Tudor+School+(Caitlin)

Tudor school Not many children went to school in Tudor time. Boys were educated for work and the girls for marriage and running a household. The wealthiest families hired a tutor to teach the boys at home.

Many Tudor towns and villages had a parish school where the local vicar taught boys to read and write.

Girls were either kept at home by their parents to help with housework or sent out to work to bring money in for the family.

Boys began school at the age of 4 and moved to grammar school when they were 7

At school, pupils often had to speak in Latin.
