The Hoogere Burgerschool (HBS) was one level below the Gymnasium (Grammar School), which was the highest level. The HBS also had a more modern curriculum compared to the Gymnasium, so it was preferred for those pursuing technical and economic educations. The educational system in the Netherlands was changed in the 1960s, so there is no HBS anymore.
