Who attended the schools in ancient Sumer and what were the schools like?

In ancient Sumer, schools primarily attended by boys from wealthy families were known as "edubbas" or tablet houses. These institutions focused on teaching writing, mathematics, and various subjects essential for administrative roles, using cuneiform on clay tablets. The curriculum emphasized discipline and memorization, often involving harsh punishments for misbehavior. Girls typically did not receive formal education, although some may have been educated at home.
