I won’t muck around in this lesson! Pupils’ day in a Victorian classroom
8:10am Tuesday 14th February 2012 in News
CHILDREN were transported back in time to discover what it was like to learn in a Victorian classroom.
Pupils and staff at Greensted Infant School and Nursery in Kirby Road, Basildon, dressed up and experienced a day in the life of a Victorian school as part of their history lesson.
Headteacher Jo Farrow said: “All the children and staff experienced what school would have been like more than 100 years ago.
“They really enjoyed writing on slates.”

shame that isn't the case in any, ordinary, modern day lesson though isn't it?
Maybe the Victorian method hould be brought back full time.
