Abstract
This article discusses the contentious introduction and extension of compulsory education in the United Kingdom, focusing principally on the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, but also highlighting recent and current policy developments affecting the lower and upper ages of compulsion. A comparative dimension is included, both in respect of differing traditions and histories of the four countries of the United Kingdom and of wider European and global developments.
