Answer:
The anicent education system was based known as the indian system of education. It was based on astrology and basic knowledge. The sons of the kings and priest were only allowed to study. Girls were mainly forbidden to attain education.
The schooling were held outside rather than in a building and gurukuls were there where all the students are treated equally as tribals,and because of this, they had to cut woods from the forests and do such work for themselves.
The students were made to do cramming to learn what they are reading, rather than writing it.
This type of system was believed extremely strange and inferior by the Britishers, and hence, they changed the system of education.
