Excerpt from Education for Industrial Purposes: A Report France did she face the question of training her artisans. Until the great educational enactment of 1889, the Mechanics' Institutes were in the main the only means whereby the working and the middle classes continued or supplemented the inadequate provision of the day schools. These Institutes in the early days of the nine teenth centurv were the forerunner of what we now call Technical education. The inferiority of English manufactures, as demonstrated at the exhibition of 1851, led to parliamentary grants. In aid of Science and Art classes. These were dis tributed by the Science and Art Department: so that one department controlled elementary education. And another the secondary and technical schools. The Act of 1899 fused these two departments. And the Act of 1902. Already referred to, introduced unity into local administration. The Technical Institu tions Acts of 1889'and 1891 had authorized the levying of a local tax of a penny in the pound for technical education. And. In addi tion. The local authorities receive considerable revenue from the Customs and Excise. And from the various Trade Guilds. Which are both numerous and wealthy, especially in London. In recent years the amounts derived from the Customs and Excise have de creased considerably and the Government has promised to set aside a portion of the land tax to make up the deficiency. The Govern ment has also given large grants for the support of technical edu cation; but the general educational system of England has been so long in an unorganized condition that the technological branch is still behind those of the Continent of Europe.
