The Cardwell Reforms were a series of reforms of the British Army undertaken by Secretary of State for War Edward Cardwell between 1868 and 1874 with the support of Liberal prime minister William Ewart Gladstone. Gladstone paid little attention to military affairs but he was keen on efficiency. In 1870, he pushed through Parliament major changes in Army organisation. Germany's stunning triumph over France in the Franco-Prussian War proved that the Prussian system of professional soldiers with up-to-date weapons was far superior to the traditional system of gentlemen-soldiers that Britain used.

(en) Les réformes Cardwell étaient une série de réformes de la British Army (armée britannique) entreprises par le secrétaire d'État à la Guerre Edward Cardwell entre 1868 et 1874 avec le soutien du Premier ministre libéral William Ewart Gladstone. Gladstone ne s'intéressait guère aux affaires militaires, mais il était très attaché à l'efficacité. En 1870, il fait adopter par le Parlement des changements majeurs dans l'organisation de l'armée. Le triomphe éclatant de l'Allemagne sur la France lors de la guerre franco-prussienne a prouvé que le système prussien de soldats professionnels dotés d'armes modernes était bien supérieur au système traditionnel de gentlemen-soldiers utilisé par la Grande-Bretagne.
