After the restoration of Georgia's state independence in 1918, the Georgian political and cultural elite resolved various problems. The 1918-1921 years were politically highly charged period in the history of Georgia. The declaration of independence brought many problems together with many positive developments. That was related to the preservation and revival of national symbols, as well as to political, social, economic, and cultural reforms that envisaged eventual changes of the consciousness of the Georgian society within the frames of a new state. Along with various state-of-the-art transformations and measures, all the problems that constituted the remnant of Russian rule were to be resolved. This primarily concerned the education system. There was an urgent need to carry out educational work in the Georgian language in schools. Ref. 1.
