Excerpt from Educational Reform Speeches I have here reprinted, on the suggestion of a friend, a small selection of speeches which I have delivered in the House of Commons and in the country since my assumption of Office a year ago as President of the Board of Education, and to these speeches is appended a note Of some of the principal features in the Education Bill now before Parliament. My hope is that this little volume may serve to show my fellow countrymen how necessary it is that our system of National Education should be as good as we can make it and some of the ways in which it can be made better than it is.
