Public education was an idea of the Church of England, to educate those who were too poor to afford private education. (I'm atheist so I am unbiased).

This idea was welcomed, many other Christian denominations also copied the idea (mainly the Catholics).

When the government of England found that education helped abolish poverty and helped to make citizens be more more productive to society, they started to make state run schools.

But to this day, they are many Church run schools still in England.

Many other countries followed the English example, especially the ones in the British empire at the time.

How did the northwest ordinance of 1787 affect slavery and public education?

The Northwest Ordinance of 1787 established a framework for the governance of the Northwest Territory and included provisions that significantly influenced slavery and public education. It explicitly prohibited slavery in the territory, setting a precedent for future states in the region to be free states. Additionally, the ordinance promoted public education by mandating that land be set aside for schools, thereby laying the groundwork for public education as a fundamental right in the new territories. This dual focus helped shape the socio-political landscape of the emerging United States.
