- Archival history:
- The fonds was held by the School Inspectorate of Maramureş county and was transferred to the Maramureş County division of the Romanian National Archives, where it was inventoried and made accessible to researchers.
- Administrative/biographical history:
- School Inspectorates were established in accordance with the Romanian law of elementary education from 1924 (the so-called Anghelescu law) in every county in order to coordinate and supervise the educational activity of county’s schools. This system functioned until 1940, when Northern Transylvania became part of Hungary and these institutions were reorganised in accordance with the Hungarian educational framework. In 1945 the Romanian inter-war structure became again valid until 1948 when the Communist regime introduced a comprehensive educational reform, which radically changed the composition, tasks and orientation of the local school inspectorates which were now subordinated to the goals of the Communist party and ideology.
