- Administrative/biographical history:
- This was organised in February 1919 pursuant to a decree of the Ukrainian Provisional Workers’ and Peasants’ Government of 25 January 1919. Originally called the Odessa Provincial Department of Education, it was renamed the Education Inspectorate in November 1923. It was immediately subordinate to the Ukrainian SSR People’s Commissariat of Education, and in turn had oversight of county education departments (until 1923), and later of area education inspectorates. It was dissolved in August 1925 upon the liquidation of provinces as administrative units.
