Description The paper presents the results of a diploma thesis, which discusses Trivial education in the Brno region at the end of the 18th century with an effort to contribute to the history of Moravian primary education. The research was based on a detailed analysis of school reports (the so called ‚,fassiones‘‘ in Latin) from the years 1787 to 1791, which arose on behalf of the regional school commissioner. The monitoring takes place during a period of several years after the introduction of compulsory schooling by Maria Theresa of Austria in 1774. Attention was paid to the amount of Trivial schools (the so called ,,Trivialschule‘‘ in German) and the development of the network in the region as well as the attendance of school by school-aged children, in regard to their gender, social and religious affiliation. An essential part of the thesis was the analysis of the evaluation of behavior, education and teaching methods of teachers, their assistants and catechists. At the end of the thesis, the condition of school buildings and their equipment in relation to the quality of trivial schools was taken into account. The achieved results were compared with older research of trivial education from the Bohemian regions.
