Meer Uitgebreid Lager Onderwijs

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hendrik MULO in Paramaribo (1947)

Meer Uitgebreid Lager Onderwijs (Dutch, "more advanced primary education") was during part of the twentieth century a level of education in the Netherlands, Suriname and the Dutch East Indies.[1][2] The system was comparable with the junior high school level in the US education system. Its successors were the mavo and vbo, now both replaced by vmbo.

In Suriname, MULO was a four year program. It was split into MULO-A which was focused on business and MULO-B which was focused on science. After graduating, students could move onto three-year VWO leading to university or a two-year HAVO leading to higher vocational training.[3] In 2021, it waswas replaced with "voortgezet onderwijs"[4] in Suriname.
