INVESTIGAREA STRUCTURALĂ A CONCEPTELOR LEGISLAȚIEI INSTRUCTIVE PRIMARE DIN BASARABIA ÎN ANII ′70 - ′80 AI SEC. AL XIX-lea. REZULTATE STATISTICE

Abstract

As a result of the reforms promoted in all spheres of activity of the Russian state, including education, during the last two decades of the 19th century, the situation changed radically. Therefore, both the number of educational institutions and the school contingent enrolled in studies has increased considerably. In 1890, in Bessarabia, 403 village public schools were operating, within which a school contingent of 31,324 students was trained. Overall, 620 primary education institutions operated in the region, with a school contingent of 38,301 students. From the total number of schools, indicated above, 596 educational institutions, including - 101 heads, were subordinated to the Ministry of Public Education (13, p.14). Towards the end of the eighth decade of the 19th century, the table of figures, which illustrated the situation in Bessarabian public education, changed radically. Jewish schools already accounted for only 17% of the total ministerial public educational institutions (and not - 75%, as it was previously), although their number remained practically unchanged, the decrease was achieved due to the establishment of a considerable contingent of new public village schools, which were meant to train the Bessarabian rural population. Therefore, the positive impact of the education reforms was substantiated by the 68%, which belonged to village schools, from the total number of school units, subordinated to the Ministry of Public Instruction
