EDITORS COMMENTS
Sitting examinations, Crawford Street School, Camberwell, London, 1906. This print captures a significant moment in the education of young minds at Crawford Street School over a century ago. Rows upon rows of diligent boys and girls can be seen sitting at their desks inside the school hall, engrossed in taking their Oxford Local examination. The atmosphere is one of focused determination as teachers supervise from both the front and back of the room. The image showcases not only the dedication of these educators but also highlights the crowded nature of classrooms during this era. Located in Camberwell, Southwark, London, this snapshot offers a glimpse into early 20th-century education practices under the guidance of London County Council. The furniture within the hall reflects an era when simplicity prevailed in classroom design. This photograph is part of Guildhall Library and Art Gallery's collection held by Greater London Council (GLC). It serves as a valuable historical record that sheds light on educational systems and teaching methods employed during this time period. As we observe these young students diligently working towards their academic goals amidst humble surroundings, it reminds us to appreciate how far our educational institutions have evolved since then.
