Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The foundation or expansion of the Brighthelmston [Brighton] charity school in the first years of the 18th century was probably instigated by the propaganda of the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge. The objectives of the subscribers can readily be inferred: to counter the growing strength of protestant dissent, and to mitigate the risk of social disorder due to the town's destitution. The initiative and financial support seem to have come almost entirely from outside the town, and doctrinal scruples were put aside in favour of educational excellence, in the employment of a prominent Quaker as schoolmaster for some 50 years. The ages and destination upon leaving of the boys at the school in 1702-5 are examined. | ||||||||
