The origins and development of primary education at Nadur

Abstract

One way of approaching current trends in education is to trace in the past influences that have produced them. Some of the essential problems of education remain~ fundamentally the same from age to age; they are perennial problems of education. Ohteres change and only a record remains of the past ones; yet their observation and study remain equally valid. The essential problems of education, however must be interpreted afresh in every age, and in a time like ours a complex one of rapid change without precedent an attempt must also be made to look into the characters of a particular education system through details of organization and practice. This end can be reached through a close-up study of a school story. With distinctive features on one hand, common aspects on the other, a case study of a school story can contribut~ greatly to the understanding of the history of centralized educational system.
