Education in Ecuador
The evolution of education in Ecuador dates back to 1550 with the establishment of San Andrés School in Quito, primarily serving indigenous students. The colonial era marked a period where educational opportunities were skewed towards those with economic advantages, though religious orders like the Jesuits provided scholarships to underprivileged students.

History
6. According to the 2008 Constitution, the State will guarantee free education at all levels, and regulated by the Ministry of Education, this implies that the State must designate a portion of the general budget for investment in education.
4. By 1871, primary education was made free and compulsory throughout the country.
A process of training indigenous teachers in women's schools was also integrated and technical education was introduced at a higher level.
3. In many of the attempts to make education formal in the country, the Universidad Santo Tomás was founded and remains today under the name of Universidad Central del Ecuador, which allowed a representative point in the development of educational problems.
2. The colonial educational system tended to benefit people with greater economic resources. However, this was not an impediment for the religious educational authorities such as the Jesuits not to give scholarships to people of scarce economic resources.
1. Education in Ecuador began with the founding of the San Andrés School in Quito in 1550.
Its main students were indigenous, who in turn would be the main "supporters of the artistic boom in the Kingdom of Quito" Freile, C (2015). From this, some private and religious schools were opened.
