Who Invented Schools?
Schools have been around with us since the humans became civilized. There is certainly no doubt that the ancients around 10,000 BC were teaching their children the art of survival. But in the strict sense of the word they can’t be considered as schools.Near 4000 BC the Mesopotamians developed the art of writing; which, like it is today, was essential to commerce, politics and other advanced spheres of human life. Therefore it became essential to teach and train people who could read and write and that is when the first school (in the modern sense of the word) came into being. The early schools used to cater to only the children belonging to the nobility of their society.
