[2. Upper Military Houses of Education.]
These, twelve in number, form a continuation to the Lower Houses of Education, the pupils from which are admitted here at the close of their eleventh year.
At this age foundation pupils of every kind, as also paying pupils, may be admitted immediately from their parents’ homes, only, however, into the first year’s course, and after passing an examination in the subjects taught in the Lower Houses of Education, to the same extent up to which they are taught in the second class of the ordinary elementary school.
The claim to a military place in an Upper House of Education, is similar to that for a military place in a Lower House of Education.
The number of pupils is fixed at 200 in each Upper House of Education, divided in like manner into four yearly courses.
The command is intrusted to a Captain, who is aided, for purposes of instruction and superintendence, by—
2 Subaltern Officers.
1 House Chaplain.
1 Army Surgeon.
