This is the beginning of compulsory education. Most capitalist countries, such as Britain, France and the United States, implemented compulsory education after the 1970s.
The meaning of obligation includes the obligation of parents and families to make school-age children go to school, the obligation of the state to set up schools to promote learning so that citizens can enjoy education, and the obligation of the whole society to eliminate all kinds of adverse effects that hinder the sound development of school-age children.
In the European Reformation Movement in the16th century, Protestant countries advocated extensive education in order to promote religious education.
