Abstract
The objective of the article is to briefly present the functioning of the education system in Romania under the leadership of the Romanian Communist Party. This article tries to capture in general terms the structure and functioning of schools during the first part of the communist regime, i.e. during the period 1947–1965. There were two distinct periods that marked the evolution of pre-university education: 1947–1955 and 1956–1965.The first period was characterised by the adaptation of the Soviet model, made concrete by the adoption of the education law of 1948, which laid the foundations for a secular education system, coordinated entirely by the Romanian state authorities. In the second period, an attempt was made to break away from the Soviet model and restore Romanian education to a structure close to the interwar one. The achievements were significant (many schools were built, the enrollment and attendance of students in elementary and secondary schools increased, as well as the elimination of illiteracy), but the politicisation and control of the education system by the communist regime was permanent throughout this period.
