Explain why Liberal Reforms were successful in appealing to the working class? From the emergence of new Liberalism after Gladstone, the concern for a healthier workforce and the strive to get more votes from the working class, the Liberals had to pass certain reforms that appealed to people like children, workers, sick and elderly. These reforms were overall very successful, as they were start of collectivism in our society and an end to the laissez faire attitude that the government once had. Liberals were very successful in achieving a significant degree of social change in Britain and paved the way for the establishment of a welfare state. The competition with other countries like America and Germany influenced our politicians to look deeper into the society and solve the social and economic issues that weakened our nation.
Effectively the act benefited the middle classes, who were now given an electoral voice in parliament, while the working classes were largely ignored, causing widespread anger and resentment for the act, and all those it benefited. The huge number of working classes wanted to be represented, and the act was yet more salt in the wound. If you were to gather up dates for the most widespread Chartist appreciation in Britain and put this on a graph alongside the economies peaks and troughs, the results would no doubt roughly mirror each other. For Chartism excelled during times of economic disturbance, particularly the late 30’s. This ran alongside the blossoming industrialisation of Britain, areas such as Stockport and Cheshire undergoing radical change were often the strongest supports of Chartism.
Not only are there added benefits academically, but the children in full-day kindergarten work better independently which builds good study habits for the future. Although Grace Chen provides may positive points she also gives detail about the negative points too. With the cost of full-day kindergarten being so expensive many schools do not offer this to families as an option. The second article describes how spending money in a child’s early years of education is cheaper then helping a child in later years. Nicholas Johnson examines all the pros and cons of full-day kindergartens.
As factories were invented, there were much more pollution compared to the past which brought many health problems to the people. Also the conditions of the factory caused the workers have health problems as well. Although there were a lot of positive impacts on the society during this period which made peoples’ lives easier, there were a lot of negative impacts, which, we face today as well. Now, I will tell you about the positive impacts the Industrial Revolution have left in the history. First of all, during the Industrial Revolution, there were a lot of positive effects on the society which made peoples’ lives easier and a better place to live.
But by 1900, school was compulsory and free for all children between the ages of 5 and 12. This was significant because it meant children could get a proper education but it would have also greatly improved the life of the poor children because it meant they wouldn’t have to work in factories, which usually had terrible conditions. Transport also improved during the Industrial Revolution. The construction of major railways began in 1830 and the network continued to expand throughout the Industrial Revolution. Britain was covered in a railway network by the end of the Industrial Revolution.
All payments went towards the king, this would've also made the Earls not feel powerful enough, especially Harold Godwin who was seen as the most powerful man in England, but theoretically he wasn’t. However the Economy was well governed because the trade increased, which encouraged both the growth of towns and foreign contacts, this demonstrates that England were still involved in trade, which was good for the economy. However the economy was not very well developed especially compared to the Byzantine Empire and Muslim world. Those economies were massive, especially when compared to England’s. Overall I believe that the economy for pre-Conquest England as well- governed to an extent as the King did have large control, he did control this well, but he may have been seen as too powerful where the government is concerned.
In my opinion, although for many of Attlee's year in charge there were remarks of triumph, I still believe that it can be question to how far these actually were successful. Source 6 shows us that the Labour Government passed mass amounts of new legislation, and then this resulted in many benefits for the people, and this was emphasised and touched on in Source 4. In contrast to this, Source 5 shows us that the triumphs can be questioned, with their being a sense that the needs of the people were not considered in the attempt of a reform programme. To start of, Source 6 gives of a sense that the things that were achieved by Attlee's government were 'remarkable'. This is because of the Source stating things such as 'Labour had many successes at this time such as the establishments of the NHS'.
History homework Use sources 13, 14 and 15 and your own knowledge Do you agree with the view that changes in schooling in the second half of the nineteen century significantly improved the role and opportunity of British women? Sources do agree with this statement to some extent as it some parts of the schooling improved during this time for example for the middle class with parents that wanted their daughters to have a good education. Source 13 is talking about a church school, this was a school that offered free education but taught it in a way that was religious. The problem with these schools was that there wasn’t enough place for everyone in these schools as the demand of schooling outweighed the supply also there was no official school board that told these schools what they should teach. The standard of education varied a lot depending on the schools.
We read the article, “We Should Cherish Our Children’s Freedom to Think” last week. The author Kie Ho uses his own experiences about his son’s thought and many examples to prove his point. He thinks that public education certainly is not perfect in America, but it is a great deal better than any other country. Children should be more liberal thinking, writing and imagining, rather than comply with the rules or follow the prescribed order of their parents and the execution of what adults say. Children’s creativity brings inspiration to adults, improves the act of education and makes the change to the world.
Eventually, the society complied, and instated that primary education be free for all. Evidently, once schooling became free for all, thus public schools arose, the literacy and overall production of the public increased to incredible levels. This presented the option for the upper class to send their children to a “better” education, which would not be amongst the lower class children.
