How is our school different from the Egyptian one?

1. Modern schools are independent organizations, and schools in ancient Egypt belonged to temples.

2. In our schools specially trained people teach, but in the Egyptian schools the priests were engaged in education.

3. In modern schools (for the most part of them) both boys and girls study together. Only boys were taught in the schools of ancient Egypt.

4. Now in schools, even in the first grade, more than four subjects are taught, since the goal of the school is to educate a diversified personality. Egyptian schools trained scribes, so only two sciences were taught there: mathematics and writing.
