Abstract
This paper offers a review of the history of school system in the town of Grubišno Polje covering the time span from its earliest beginnings, which date back to the 19th century – the time of the Military Border, when the well-known poet Petar Preradović attented school, until the present. The research continues up to the period before World War One, when the first public Croatian school, where the first teacher was N. Kijurina, followed by V. Klemen, was opened. The development of education continued after World War One with the opening of the lower civic school, which corresponds to grades 5 to 8 of today’s primary school. Due to lack of historical evidence, from 1948 onwards, we only have records based on a book of memories of two citizens – Matija Čubelić and Jakob Novalić, which covers the period from the end of the 19th century to the schoolyear 1945-46, when a new mention of elementary school was made. After frequent changes of premises and turbulent war times, the new primary school – Bijela Labudica – was built in 1956. The development of secondary-school education in Grubišno Polje began in 1961-62 by the opening of a regional unit of the Daruvar Business School. Independent grammar school was founded in 1964. In the subsequent years, new professional schools were opened. This historical review may be concluded by a survey of the operation of the nursery school, which opened its doors in 1977. The research of the history of education in Grubišno Polje is based on historical evidence and archival materials of the local Ivan Nepomuk Jemeršić Primary School, Bartol Kašić Secondary School, and Tratinčica Nursery School.
