Due to mass unemployment and insubstantial living conditions during the 1800's in England, the Victorian children were sent to work in mines as diggers or moverswhich involved moving mass quantities of coal, dirt, stone on quite decrepit trolley's However, the majority of children were ostracised from their homes from their own parents as they could no longer afford to feed them. So it would seem out of an act of kindness that these families sent their children to Workhouses or factories (being the industrial age) where they would eat, sleep and work together. their work included; mending machines (as children's arms are small enough to reach into them, often children lost arms and fingers), crafting, stitching etc, much like a sweatshop.Some boys were made to be Chimney Sweeps.Young boys up to the age of ten would be shoved up a very rich pesons chimney to clean it.If not fast enough they would set alight the fire so the child would clean faster.
no because the poor children were working for the rich families !
No. Children of upper middle class parents, noble families etc would have been in some form of education until their late teens.
Yes, Victorian children swept the streets and worked in factories even at the age of 6! :o
if they had the money
Children living in Britain during Victorian times, were either rich or poor. If they were poor, they often had to work to help out the family.
victorian children wrote with charcoalI think you will find that for school work they used a chalk and board, and for writing on paper, a quill pen and ink, but if you were poor and in a village school you would only use chalk
1 work in gold mines 2 work up chimleys 3 work for adults
children didnt go to school in Victorian times as schooling was expensive and the vast majority couldn't afford to be educated. money was more important and with money they could feed themselves if nothing else so children were put to work as soon as they could be. hope this helps hun Before the Education act of about 1887, there was no enforced schooling, so if a family were poor, children did not go to school, but went to work instead.
Rich children then were rich because they worked. They lived like children nowadays - with parents.
work in a workhouse's

yes they did because they were poor and there parents needed money and they were to old to get money.
Poor Victorian children were often unable to attend school due to financial constraints or needing to work to support their families. Those who did attend typically received a basic education in a charity or Sunday school, where reading, writing, and arithmetic were taught. The quality of education varied greatly depending on the resources available in their community.
Victorian workers were mostly children. These children were called labours. They worked very hard. But they didn't get paid properly. These children were very poor.
