Reformatory Schools

Reformatory Schools: For The Children Of The Perishing And Dangerous Classes And For Juvenile Offenders (1851) is a book written by Mary Carpenter. The book presents an in-depth analysis of the reformatory school system in England during the mid-19th century, which aimed to provide education and rehabilitation to children from impoverished and criminal backgrounds. Carpenter provides a detailed account of the history and development of reformatory schools, their objectives, and the challenges they face in achieving their goals. She also discusses the various methods used in the reformatory school system, including discipline, education, and moral training. The book highlights the importance of providing a supportive and nurturing environment for children who have experienced trauma and hardship, and the need for a comprehensive approach to their rehabilitation. Carpenter's work is considered a significant contribution to the field of social reform and education, and it continues to be relevant today in discussions of juvenile justice and the rehabilitation of at-risk youth.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
