(REPORTER) Once barefoot, today with glittering notebooks: first day of school through time

The article explores the historical evolution of compulsory schooling in Slovenia, tracing its origins back to the 18th century. It highlights how education was once a luxury rather than a necessity, with children starting school barefoot and relying on simple tools like a notebook. The piece emphasizes the gradual societal shift toward viewing education as essential, noting that early laws such as Maria Theresa’s 1774 decree marked significant changes. It discusses how schools adapted to rural life and how new subjects like physical education faced resistance from parents. The article concludes by reflecting on how modern society now sees school as an integral part of daily life, though this acceptance took time to develop.
