Abstract:

With a view to Balkan soldiers, school education in the Kardzhali region was organized in different schools. Organization and control of training was a must for Ottoman education. Greek Renaissance education and culture influenced the formation and development processes of Modern Bulgarian education and culture. A half-19th-century presentation led to the opening of monastery schools in Ivaylovgrad. Bulgarian ecclesiastical communities must have had significant educational outcomes in the region. During the second half of the 19th century, the foundations of secular school education were laid. In 1879, the first mutual school opened in the village of Avren near the town of Krumovgrad (Koshukavak at the time). At the men’s high schools in Edirne and Thessaloniki, students from the Eastern Rhodope region were trained, following the completion of shoes for some of those who needed to study in different settlements in the region. One needed to limit the restrictions on the part of the Greek clergy and administrative authority in order to start mass education in Bulgarian. The structure of school education was dominated by the number of private schools compared to public schools. During the period under review, no classrooms were opened in the region.
