Mid-19th Century Teacher Training

 
From "Le Correspondant" of 1856, Teacher-training in England:

"In the larger schools the local teacher and administrators would choose, from the best pupils, those who would be presented to the inspector as possible pupil-teachers. After a long examination with particular regard to docility of character, religious sentiment, good health, the parents' honesty, the inspector would select those whom he would present for approval by the Education Committee of the Queen's Council.

This title, which could not be obtained before the age of thirteen, was the first step towards becoming a teacher. The family's approval was necessary, since there was a written agreement signed by both parties.

The pupil-teacher was to remain five years, in return for certain pecuniary advantages. The teacher with whom the candidate was placed was to initiate the pupil into the art of teaching, and give at least an hour and a half of private lessons either morning or evening, over and above daily classes, in the subjects required for the end of year exam. ...

After completing the five years - which was not always achieved (due to a failed exam, a bad conduct report by the vicar, an unfavourable report from the teacher in charge...) - on passing an exam, the candidate could become a Queen's Scholar at a training school. After a further three years' study, with end of year exams, i.e. at age twenty-one at least, the candidate could take the final exam and if successful receive the Certificate of Merit, and in all cases, take over the running of a school."

 
From "Annals of British Legislation" 1861

Copy of the Minutes and Regulations of the Committee of the Privy Council on Education:

125. Special Provision for the Instruction of Pupil Teachers.
Instruction of Female Apprentices in Domestic Industry.
Female pupil teachers, before admission to apprenticeship, must produce a written attestation from the schoolmistress and managers that they possess reasonable competency as sempstresses; and, at the annual examinations, must bring certified specimens of plain needlework to the inspector, together with a statement from the schoolmistress, specifying whether they have been receiving practical instruction in any other kind of domestic industry. The inspector, at the time of the examination, or afterwards, will obtain the opinion of some competent person upon the merit of the needlework.

126. Instruction of Pupil Teachers in Drawing.
If any of the exercises in drawing enumerated in Article 97 be worked successfully during the apprenticeship, the fact is registered as so much gained towards the memorandum of full competency in drawing, and bears the corresponding value as soon as the candidate has become a certificated teacher.

127. The exercises may be worked in any order, but not more than one in the same year of apprenticeship.

128. Pupil teachers are admitted to study at any of the drawing schools in connection with the Department of Science and Art, at half the ordinary fees.

129. Pupil teachers, if attending such drawing schools, are not required to perform an exercise in drawing at the annual examination before the inspector, but have another opportunity of being examined in connection with the drawing school itself.

130. Pupil teachers, if not attending such drawing schools, have an opportunity of performing an exercise in drawing at the annual examination before the inspector.

131. Pupil teachers, although not attending such drawing schools, may be permitted (by arrangements between the managers of the schools in which they are apprenticed and the master of any such drawing school), to be annually examined there instead of at the annual examination of pupil teachers before an inspector.

133. Pupil Teachers who have successfully completed their Apprenticeship.
At the close of the apprenticeship, any person properly interested in knowing the character of a pupil teacher, may apply to the Committee of Council for a certificate, declaring that the pupil teacher has successfully completed an apprenticeship; or the pupil teacher may become a Queens scholar in a normal school, or an assistant in an elementary school."
