Geschiedenis
The British and Foreign School Society was founded in 1808 as the Society for Promoting the Lancastrian System for the Education of the Poor and was renamed in 1814. The Society built Borough Road building in 1816 and sold it to the South London Polytechnic Institute Council in 1890 in order to become the main premises of the Borough Polytechnic Institute.
Records of the Society are held by Brunel University.
