Radstock school board victory over church influence on education
A Radstock dispute between the school board and the Education Department ends in favor of the board. The board, originally with three Nonconformists and two Churchmen, gains approval for a 200 pupil, two-room school to provide a complete elementary education free from clerical control. Lords and Lady Waldegrave resist site sale, then consent after department approval, culminating in a mixed church and nonconformist victory and a resignation of the agent for Lady Waldegrave.
