The schools for negro children did not receive the same financial help that white schools did , this resulted in a lack of facilities and resources. Black teachers were not allowed to work in Schools for White children. In schools for black children classes were overcrowded as there was not an adequate number of schools to cater for the black population, their schools were under funded by the state government, so it was under the states discresion how much money should be spent on negro schools, there were no actual laws set by government. Black teachers were not as qualified as white teachers, as Black people didn't have as good standard of education as white People.
