State Female College in Piotrków in the First Years of Its Activity (1916–1919). On the Centenary of Its Establishment

Summary/Abstract: State Female College in Piotrków was established in 1916 in the period of Austrian occupation. In the first years of its activity it operated on the basis of rules formulated for four – grade Galician colleges. Its purpose was to prepare pedagogical staff for primary schools, especially the country ones. A four-grade training school was also established as part of the college so that future teachers could acquire practical skills for their jobs. The college developed perfectly its educational activity. It also took care of the financial situation of its students. Moreover, the school engaged in interesting extracurricular activities. The whole town benefited greatly from the fact that the college existed there. Initially, the majority of the college teachers, like the head teacher Phd Jan Magiera, came from Galicia. They actively participated in educating and training the teaching staff of the Piotrków region. The first school leaving exam was taken in the college in June 1919. After twenty years, the college finished its activity in 1936. Altogether 397 qualified female teachers left the college.
