EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, offers a glimpse into the world of domestic science students at Battersea Polytechnic and the National Training School of Cookery in London. The image showcases two distinct scenes: one depicting students engaged in chemical experiments within a laboratory setting, while the other captures young learners diligently ironing their garments in a designated room. The photo serves as an illustration for The Teachers Encyclopaedia edited by A. P. Laurie and published by Caxton in 1911. It beautifully encapsulates the essence of education, highlighting both theoretical knowledge and practical skills that were imparted to these eager minds during their formative years. The children featured are seen under the guidance of their teachers, who play crucial roles in shaping their academic journey. This snapshot not only emphasizes the importance of hands-on learning but also underscores gender equality as both boys and girls can be observed actively participating. Preserved within a private collection, this historic print offers us a window into early 20th-century educational practices. Through photography's lens, we witness moments frozen in time – moments that speak volumes about dedication to teaching and fostering well-rounded individuals capable of excelling both inside and outside classrooms. With its timeless appeal, this photograph continues to inspire curiosity about our past while reminding us of the invaluable role education plays in shaping society's future generations.
