Summary/Abstract: This article examines the educational landscape in the Bitola Vilayet based on Ottoman archival documents from 1859 to 1912. We analyze key features of primary and high school education in the Bitola Vilayet, including the programs of Muslim primary schools, the representation of Patriarchal and Exarchal Christian primary schools, and the construction or renovation dates of Christian primary schools. In the realm of high school education, we explore the numerical distribution of first-level high schools (rushdiye) and advanced high schools (idadiye) within the Bitola province, highlighting construction years, educational programs, and student enrollments. This study sheds light on a significant aspect of the Ottoman society from the second half of the 19th century to the early 20th century.
