More about this scene
Sunday schools were where most children received a rudimentary education until the passing of Forster's Education Act. By 1812 the schools run by John Whittaker had over 2,000 children enrolled, and ideally Whittaker needed one large building to house them all. Thanks to donations the Large Sunday School, as it was then known, opened in April 1814.
