Educating Bradford

Undercliffe CemeteryBradford, England
Sunday, May 17  •  11 AM - 12:30 PM
Overview

Join us as we uncover the stories of the remarkable people who championed education for Bradford’s children

Discover the men who devoted themselves to the new school board, those who financed scholarships for girls, and the women who tirelessly raised funds for school buildings and equipment.

But where are the teachers? Why are so few women teachers buried at Undercliffe when women have long formed the majority of the profession? We’ll explore the reasons behind this surprising mystery.

And what of the earliest teachers laid to rest here? Could there be an exciting discovery waiting to be revealed?
