Educational Institutions Established In 1980
Education is a purposeful activity directed at achieving certain aims, such as transmitting knowledge or fostering skills and character traits.

Etymology and definitions The name "public" originates with the Latin '' publicus'' (also '' poplicus''), from ''populus'', to the English word 'populace', and in general denotes some mass population ("the p ...
