Abstract
educational provision has always involved much more than the ways of accumulation of academic knowledge. It has been central to the processes by which ideas of childhood has been socially constructed and, therefore, its history has much to tell us about the development of different educational systems in the context of changing ideologies in a changing society. At all times there was a very close connection between beliefs about childhood and educational provision of the society within which those beliefs had been held. Until sometime around the twelfth century, European society did not see childhood as a distinct period of development the way that we do now. children were viewed as miniature adults and participated fully in adult life.
