During the Spanish Regime, the education was focused on religion and they were taught

by missionaries. It was imposed by the Spaniards to spread Catholicism and train the
Filipinos for these practices. In addition, girls and boys have separate schools and
curriculum back then. Some of the schools for males during that time were the Colegio
Maximo de San Ignacio, College of San Idelfonso, and Ateneo de Municipal. The males’
curriculum includes Spanish history, rhetoric, latin, and civil law. While for the females, some
of their schools were Colegios of Santa Potenciana, Sta. Isabel, and Sta. Rita College. The
females’ curriculum includes music, language, and sewing.

During Spanish regime, there were different types of government. The first one is the
national government which includes the Governor General, Visitador, and Residencia. The
Governor General was appointed by the Spaniards to serve as our representative. He is the
chief executive in the whole archipelago and has the power of cumplace, which is the power
to decide whether a royal decree must be established or not. There are also Visitador and
Residencia to observe and check the administration of the Governor General. The next one
is the Provincial Government which was headed by the Alcalde mayor. It was stated that the
Alcalde mayor was the most corrupt official during that time because they were responsible
for the trading management. They would often buy products in low price and sell them at
high price. The municipal government has Gobernadorcillo as the highest official, which has
the same duties as the governor general but is only limited to his town. The last one is barrio
government wherein it was headed by Cabeza de barangay, which has the same
responsibilities as the Gobernadorcillo but is limited to their barangays.
