Hume’s concept of combining public and private collaboration to advance education remains sound and useful. Hume's serious and honest efforts were the reason that during his tenure, primary education on contemporary terms achieved a high point. By the time he departed Etawah, there were 32 schools operating by 1856, 142 by 1863-1864 and a sizable student body was enrolled in them. The circumstances under which he made it happen, rather than the quantity of schools opened or pupils enrolled during his period, are what make his efforts so tremendous. According to Brahandeo Mishra's A History of Secondary Education in Uttar Pradesh, "The upheaval of 1857 greatly hindered rather paralyzed the educational activities in the NW Provinces." Due to the home government's prohibitive regulations that were put in place during the revolution, education spending had stopped until 1861.
