How to use "Of the old school" in context?
When people think of school, they usually think of modern buildings and methods of learning. However, some of the oldest schools in the world still operate using traditional methods. These schools are known as "of the old school."
The oldest school in the world is the Oriental Academy of Parthia, which was founded in 342 BC. Schools using traditional methods have been around for longer than schools that use modern methods. Schools that use modern methods were developed in the 19th century and were designed to improve the education of children.
