The Second Prince adopted Marvin's plan and, at breakneck speed, announced the end of the pilot program and began implementing the policy in towns and cities throughout the southern part of the Kingdom.
It was an exceptionally bold move. Previously, the "Educational Reform Act" was limited to London, and the decree issued by Arthur to dismiss public school teachers and principals had affected only the nobility of London. Now, with the expansion of the scope, it instantly caused an uproar in the south of the Kingdom.
This action also enraged many nobles from outside of London.
Within a week, a torrent of reproach poured into London. Countless people wrote to the King, demanding Arthur's decree be stopped, and the mailbox at Nine Downing Street, the Prime Minister's Residence, was flooded.
Even the Church received anonymous letters denouncing Arthur.
