Education• There were 2 types of schools in Rome. The first
type was for children about 11 or 12. They learned to read, write, and do basic mathematics.
• For writing, they used a stylus and a wax tablet. • Older children would go to more advanced
schools where they did studies on topics such as public speaking.
• Girls rarely went to these schools as they were allowed to get married at the age of 12, where boys had to wait until they were 14 to get married.
