one great subject is very doubtful.
