The museum was opened due largely to teachers' increasing awareness of their profession and national background. The idea originally came from Jacob Dimnik, a primary school teacher from Ljubljana who endeavoured to establish an institution presenting the history of schools and the work of teachers in Slovenia. On the 50th anniversary of Emperor Franz Joseph's reign, 2 August 1898, the Slovene Teachers' Association held its annual general meeting at which it was agreed to open a teaching aids exhibition and establish a Museum of Slovene Education. Because the museum was dependent on teachers' organisations for financial support and there was no regular funding for its maintenance, its core activities were hindered, and the museum had to move across Ljubljana several times. Finally in 1938 a Museum of Slovene Education was established. The museum's primary role, defined in 1938, is that of collecting materials on the history of primary and secondary schools operating within Slovene territory. This basic concept was revised in 1951, dividing the museum into three separate units, the collection of exhibits, library, and archives and documentation. At that time the museum also began to undertake research into those institutions dealing with education. In 1960 the museum was renamed the Documentation Centre for the History of Schooling. At the same time, the documentation unit was separated from the archives.

The museum changed its location several times and was dissolved in 1912 due to irregular funding.
  
Today's Slovene School Museum still adheres to the work programme conceived more than 10 years ago, but its activities have become much more diverse and varied. Educational activities such as lectures and workshops intended for youth have become significant to the museum’s development. In the more than 100 years of its existence the Slovene School Museum has acquired a large collection of exhibits and materials on the history of schools and pedagogy in Slovenia. Its highly-qualified staff no longer only collect and conserve museum exhibits, but also study and exhibit such items and undertake research on the history of education. Especially interesting among the museum's exhibits and materials are the collections of ‘black and golden books’, including notebooks, certificates, teaching aids, annual school reports, stereoscopic pictures, photographs of school buildings and classrooms, school equipment (desks, chairs, blackboards) and stationery.

Founded in 1898, the Slovene School Museum is the oldest specialised museum in Slovenia. It contains a permanent display on the development of the educational systems and training processes in Slovenia as well as among Slovene emigrants up to 1991. Visitors can attend "class lessons" in calligraphy, good behaviour, or arithmetic from around 1900. The museum also prepares thematic temporary exhibitions. A part of its permanent exhibition is currently under construction.

In 2022 the Slovene Sports Museum became a part of the Slovene School Museum.



Background

The museum was opened largely due to teachers' increasing awareness of their profession and national background by the initiative of Jakob Dimnik. On the 50th anniversary of Emperor Franz Joseph's reign, 2 August 1898, the Slovene Teachers' Association held its annual general meeting at which the Slovene School Museum was established. The museum changed its location several times and was dissolved in 1912 due to irregular funding.

In 1938, it was re-established as the Museum of Slovene Education in order to collect materials on the history of primary and secondary schools operating within the Slovene territory. This basic concept was revised in 1951, dividing the museum into three separate units, the collection of exhibits, a library, and archives and documentation. At that time, the museum also began to undertake research into those institutions dealing with education. In 1960, the museum was renamed as the Documentation Centre for the History of Schooling. At the same time, the documentation unit was separated from the archives.

Collections

The museum library manages a library collection of more than 60,000 units, with some precious antiquarian educational books from the 18th and 19th centuries, and even a few incunabula, such as Rudimenta grammatices. The archives and documentation department manages a collection of old documents, photographs, slides, audio and video material.

Especially interesting among the museum's exhibits and materials are the collections of "black and golden books", including notebooks, certificates, teaching aids, annual school reports, stereoscopic pictures, photographs of school buildings and classrooms, school equipment (desks, chairs, blackboards), and stationery.

Exhibitions

The museum houses a permanent exhibition on Education in Slovenia over the Centuries until 1991. Literature, models, maps, tables, and different teaching items are on display, as well as a slide show presenting different school buildings, a video projection of school motives, and live presentations of various school lessons from the times of our (great-)grandparents. There is also a lesson taught in English.

Several thematic (usually traveling) exhibitions on school and the history of education are prepared every year, among them, Accessible and Noble – 200 Years of Public Music Schooling in Slovenia, The Periodic System in School, Protestant Education in the Slovene Territory, School Radio through the Time, School Fashion in Photos, Schooling in the Illyrian Provinces, and How Shall I Dress for School? on past clothing habits and regulations.

Publications

Since 1992, the Slovene School Museum publishes School Chronicle (Šolska kronika), the only Slovene periodical dealing with the history and traditions of Slovene teachers, teacher associations, and the Slovene school system (in Slovenian and English). The temporary exhibitions are accompanied by rich and informative catalogues. In addition, the museum's website includes many relevant links to related museums and associations to help gain a grasp of (the history of) schooling in the wider region.

Symposium 2013

The 15th International Symposium on School Life and School History Museums & Collections was organised in Ljubljana in June 2013 by the Slovene School Museum, the Union of Historical Societies of Slovenia and International Council of Museums (ICOM), Slovenia.
