Demographics of the Colonial Period

By 1775, the population of the thirteen colonies had grown to 2,500,000. The settlers in each colony had a profound impact on the development of schools and education at this time.

**New England Colonies ** These colonies were settled mainly by the Puritans who were of English descent. Because of their strong religious values and beliefs, religious instruction pervaded the curriculum for students. Also, the Puritans believed that children, as well as adults, should learn to behave. Therefore, Puritan children were held to strict codes of behavior while at school.

**Mid-Atlantic Colonies ** The mid-Atlantic colonies were much more diverse in population than were the New England colonies. Immigrants here English, Dutch, Irish, Scotch-Irish, and German. Because of this diversity and the diversity of religious beliefs, there was no common school system based on faith or religious practices. Instead, each group created its own schools which promoted its own culture, religion, and traditions. One such group was the Quakers in Pennsylvania. They believed that the general population should be educated. They lead in developing the first public school.

**Southern Colonies ** Southern society was dominated more by social class than religion. The southern planters were quick to create an educational system primarily for their sons. Their daughters were educated for more lady-like concerns like weaving, needlepoint, and dancing. Children from poor families were rarely educated or only received a minimal education. Slaves were not educated other than enough to serve their masters.
