Abstract

Beginning from the end of the 18th century, the educational reforms in the Ottoman Empire laid the foundations for the early Republican Period in Turkey. The educational reforms, however, could not totally transform the educational system and the duality in education persisted because of several reasons such as the resistance of the old educational institutions to reforms and the continuous wars taking place in and around Turkey in the first quarter of the 20th century.
