Abstract
The article discusses the system of public education on the territory of the Black Sea province in 1896–1917. In this part, the authors consider the period of 1908–1917, that is, from the start of preparatory activities for the introduction of universal primary education to the February revolution. The main sources for the preparation of the work were the annual “Reports on the state of educational institutions in the Caucasian educational district” which presented data on schools under the Ministry of Public Education and the All-Subordinate reports of the Ober-Prosecutor of the Holy Synod, which reflected the information on parish schools. The reporting documents of the Ministry of Public Education, which were deposited in the Russian state historical archive (Saint Petersburg, Russian Federation), are also of great importance. In conclusion, the authors state that in the period from 1896 to 1917 a whole network of educational institutions was established on the territory of the Black sea province, which consisted of 4 high schools, 11 lower educational institutions and 156 primary schools. The total number of educational institutions was 171, 30 of those were subordinate to the ecclesiastical department, and 128 — to the Ministry of Public Education. On the eve of the First world war, more than 10 thousand children were enrolled in schools, out of 13,8 thousand children of school age. Under these circumstances, if this course had continued and had not been affected by the First world war, we could say that by 1918, all 100 % of children in the Black sea province would have been covered by school.
