(a) Gymnasien, Progymnasien, Realprogymnasien, Oberreal- and Realschulen, Oberlyzeen as well as other institutions (Pädagogien etc.), except Vorschulen. We were unable to properly differentiate between private and public schools; the percentage of private schools was small, however (1911: 19.8%, 1921/22: 14.6%; 1938: 11%). Due to the smaller size of the private schools, the percentage of private school students was even lower (1938: 2.6%).

(b) Population at the midpoint of the (previous) year.
