The Story Of The Founder Of The First Girls’ School In Iran
After this meeting, Azmudeh opened the first Iranian school for girls in Iran, called the Namus school (after Namus, roughly honor). She ran the school in her home in Tehran, where she taught twenty girls. As it was not a state-run school, Azmudeh was responsible for protecting it herself. She and her pupils received considerable criticism from the community and the government.
