Title

Museum of Education: the Victorian Classroom

Description

The Victorian Classroom is housed in the building rear of Skene Square School. The School itself was founded in early 19C by Dr John Brown who built it in his garden. The current buildings show evidence of school design at the end of that century including, for example, separate entrances for boys and girls. Within the Museum of Education a room has been reconstructed and equipped in the style of a classroom in Aberdeen as it would have been in Victorian times. This style existed in certain schools well into 20th century.
