1896年，约克郡米德尔斯堡文法学校的校长第一次报告了学校里发生的社会变化。八年前，提供了15个年度奖学金，资助小学“聪明男孩”的免费中等教育。结果，“一个相当新的男孩班”被引入学校，“导致许多其他人的出走。“学校“因男生退学而受到严重影响，他们被送到寄宿学校。“然而“学校的语气丝毫没有受到影响。人们发现新来的人“来自有名望的家庭，道德水准很高。”从十年的角度来看，校长觉得有理由要求较好的班级家长“接受正在发生的事情，认识到教育工人阶级的好处。“160名学生“，他们的智力发展在许多情况下是惊人的”，丰富了他的学校的人口作为创新的结果。
In 1896 the headmaster of the grammar school in Middlesbrough, Yorkshire had the first occasion to report on the social changes occurring in his school. Eight years earlier, fifteen annual scholarships had been endowed to finance free secondary education of the "cleverer boys" from elementary schools. As a result, "quite a new class of boys" was introduced into the school and "caused the exodus of good many others." The school "suffering severely in consequence by the withdrawal of boys who were sent to boarding schools." Yet "the tone of the school [had] not suffered in the least." It was discovered that the newcomers were "drawn from respectable families in which the moral tone would be high." From the perspective of a decade the headmaster felt it justifiable in good conscience to ask the better class parents to "reconcile themselves to what was happening and to recognize the advantage of educating the working-classes." One hundred and sixty students "whose mental development in many cases is marvellous" have enriched the population of his school as a result of the innovation.
