Can someone help me out with the Ancient Greek terminology for SCHOOL.
 
A quick search turned up the following words:
 
DIDASKALEION -- school, teaching place
GRAMMATEION -- school, place where GRAMMATA were taught
PAIDAGWGEION -- room where PAIDAGWGOI waited for their pupils
SCOLEION -- school
 
Do different terms signal different stages of schooling? If so, which
words for which stages?
 
 
Thanks
Kevin
