Abstract

In this research, a historical overview of the major aspects of education policy in Iran has been evaluated throughout three periods: ancient Persia, Islamic, and post-Islamic revolution. These time frames indicate three key events: the growth of the Persian Empire, the Arab invasion, and the start of the modern period (Hayati & Mashhadi, 2010). This paper includes only the main features of each era, as well as Iran's foreign language policy. The changes that occurred and the outcomes of such adjustments, as well as the depiction of the current system, are also offered. Furthermore, the article demonstrates how changes in the education system impacted the country's formal language, Persian. The impact of the country's political structure on its language is also emphasized.
