Thomas See also:Charterhouse, where he remained for eighteen years, throwing , himself passionately into the See also:work of See also:education of his poor, degraded and often criminal parishioners. He began by establishing a school for ragamuffins in a blacksmith's abandoned See also:shed, and with the generous help of See also:friends he gradually extended its See also:- SCOPE (through Ital. scopo, aim, purpose, intent, from Gr. o'KOaos, mark to shoot at, aim, o ic07reiv, to see, whence the termination in telescope, microscope, &c.)
scope until the whole See also:parish was a network of See also:schools. In 1858 he was appointed a member of the Royal See also:Commission to inquire into popular education, and he was returned a representative of the London School See also:Board after the passing of See also:Forster's See also:Act in 187o. In 1863 the See also:bishop of London -gave him the living of St Botolph Bishopsgate. Rogers was also made a See also:prebendary of St See also:Paul's, and in 1857 he had been appointed See also:Chaplain in See also:Ordinary to the See also:Queen. Having largely solved at St Thomas's the problem of elementary education, at Bishopsgate Rogers tackled the no less difficult one of See also:middle-class schools. He believed in See also:secular education, leaving doctrinal training to parents and See also:clergy. To the cry against " godless education," Rogers impulsively replied, " Hang theology; let us begin "; and his See also:nickname of " Hang-theology Rogers " See also:stuck to him for the See also:rest of his See also:life. The See also:Cowper See also:Street Schools, costing £20,000, were the See also:practical result of his See also:energy. His next See also:great work was the reconstruction of See also:Edward See also:Alleyn's charity at See also:Dulwich. The new college was opened in 1870; new buildings were erected for the See also:lower school, and the See also:lion's See also:share of the work See also:fell upon Rogers. The See also:culmination of his labours was the opening, on his seventy-fifth birthday, of the Bishops-See also:gate See also:Institute, including a See also:- HALL
