HISTORY OF SCHOOL

Private school for native children in the Netherlands East Indies
School is an institution designed for teaching students (or "pupils") under the supervision of teachers. Most countries have a formal education system, which is generally required. In these systems, students progress through a series of school. The names for these schools vary by country (discussed in the area below), but generally include primary school for young children and secondary school for teenagers who have completed primary education.
In addition to the core schools, students in a particular country may also have access to and following the schools both before and after primary and secondary education. Kindergarten or pre-school provide some school children are very young (usually ages 3-5 years). University, vocational school, college or seminary may be available after high school. A school may also be dedicated to one specific area, such as economics or a school dance school. Alternative schools may provide the curriculum and non-traditional methods.
There are also non-government schools, called private schools. Private schools may be for children with special needs when the government can not provide special schools for them, religious, such as Islamic schools, Christian schools, hawzas, and other yeshivas, or schools that have a higher standard of education or seek to develop other personal achievements. School for adults include institutions of corporate training and education and military training.
In homeschooling and online schools, teaching and learning takes place outside the traditional school building
