There are many important junctures in the contemporary history of Iran; perhaps in the forefront is the issue of women's education. Over the country's history education was limited to males, and by virtue of the social and religious nature of the Iranian society that imposed sex segregation, and banned a woman going out of her home and her work or her education in the formal scientific institutions. But because of the emergence of an educated, enlightened class who was educated in European universities and took it upon themselves to bring up a generation capable of absorbing and keeping up with the course of scientific development prevalent in Europe. They were concerned about the fate and education of women, and tried to pick them up from their miserable reality. They strived to do that through the establishment of schools and women's associations and newspapers. Thus, the years after the Constitutional Movement since 1911 have witnessed a big leap in the area of opening schools, particularly after the issuance of compulsory education law in 1911, and the subsequent important measures in terms of education. During and after the First World War, Iran also experienced the opening of a large number of schools teaching females and they introduced new subjects focusing on applied and pure science, such as the science of astronomy, mathematics, arithmetic, and European languages, such as French and English, and this is evidence the vulnerability of Iran intellectual renaissance witnessed by Europe at the time.
