Victorian schools Nearly every Victorian children went to school. They might have had a classroom like this. The children would have sat extremely still because they were scared to get hit with the cane.
TheTeacher The teachers were not exactly nice. They carry the cane everywhere. The children are always good because otherwise they would of got hit!
The Cane • The cane was used to give punishment to naughty children which hurt a lot. • The teacher would carry it around all the time! • If you were naughty you might have had to choose which cane you would be hit with. • The teacher might break the cane by bending it if they were really cross Instead of the cane some children had the slipper or the ruler across the hand, or fingers. All the children would have sat straight and would have been quiet.
The Head teacher! The head teacher was normally the worst and the scariest! Sometimes if you were bad you had to write hundreds of lines, on your hands and knees! They normally look like giants to the children.
Children at School • Children were very good and never spoke unless they were asked. They normally were scared and frightened about going to school!!
In the classroom • There were desks for children to sit at. • Children never talked in lessons, because they were scared to get caught.
Playtime! • At playtime it was the only time when children were allowed to make some noise. • The teachers were always watching though, waiting with the cane!!
Games The games that the children played in play time were such as hopscotch, marbles, hoops and tag.
Lessons The lessons were based on the three R’s witch were Reading, wRiting and aRithmetic (maths).
Lesson 2 The children would have been on the spot to ask questions. The teacher would point to the child and the child would stand and answer the questions.
Lesson 3 If you got the answer wrong you would either be called stupid or given the dunce cap. If you kept getting the answer wrong you could get the cane, slipper or ruler!
Leaving School! • When the children were about 10-12 years old they would have left school. They then go to work. • They would have probably been happy to leave school then, but they were going to go into a far more dangerous life!
