Chapter-Ii Historical Background of Public Schools
C H APTER -II HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2.0 INTRODUCTORY REMARKS The purpose of this chapter is to give an account of historical back ground of Public Schools, both in England and in India. It is essential to know the origin and development of Public Schools in England, as Public Schools in India had been transplanted from England. 2.1 ORIGIN OF THE TERM PUBLIC SCHOOL The term 'Public School' finds its roots in ancient times. In ancient time kings and bishops used to run the schools for the poor. No fee was charged. All used to live together. It was a union of 'classes'. The expenses were met by public exchequer. Thus the name was given to these schools as Public Schools. 2.2 ESTABLISHMENT OF FIRST PUBLIC SCHOOLS William of Wykeham, Bishop of Winchester established 'Saint Marie College' at Winchester in 1382. This foundation made a crucial departure from previous practice and thus, has a great historical importance. All the previous schools had been ancillary to other establishments; they Kod been established as parts of cathedrals, collegiate churches, monasteries, chantries, hospitals or university colleges. The significance of this college is its independent nature. 17 Its historian, A.F. Leach says "Thus for the first time a school was established as a sovereign and independent corporation, existing by and for itself, self-centered and self-governed."^ The foundation of Winchester College is considered to be the origin of the English Public School because of three conditions: 1. Pupils were to be accepted from anywhere in England (though certain countries had priority). -

Outcomes Following Global Connections V
Outcomes following Global Connections V Garth Grierson, Principal of Maru-a-Pula in Botswana advises: "It is likely that Maru-a-Pula will be able to offer a scholarship to Hotchkiss through Skip Mattoon, have links for Mawana for Aiglon College in Switzerland and L'Ermitage in France. L'Ermitage might also be able to link up with MaP French Dept. for enrichment and development." Fr. Edmund Mallya of Loyola High School in Tanzania advises that as a result of GC V, they have begun an environmental group at Loyola. Paul Geise of Pine Point (CT, USA) will be sending the middle school director to Starehe to begin the process of building a student leadership model such as theirs at Pine Point. O. Hoagland Keep of Eaglebrook School (MA, USA) is to conduct an all-school lecture on Starehe, host school for GC V, during the 2001-2002 school year. O. Hoagland Keep of Eaglebrook School (MA, USA) will sponsor a student to Maseno School in Maseno, Kenya, for the 2002-2003 school year and is challenging his Student Council to do the same. Alan Patterson, Mowbray College, Australia, has commenced a staff-to-staff communication with Paul Otula at Maseno School, Kenya. Robert LennoX, Headmaster of Warwick Academy, Bermuda, presented to his staff about the lessons of Starehe, helping to turn the traditional academic school into a more "participative, inviting one." He addressed an assembly of his students on 10 September, 2001 about the experiences of the Seminar at Starehe Boys' Centre and School. Mr. LennoX and his wife (Warwick Academy, Bermuda) shall assist the young man from Starehe Boys' Centre and School, Kenya, who became their school guide and are persuading Warwick Academy's 'Leo' club to do the same.
