Regimental Schools. In Great Britain, are educational establishments maintained by the state in every regiment, for the instruction of soldiers and soldiers’ children. There is a schoolmaster for the soldiers and elder boys, and a trained schoolmistress—usually the schoolmaster’s wife—to teach the girls and infants of both sexes. Attendance at the schools is compulsory for the soldiers and optional for the children. Religious instruction takes place on Monday mornings, when children can be kept from school if their parents object to the instruction imparted. The girls’ school comprises an “industrial” section for needle-work, etc.
In France, écoles primaires or regimentaires, “primary or regimental schools,” were founded in 1818, in which the soldiers were taught writing, reading, and arithmetic.
In Prussia, there are established garrison schools (Garnisons Schulen) for the instruction of soldiers’ children; and battalion schools (Bataillons Schulen), in which non-commissioned officers and privates are instructed in writing, reading, orthography, and arithmetic; also in making out reports and other official papers.
