Expert Answer
Schools during the Pre-colonial India
- William Adam, a Scottish missionary, was given the responsibility of providing details about the schooling system in India to the British officials.
- According to the surveys made by him, there were over one lakh ‘pathshalas’ in Bihar and Bengal which together were educating about 20 lakh children. These institutions were established either by rich people or by local communities.
- One of the significant features of these schools was that they were flexible in many areas. For example, fees were not fixed—while the rich paid more, the poor paid less. Further, classes were not held during the time of harvests so that children could help their parents in the fields.
- There were no separate school buildings, no benches, no printed books, no attendance register and no annual examinations.
