Towards the end of the 18th century, the loose network of monastery schools in Ottoman-ruled Bulgaria began to change. Municipalities and local dignitaries became involved in its management in addition to the monks and priests who had been in charge of the separate schools until then. In the 1830s, the idea emerged to build a full-fledged education system across the Bulgarian lands. The initiative led to the adoption of the new Bell-Lancaster system, also known as the mutual instruction system. The Bell-Lancaster system began its journey to the Bulgarian territories from an orphanage in Madras (today's Chennai in India) at the end of the 18th century. Over the course of three decades, it became popular internationally and spread across five continents. In 1835, it was adopted by a school in Gabrovo (in today's central Bulgaria). The Mutual Instruction School in Koprivshtitsa became another major hub. These were the beginnings of a single education system in the Bulgarian lands which strengthened the people's national awareness, united them, and prepared them for intellectual and political independence from the Ottoman Empire.
