living expenses.

do not have the opportunity to go to the university to study for degree. Its courses are

TAPESCRIPT:
In the earliest times children got their education directly from parents and other
adults. They learned mainly skills for survival. Adults passed down this knowledge
through spoken language. Eventually cultures around the world began inventing
writing. As societies developed they set up schools to teach reading, writing,
arithmetic, and other subjects.
The first schools were usually for the boys. Most of the students came from
rich and powerful families. Often the purpose of their education was religious

training. In many cultures religious leaders formed the highest level of society. Some
schools had other purposes as well. Many schools focused on military training.
Sometimes, youth attended special schools to learn the art of public speaking. These
skills were meant to help them become future leaders.
