Description

Argentina created the National Council of Education on 6 March 1881. The council helped organize primary schools across the country. It supervised teacher training, curriculum standards, and classroom materials. The new structure strengthened educational access during a period of rapid population growth. Officials used the council’s guidance to expand public schooling in rural and urban areas. Its decisions shaped national learning policies for decades. The institution became a foundation of Argentina’s modern education system.
