FORMATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE EDUCATION AL SYSTEM IN THE TERSK REGION: FEATURES AND NEEDS

The article is devoted to the problem of the formation and development of the education system on the territory of the Terek region of the Russian Empire. Particular attention is paid to the features and peculiarities of this vast and specific territory. The author notes that by the time of the creation of the region in the position of the administrative district of the Russian Empire, the region did not have a secular education. Confessional education was served by Koranic schools and parochial schools patronized by the Ossetian Spiritual Commission. An analysis of the sources and volumes of funding for education, formed in primary education, as well as women's "secondary" educational institutions, showed its insufficiency. Primary education covered only the poor sections of society. Students who need financial and other assistance in obtaining education include many local students who continue their education in higher educational institutions of the Russian Empire.
