Focusing on early twentieth-century secularism, the book explores campaigns that contested Christian teachings on morality and citizenship in English schools. It highlights the efforts of various educators and pressure groups over 47 years, detailing their ideologies, resources, and proposals. Although secularist activists were a minority and faced internal divisions, they significantly influenced educational debates and policy, even if they couldn't fully replace majority views by 1944. The ongoing relevance of religious and secular ideals in education is also examined, making the analysis pertinent to contemporary discussions.
