The article proves that the formation of primary education in Great Britain took place over the centuries, starting with the creation of charitable and private schools for children of poor and wealthy families in the 17th-18th centuries, the opening of industrial, religious and grammar schools at the beginning of the 19th century. The creation of a system of general compulsory primary education in Great Britain took place at the end of the 19th century – the beginning of the 20th century, which was established by government laws that provided for obligatory and free education, as well as ensured control over the schools. This process continued in the 20th century. During this period, the primary school was divided into junior primary school and senior primary school; education in primary school consisted of key stages; the content and teaching methods were revised as well.
The stages of formation of primary education in Great Britain are considered, namely: the first stage (XVII – first half of XVIII century) – formation and development of primary schools in Great Britain; the second stage (the second half of the 18th century (1780 – the foundation of the Sunday schools systems) – the beginning of the 19th century) – the development of Sunday schools and schools of mutual education; the third stage (the middle of the 19th century (1843 – the establishment of a Sunday school with a 4-year term of study) – the end of the 19th century) – the establishment of day-type schools, separated from religion, for the children of workers, as well as the petty and middle bourgeoisie; the fourth stage (the end of the 19th century (1870 – the Law on Compulsory Primary Education) – the creation of state primary boarding schools – the first half of the 20th century) – the formation of the state system of general education; the fifth stage (beginning of the 20th century – 1944) – the development of primary education (the adoption of a number of normative documents) and the sixth stage (1944 (Law on Education, Law on Compulsory Graduation Examination) – until now).
