Article rewrite edit

Kept some, but pretty much a rewrite, hopefully to the good. Notuncurious (talk) 21:49, 18 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Ratings, importance, future development edit

Set the ratings and importance; the article is probably of low importance for all; the "class" parameter doesn't really fit, but I stuck something in as a placeholder, if nothing else - it's a short article that covers a brief topic, and there's little else to say.

For future development: perhaps there was some notable situation or circumstance that caused this act to be passed, or perhaps there is some notable consequence of this act, in which case the article might be expanded. If there is some notable consequence, perhaps it would be in a citation of this act in some legal ruling. Notuncurious (talk) 19:33, 4 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Compulsory schooling? edit

"This made schooling compulsory for the first time in Scotland" is not a very satisfactory way of phrasing things if only a small minority of the population, the eldest sons of nobles and substantial freeholders, is involved. Mutt Lunker (talk) 23:49, 1 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
