Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a significant inquiry into the implementation and effects of the National System of Education in Ireland, rooted in the tumultuous era of the 19th century. The author, a devout Catholic, responds to the previously published work of the House of Commons and reveals discrepancies between the imagined aims and the actual functioning of the implemented system of education. An investigation of the era's Parliamentary debates and official reports reveal that the National System of Education, initially envisioned as one that would respect the religious independence of each student, was effectively used in many areas as a tool of religious conversion. The author focuses on the effects of the National System of Education on Irish Catholics as they experienced the state-funded proselytization of their children in schools meant to be religiously neutral spaces of learning. With mountains of evidence drawn from official parliamentary inquiries, returns, and reports, and enriched with many other ecclesiastical documents and personal correspondence, the author provides a searing indictment of the severe consequences of the system. Their shocking and heart-wrenching evidence included cases in which Catholic students were denied access to instruction in their own faith in their own schools and were forced to participate in Protestant religious instruction, with Catholic teachers risking their positions and livelihoods to protect them. The author concludes that the National System of Education, designed to unite the country under a common and fair standard of instruction, has succeeded only in causing divisions, with some schools spreading state-sponsored bigotry and engaging in religious coercion instead of providing a place of learning free from fear of conversion. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
