Our secondary
grammar school offers 4-and-5 year education. Students come to learn from
the town and its surroundings. There are science, arts, English and
environmental-protection classes.
The
history of our school
1st period: 1927-1945
The idea of establishing the
school came up already before World War I. becasuse the youth could only
have further education in Eger, Gyöngyös, Budapest and Aszód.
The newspapers also dealt
with the question. However the Minister of Education was against the
proposal because they were afraid of increasing the number of educated
people who couldn’t find
proper workplaces.
The Minister gave permission
to establish the school provided the town of Hatvan supports it. First
the school was called Hatvani Magyar Királyi Állami Reáliskola (Hungarian
Royal State Science Grammar School of Hatvan) and 8 years later Hatvani
Magyar Királyi Állami Klebelsberg Kunó Gimnázium (Hungarian Royal State Klebelsberg
Kunó Grammar School of Hatvan).
The school needed good
headmasters and staff.
2nd period1945 -
1946 is the year when
significant changes occured. Primary schools took over the first two
years. The first students’ hostel
opened and girls studied together with boys. In Selyp a branch school was
started for workers to provide their teaching. In 1948 the school got a
new name: Bajza József.
In the ’50s besides
the regular teaching, correspondence and evening classes were started. In
the ’60s policy of education declared the objective of making
secondary education general which resulted in an increase in the number
of students. In 1967 another grammar school and a vocational training
school opened in Hatvan.
In 1969 the first secondary
medical training began with two classes in each year. The evening classes
were stopped this year.
The building was modernized,
in 1975 a new student hostel and a sports ground were built.
During the time when Mrs Éva
Farkas was the headmistress the elective system with optional subjects was
organized and a computer room was developed.
In 1992 a new, six-year
class system was started. The correspondence courses were stopped and
only one medical class was started each year. Instead of this course
there is another one at a higher level for those who take the final exams.
