School is a building which has four walls with tomorrow inside- Lon Watters. Most countries have systems of formal education, which is sometimes compulsory. The history of education extends at least as far back as the first written records recovered from ancient civilizations. In ancient India, schools were in the form of Gurukuls. Gurukuls were traditional Hindu residential schools of learning; typically the teacher's house or a monastery. Under the British rule in India, Christian missionaries from England, USA and other countries established missionary and boarding schools throughout the country. Later as these schools gained in popularity, more were started and some gained prestige. These schools marked the beginning of modern schooling in India and the syllabus and calendar they followed became the benchmark for schools in modern India. The presentation gives further insight on the topic.
