Description: It is the first major study of the struggle to secure a fairer educational deal for girls and women in Victorian and Edwardian Wales. The author examines the growth of both secondary and higher education for women, charting the development from the limited opportunities of the decades between 1840 and 1880 to the vigorous movement for reform during the 1880s and 90s. Dr Evans highlights the main personalities behind the movement and relates their work and ideas to the broader social and political context. His survey encompasses the debate surrounding curricular issues in schools, the establishment of training colleges and the place for women in the founding and expansion of the University colleges.
