Plan of Study for Girls

Plan of Study for Girls was an educational curriculum devised in the 16th century by Juan Luis Vives for the education of girls, primarily for Princess Mary, daughter and then-heiress of Henry VIII of England and his first wife, Catherine of Aragon.[1] Juan Luis Vives' strong Christian beliefs greatly influenced the curriculum. Consisting of three books, "Which Treats of Unmarried Young Women", "Which Treats of Married Women", "On Widows". Vives' beliefs regarding gender roles which greatly influenced Princess Mary's curriculum, affect his relationship with King Henry VIII. Upon his disapproval of King Henry VIII's annulment of marriage to Catherine of Aragon, the two men had a falling out.
