Intermediate - 2 years in the middle


Intermediate schools were first opened in 1922. They were called Junior High Schools and most were attached to secondary schools. In 1933 the term Intermediate School was officially used . Intermediate school pupils and those in Forms 1 and 2 in primary schools received what was called Manual Training. Pupils had no choice about following the sexist role. Girls studied cooking and boys went to woodwork. Girls were taught sewing in their primary school classes, but all the sewing was done by hand.
