Governance and Administration of Education in Ancient India: A Study on Vedic and Buddhist Education Systems

Author(s) Mr. Shekhar Sardar, Prof. Dr. Purabi Baishya
Country India
Abstract Ancient India possessed a rich, high-quality educational framework tailored to the needs of its time, earning widespread historical appreciation. The education of the Vedic and Buddhist eras has gained special status in ancient Indian civilisation. In that time, the education system was not only enriching the Indian public life and social system, but also had a special influence outside India. The educational management and administration of that time played a special role in running the education system. The institutional concept of educational administration in the Indian education system also originated from this time. This research paper has mentioned detailed information about the structure, effectiveness and impact of educational administration in the ancient Indian education, namely Vedic and Buddhist education systems. The Gurukul system in the Vedic period, many Buddhist monasteries and educational institutions like Nalanda, Takshashila (Although historically rooted in the Vedic tradition, Takshashila also adapted to the institutional shifts of the Buddhist era), gave a unique dimension to the Indian education system. The well-organised, well-controlled and democratic education administration had a special contribution to the smooth running of all these educational institutions. Every aspect of the management of educational institutions, i.e. student admission, curriculum, teaching, role of students, supply of necessary materials for education, infrastructural aspects, financial supply and state influence, etc., was specially controlled and observed, which was considered an essential part of the management of any education system.
