Educational Institutions Established In 1901
Education is a purposeful activity directed at achieving certain aims, such as transmitting knowledge or fostering skills and character traits. These aims may include the development of understanding, rationality, kindness, and honesty.

Types of education are commonly divided into formal, ...
