Synopsis
Excerpt from Public Instruction in Peru
The teachers in the primary schools are women in the majority of cases. Although supposed to have a diploma, the majority of teachers are not so provided.12 Thus, out of teachers, men, women, two-thirds did not possess a diploma.
At present there are three normal schools - one for men and two for women. Two are located in Lima, and a comparatively smaller one for women in Arequipa. Previously there were more, but financial and other diffities have caused the closing of the others. The act of Congress (march, 1901) provided at least three normal schools for men, and three for women. In the normal school for men the currium provides three years of study, which differs somewhat from that provided for the women's normal school. In the normal school for women in Lima the course of studies is as follows: First year: Spanish grammar and literature, penmanship arithmetic, geography, history, religion, object lessons, domestic economy and hygiene, manual training, French or English, vocal music, physical exercises, attendance upon model classes in the School of Practice. Second year: general notions and anthropology and infant psychology, pedagogy, history, general hygiene, domes tic economy, religion, elocution and composition, manual training. French or English, music, physical exercises, attendance upon model classes in the School of Practice. Third year: Methodology, notions of the history of education, school hygiene, domestic economy, civic education and school legislation, manual training, French or English.
