In the 1800s, education reforms focused on expanding public education, promoting universal access to schooling, and improving teacher training. One notable reform was the establishment of common schools, or public schools, to provide education to children regardless of their background. These reforms aimed to create a more educated and skilled workforce to support economic growth and social progress.
