Abstract

The travelling schools of New South Wales were a response to two factors which have influenced the development of public education in New South Wales from its inception in 1848. Firstiy, many parts of New South Wales have only ever been sparsely settled, resulting in many children beinggeographically isolated. Secondly, a basic tenet of the New South Wales government school system has always been that it should provide educational facilities wherever they are required.
