A non-accredited History and Heritage course.

Course Description

This course will explore the different types of education available to people in England between the late fifteenth and the mid-seventeenth centuries, from grammar schools and universities to practical, on-the-job education. Who would learn to read and write? Where might you learn subjects like Maths? Of what use was a Latin education? We will examine not only what educational options were available during this period, and why, but also what it meant to be ‘educated’.
