The Education System

The lessons taught were different from what’s being taught today. Students were required to memorize what they had learned and recited it in front of the classroom to see what they had learned.

Very Few Women Were Educated

Statistics show that 50 years ago around 13 per cent of all men had a degree compared to 8 per cent of women. As a result their confidence levels were low too.

Fewer Educational Institutes

Public Schools were fewer hence most parents preferred to have private tutors at home to teach their kids. As learning was not compulsory, this was only for those who were interested and could afford it. Teachers would move from one house to the other doing private tutoring.

Learning tools used back then included stuff like abacus, chalk, blackboard, pencils, paper
