On National Education is a book written by Sarah Austin in 1839. The book is an exploration of the education system in England at the time and proposes reforms to improve the system. Austin argues that education should be accessible to all, regardless of social class or gender. She also advocates for the establishment of a national system of education, which would ensure that all children receive a consistent and high-quality education. The book is divided into two parts. The first part examines the current state of education in England and highlights its shortcomings. Austin argues that the current system is inadequate and that it fails to provide children with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in life. She also criticizes the lack of opportunities for girls to receive an education, arguing that this is a major obstacle to their advancement in society.The second part of the book proposes a series of reforms to improve the education system. Austin suggests that the government should establish a national system of education, which would ensure that all children receive a consistent and high-quality education. She also proposes that education should be free and accessible to all, regardless of social class or gender. Overall, On National Education is an important work that sheds light on the state of education in England in the 19th century. Austin's proposals for reform were ahead of their time and continue to be relevant today. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of education and the ongoing struggle for educational equity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
