A Brief History of the Ministry of National Education
The idea of conducting education and training services by the state was the first developed during the period of II. Mahmut. The education and training services that had been previously carried out by the foundations were transfered to Maarif-i Umumiye Nezareti on 17 March 1857. And, a minister responsible for education and training services took his place in the parliament. With the establishment of the Ministry, the schools were divided into three levels: primary, secondary, and mekâtib-i fünün-i mütenevvia. (sıbyan, rüştiye ve mekâtib-i fünün-i mütenevvia)
The first legal regulation on our education system is the Regulation on Education (Maarif-i Umumiye Nizamname) issued in 1869. With this regulation, issues such as right to education, education management, determination of education system, education appropriations, teacher training and employment, provincial organization and examination systems were arranged. At the same time, the Parliamentary Assembly, consisting of two departments such as science and administrative , was established with the Grand Education Assembly (Meclis-i Kebir-i Maarif) and Provincial Councils (Maarif Meclisi) were established. In 1872, the Great Education Council was turned into a single assembly and the departments were arranged according to the teaching steps.
