What 2 ancient civilizations established the first schools?

Question

This could be any of the following Greek, Sumer, Babylonian, Islam,Rome, Egypt, or china. Which one and I need proof to back this up.

Answer 1

6000 B.C
Mesopotamia- Babylonia encompassed two geographical areas - Akkad in the north and Sumer, the delta of this river system, in the south.
So SUMER and BABYLONIA would be considered the same, and are the OLDEST of the civilizations.

In ancient Sumer the development of writing was closely connected to the growth of Sumerian civilisation.
The ancient Sumerians believed in education.
Record keeping was very important to them.
They wrote everything down.
Writing allowed for the permanent recording of records, stories and laws, and permitted the formation of an educated class (scribes). The original writing made use of thousands of pictographs. As the language altered, adopting wedge-shaped symbols, about 600 of these characters could be used to write all that was expressed in the spoken language. Sumerian began by writing in columns from right to left. As it developed, it became easier to write in rows from left to right.

To teach writing it was necessary for formal education to take place; thus the first schools in the world were in Sumer. Schooling was only available to boys. These schools were attached to temples. The teachers (Masters) used harsh methods to encourage student attention and learning. Students had to learn to write correctly through repetitive exercises. While the time at school for a student was difficult, it made available good career opportunities to those completed it.

Answer 2

Egypt and Greece. Egypt began developing schools for scribes almost as soon as they had sufficient papyrus. Greece went more toward oral learning although students there also learned to write.

Those are formal schools. The truth is the first caveman to learn flint knapping taught it to others, usually young boys. Learning to hunt, to make weapons and to skin animals were all early skills that had to be taught. On the female side, women learned to care for the fire, to cook, and to tan hides.

Answer 3

hm. i'm pretty sure it's greek and egypt. greek sent boys to school and egypt had scribal schools, so i guess it counts as a
"school". sadly, i have no proof on me now except that i studied this in the 6th grade (like a few yrs. ago.)
