Excerpt from Outlines of the Modern Education in Japan In 1868, the shoheiko was organized as a university, and was soon constituted a Board of Education with power to control all educational affairs. Up to this time, the educational executive had chiefly directed their attention to higher education, and had little or no idea of diffusing general education. In the provinces, where the revolutionary commotions had scarcely yet ended, and where old feudal usages were still in force, no fixed standard yet existed, in regard to school regulations. Consequently, regulations were framed for universities, middle schools, and elementary schools; and the principles of learning, the educational system, regulations for the admission of provincial pupils to the university, the mode of examina tions, school expenses, and subjects of study were prescribed; but these regulations were never carried into operation.
