Akhtar newspaper and education system

The Naseri period can be considered as one of the most important periods in the contemporary history of Iran. The competition and the extensive influence of Russia and England had led to the dissatisfaction of sections of the society. In such a situation, from time to time a reaction was made by the Iranian reformers in order to reform and change the existing situation. The establishment and start of Akhtar newspaper contributed to such a goal. Akhtar was the first international newspaper that was published in Istanbul for 23 years in a modern style. The articles and contents of this newspaper were effective in promoting and publishing reformist ideas. One of the most important components that Akhtar emphasized was the change in the education system. From the point of view of Akhtar administrators, reforming the education system could help improve the quality of human resources and provide the basis for reforms in Iran. This research aims to analyze the educational system of Iran during the Nasrid era by descriptive-analytical method and based on the contents of Akhtar newspaper and analyze the model of reforming the Iranian education system based on the contents of this newspaper.
