To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It means also wastage of energy through the cleavages between class and class ; and this wastage is compounded where — as is the natural tendency — such cleavages are, so to speak, institutionalized. It means a regime of status, autocracy, and exploitation. Third, the personnel or the authority that administers education has much to do with its character as static or dynamic. We have already discussed this phase of the subject in the section on government. It is obvious that if education be com...mitted to priests or ministers of religion, it will be chiefly concerned with dogma, tradition, and a social system that will support them. If it be governed by a class, say the prosperous upper section of the middle class, it will reflect the mores of prosperity ; if by an aris- tocracy, the prejudices and conservatisms of the leisure class. This of course is what prompted Mr. Galsworthy to charge English "Public" schools with being caste- factories ; they are under control of aristocrats and clergy- men.^ German schools are presumed to turn out obedient and militarist students because of predominance of the military caste.
