SUBJECTS OF INSTRUCTION IN SCOTTISH SCHOOLS. The great subject which the Celtic Church had to teach was Christianity. Its mission teachers had, in the sixth century, to deal with fierce and barbarous peoples quite unprepared for the developed literature of Greece and Rome. Their own lives were their chief lesson books. The self-denial, and the patient labour of the pious monk was an education: the monastery, with its religious zeal and untiring energy methodically devoted to manual labour, writing, and study, was in every district a centre of moral stimulus and spiritual quickening. Moral and religious truth, and the idea of an organised society wider than the tribe, were gradually but surely instilled into the people. The organisation and labours of the Church prepared the way for civil unity and civil freedom. The lesson of the early Church was the transcendental one, "in the world, and yet not of it." In the Southern countries of Europe the Church had to struggle against paganism, and hold up the ascetic side of Christianity as the ideal against the sensuous culture of Greece which had penetrated the Roman world. The Church in early Scotland, on the other hand, had rude and fierce barbarians to convert, and it was by setting up the ideal of monastic asceticism, industrious toil, and pious contemplation that it secured for Christianity a permanent victory. Like the Greek state, it had a system of life for its members. The true education for the Church therefore, implied not the imparting of ideas likely to unfit the mind for the full acceptance of that system, but the moulding of the life of the community in accordance with its ascetic ideal. The ritual and observance of the Church's ordinances in the matter of fasts and...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Secondary Education in Scotland: An Account of Scottish Secondary Education From Early Times to the Education Act of 1908 The scope of this history extends considerably beyond the limits assigned by the title. As it is only within recent years that elementary, secondary, and University education in Scotland have been given clear definitions, and as the interaction of educational developments in different countries is much greater than a superficial inquiry would indicate, I have adverted freely to the history of elementary and University education, and, wherever it has seemed necessary or desirable, connected educational developments at home with corresponding developments abroad. But to avoid expanding the volume unduly I have excluded a considerable amount of available 'home' material - interesting and somewhat lighter reading, but not essential to the main purpose of the book - and have in general merely indicated parallelisms in other countries. Thus it seemed to me undesirable to do more than suggest the influence of the Hellenic movement in Germany in the eighteenth century on the educational developments in Scotland in the nineteenth, although there seems little doubt of its probability. In the hope that the book will be of use to the student of education as well as to the general reader, and in particular to the student-teacher, who should be familiar with the significant historical antecedents of the educational system of to-day, I have quoted or indicated authorities for statements or inferences of importance; but such works as Grant's History of the Burgh Schools of Scotland, with its multitude of facts, and Professor Edgar's exhaustive History of Early Scottish Education, are indispensable to the student of the particular subjects with which they deal.

Excerpt: ... little objection to send their children to schools belonging to denominations different from their own; the situation of the school and the merits of the teacher had weighed much more than religious differences. The country was all but unanimously agreed that Scotland was ripe for legislation on the lines of a compulsory National System such as would absorb the inadequate Parochial System and the unsatisfactory Voluntary System, and this was attained by the Education (Scotland) Act of 1872. CHAPTER X THE BURGH OR GRAMMAR SCHOOL 1600-1872 In considering the development of the grammar school from the end of the sixteenth century onwards, regard must be had to the general conditions of national life in Scotland during the same period. The seventeenth century was one of religious dissension and strife, which reacted most unfavourably upon education and literature. Where there was vigorous thinking it was almost wholly theological in its bent. The Revolution Settlement and the final adoption of the Presbyterian form of Church government gave the nation an opportunity of expressing itself in other ways. In the early years of the eighteenth century came the union with England and the reform of the Universities. While the Jacobite agitation was stirring the political world, the Scottish Universities were making advances in Philosophy, Science, and Medicine, and were soon to show that, if not in advance, they were at least abreast of their contemporaries. Meanwhile the country was progressing industrially and commercially. Wealth increased, manufactures developed, great cities arose. Towards the end of the century the spread of revolutionary principles brought into prominence the problems of social and political reform which were to attract so...

Download or read book A History of Catholic Education and Schooling in Scotland written by Stephen J. McKinney and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-05-23 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses the development of Catholic schooling in Scotland over the course of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Scholarship of this period tends to be dominated by discussions of the 1872 and 1918 Education (Scotland) Acts: while these crucial acts are certainly not neglected in this volume, the editors and contributors also examine the key figures and events that shaped Catholic education and Catholic schools in Scotland. Focusing on such diverse themes as lay female teachers and non-formal learning, this volume illuminates many under-researched and neglected aspects of Catholic schooling in Scotland. This wide-ranging edited collection will illuminate fresh historical insights that do not focus exclusively on Catholic schooling, but are also relevant to the wider Scottish educational community. It will appeal to students and scholars of Catholic schooling, schooling in Scotland, as well as Christian schooling more generally.
