Reed that Jane be sent away to school. To Jane’s delight, Mrs. Reed concurs.
Once at the Lowood School, Jane finds that her life is far from idyllic. The school’s
headmaster is Mr. Brocklehurst, a cruel, hypocritical, and abusive man.
Brocklehurst preaches a doctrine of poverty and privation to his students while
using the school’s funds to provide a wealthy and opulent lifestyle for his own
family. At Lowood, Jane befriends a young girl named Helen Burns, whose strong,
martyrlike attitude toward the school’s miseries is both helpful and displeasing to
Jane. A massive typhus epidemic sweeps Lowood, and Helen dies of consumption.
The epidemic also results in the departure of Mr. Brocklehurst by attracting
attention to the insalubrious conditions at Lowood. After a group of more
sympathetic gentlemen takes Brocklehurst’s place, Jane’s life improves
dramatically. She spends eight more years at Lowood, six as a student and two as
a teacher.
