Founded in 1919, until 1967 it operated as an establishment for girls only. Currently its somewhat distinctive profile is marked by bilingual, Polish-German curriculum, complete with the Deutsches Sprachdiplom II exams.

The oldest and the most prestigious of them was the public Luisenschule. In the early 1919 the establishment was paralyzed by a conflict between German staff and the NRL delegate, Maria Swinarska, tasked with introducing instruction in Polish.[1] It is not clear whether the strife contributed to the future fate of the school. In May the Polish schooling board, Prowincjonalne Kolegium Szkolne, decided to break with the Luisian tradition, perceived as tantamount to Germanisation. In somewhat obscure circumstances the school was renamed after a medieval princess D\u0105br\u00f3wka;[2] the choice was supposed to underline patriotically Polish, anti-German and regional identity.[3] The institution commenced the schooling year of 1919\/1920 as Pa\u0144stwowa Uczelnia \u017be\u0144ska D\u0105br\u00f3wki. Until then most German staff had left, partially replaced by newly hired Polish teachers;[4] Maria Swinarska was nominated the new headmaster. Official ceremony emphasized re-launch rather than continuity; the 40-year-old premises taken over from Luisenschule were consecrated and following a solemn parade across the city the students joined erection of the Liberty Mound.[5] All paperwork, until mid-1919 conducted in German, was switched to Polish.  school used to be back-rightThe D\u0105br\u00f3wka School took over from Luisenwschule a large compound located at the Western side of the M\u0142y\u0144ska Street; it consisted of a front building, running along the street, and two large perpendicular buildings in the back, called the Northern One and Southern One; the backyard in-between was used as a sporting ground for PE lessons.[6] Though with no electricity and no central heating, the premises were in perfect running condition.[7] It seems that staff shortages were addressed fairly quickly, as in late 1919 there were 24 Poles among 35 teachers listed.[8] The school retained its female profile; an unspecified number of girls commenced education in Luisenschule, but completed it already in the D\u0105br\u00f3wka School.[9] Recruitment scale is not clear; the number of girls admitted in the very early 1920s ranges depending upon the source from 538[10] to above 1057.[11] A huge number of candidates triggered opening of a new similar female school in the \u0141azarz district, where some of the students admitted have been re-directed.[12]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4 Maria Swinarska (1880-1963)originated from the family of landholders, graduated with the Ursulines, initially taught at the Posen private school of Anastazja Warnka. Studied pedagogics in Breslau, but could find work when back in Posen; taught in Berlin and Niederschlesien. She was the first D\u0105br\u00f3wka headmaster, serving until 1933. During the Nazi rule she ran makeshift clandestine courses. Remained in touch with the school until the late 1950sEthnic composition of the girls is far from agreed; some authors claim that the Germans were in minority, others claim that they dominated; none of the sources consulted provides information on Jews, traditionally forming a significant fraction of the Luisenschule students.[13] The number of schooling groups slightly exceeded 30, some 2\/3 with instruction in Polish and 1\/3 in German.[14] Initially the school offered curriculum according to various teaching schemes and some sources claim that in fact there were five formulas co-existing: gymnasium, lyceum, high lyceum (seminar for teachers), practice unit (training ground for seminarians) and a so-called economy school (of unclear formula).[15] Given vastly different teaching modules, girls barely in teenage years might have mixed with young women.D\u0105br\u00f3wka School (1919-1939)[edit]  Social background of students[16]Throughout most of the interwar period D\u0105br\u00f3wka was one of two public[17] and one of five female high schools in Pozna\u0144 in general;[18] it was also the most prestigious one. The establishment was entirely Polish in terms of instruction language and general outlook. There is no information on groups with German, which must have disappeared in the early 1920s; later memoirs of Polish students only exceptionally refer to German colleagues. German textbooks and manuals were gradually being replaced with Polish ones. In terms of religion the school was clearly a Roman Catholic one and none of the sources notes presence of Protestant ministers. Until the late 1920s the overall number of students hovered around 800.[19] Once a neo-humanist division was set up in 1929[20] – since 1936 operational as entirely separate Pa\u0144stwowe Gimnazjum \u017be\u0144skie im. Klaudyny Potockiej[21] – the number of girls probably decreased slightly.  The key feature of the school’s history in the interwar period was gradual homogenization of the curriculum; both decades, but especially the 1920s, are marked by constant effort to standardize and unify the teaching formula. Starting the 1920\/21 schooling year the seminarian curriculum was being shorted by a year every schooling year; in parallel, also the practice school program was being reduced; both modules were closed in 1930 and from then on D\u0105br\u00f3wka did not educate teachers any more.[22] Similarly, the 10-year lyceum curriculum was being curtailed gradually.[23] It was the gymnasium module which started to dominate, though it was subject to change as well;[24] the so-called realgymnasium curriculum was limited and it disappeared entirely in the early 1930s.[25] Since then D\u0105br\u00f3wka adopted mostly a dual humanistic and neo-humanistic gymnasium profile; the latter differed due to emphasis on foreign languages. Once Gimnazjum Klaudyny Potockiej formally split off in the late 1930s D\u0105br\u00f3wka became a standard humanistic gymnasium.[26] The school premises underwent major refurbishment in 1928 and electricity was fully introduced.[27] The school boasted of having a modern meeting hall; it could have been used also as a chapel.[28] Since 1930 the school owned a standard;[29] it was also the year when the first Alumni Congress was held.[30] Irena Bobowska (1920-1942)originated from the military family. Due to poliomyelitis she used a wheelchair from early childhood. A student in D\u0105br\u00f3wka in the 1930s, heavily involved in charity activities. During the Nazi rule she entered conspiracy, engaged in editorial activities, logistics and leafleting. Arrested in 1940, she underwent Gestapo interrogation. Deprived of her wheelchair, in prison she moved to investigation and back to cell crawling. BeheadedRecruitment was based on entry exams; the girls wore black uniforms with a beret and white embroidery, the tuition fee was 110 z\u0142.[31] The mid-bourgeoisie families dominated, represented mostly by civil servants and to a lesser degree commerce.[32] There were two scouting units,[33]Sodality of Our Lady and a number of minor groups.[34]  At that time D\u0105br\u00f3wka, initially set up as a counter-offer to a Luisian tradition, started to claim the Luisenschule heritage. Exact motives are not clear, yet it seems that the board indented to bask in prestige of a hundred-year-old institution; in 1930 the school celebrated its centenary.[35] In 1933 the establishment acquired a rural estate in Czernice in the Zielonka Forest, destination of frequent holiday trips later on.[36] The school operated until the German conquest of Pozna\u0144 in 1939; initially the premises hosted Wehrmacht units, later they were handed over to Frauendienst.[37]Female school in People’s Poland (1945-1967)[edit]  During the war[38] at least 11 students were killed by the Germans.[39] When most of Pozna\u0144 was seized by the Red Army yet with the German troops still holding out in the Citadel, some teachers approached the nascent Polish administration about re-opening of the school;[40] few days later the M\u0142y\u0144ska premises were almost entirely destroyed during the final phase of the battle. An attempt to seize a non-school building still standing on the former Luisenschule plot proved unsuccessful.[41] Following a brief period when the school operated jointly with the Potocka College[42] and once a formal decision to re-open the school had been adopted,[43] recruitment took place in the former Chamber of Commerce building.[44] In 1945-1948 D\u0105br\u00f3wka was hosted in premises of Pa\u0144stwowe Liceum Pedagogiczne,[45]Zamoyska College[46] and the former Colegium Marianum.[47] The school commenced the schooling year of 1948\/49 at Plac Bernardy\u0144ski, in the premises taken over from another college, shut down as hotbed of reactionary education.[48] At that time the heavily damaged building at M\u0142y\u0144ska Street was refurbished and turned into a dormitory for non-resident girls of Pozna\u0144 colleges.[49]  The school soon returned to pre-war scale; in 1946 there were 730 girls enrolled.[50] Initially education adhered to different formulas, resulting in age of students ranging from 11 to 28.[51] The curriculum was unified in 1948, when the establishment was formally turned from Pa\u0144stwowe Gimnazjum i Liceum \u017be\u0144skie into Szko\u0142a Og\u00f3lnokszta\u0142c\u0105ca Stopnia Licealnego. In line with the nationwide framework of an 11-year general education scheme, the establishment offered schooling in 4 highest grades.[52] Mounting political pressure introduced new rituals,[53] modifications of curriculum,[54] left-wing youth organizations[55] and staff changes,[56] which in the late 1940s resulted in totally new profile of the institution. It is not clear whether the school met expectations of the schooling board; on the one hand, control results were far from satisfactory[57] and there are news of some conspiracy groupings among the girls,[58] on the other, the school got Ministry of Education awards.[59] The new policy climaxed after 1954, when D\u0105br\u00f3wka was renamed to VII Liceum Towarzystwa Przyjaci\u00f3\u0142 Dzieci.[60] In wake of the 1956 political thaw both scouting[61] and religious instruction[62] re-appeared in school; in 1957 D\u0105br\u00f3wka returned to its traditional name.[63] Janina Kami\u0144ska (1903-1996)originated from the family of state officials. Since 1920 a student in D\u0105br\u00f3wka, since 1927 a teacher. During Nazi rule imprisoned for 2 years. In 1945 she was the moving spirit behind the re-opening of the school and became its first post-war headmaster. As the icon of pre-war tradition she was sacked by the authorities and removed to another college. Member of the Dominican lay order, 1971-1983 its head for Poland. Has never marriedIn the late 1950s political pressure was resumed;[64] in 1959 the school entered Association of Secular Schools,[65] in 1960 last scouting units disappeared[66] and religious instruction was terminated again.[67] The early 1960s are the period of post-war demographic peak; the number of girls exceeded 1,000 and the number of teachers reached 150.[68] The premises were entirely re-furbished in 1965; central heating replaced previous old-fashioned systems,[69] floors were re-done and electricity wiring got modernized;[70] a canteen was opened, though as there was no kitchen meals were delivered by contracted-out providers.[71] The mid-1960s is also the last period when the school enjoyed prestigious status; as centrally located and the oldest one in Pozna\u0144, it was frequently visited by officials and the girls used to represent the city youth at various state and local galas.[72]Standard format (1967-1994)[edit]  School premises 1948-1979In 1967 the school was affected by a nationwide education reform.[73] One change consisted of departing from upper tier of the 11-grade general education scheme, and replacing it with a 4-grade format of Liceum Og\u00f3lnokszta\u0142c\u0105ce (general education lyceum). Another change resulted from shutting down all female schools; it turned D\u0105br\u00f3wka into a mixed-sex school, the formula launched in the schooling year of 1967\/68.[74] The school was entirely re-formatted, especially that boys soon started to dominate; sporting[75] and education[76] successes, noted by the school at the turn of the decades, were accomplished mostly by male students.[77] As the standard no longer corresponded to the mixed-sex profile[78] it was withdrawn and none was used until a new one was officially introduced in 1973;[79] during a solemn ceremony there was also an anthem adopted.[80]  Right wing of the school building was heavily damaged by fire, which broke out in 1972. Since it proved unfeasible to complete refurbishment in parallel with usual education activities, some of the premises were shut down;[81] this in turn resulted in overcrowding. Both the school management and the local schooling board started to consider relocation of D\u0105br\u00f3wka to some other premises, perceived as a provisional or perhaps a permanent measure. In the mid-1970s it was planned to move the establishment to the Rataje district, where a new schooling compound was being constructed from scratch; however, in unclear circumstances in 1978 the buildings were allocated to a newly opened lyceum.[82] Later D\u0105br\u00f3wka was to move to another freshly-constructed settlement at Norwida Street in the Je\u017cyce district; eventually the site went to a primary school. The \u017beromskiego Street premises emptied by the latter were eventually marked for D\u0105br\u00f3wka. It is there that the school commenced the schooling year of 1979\/80.[83]  School premises since 1979The D\u0105br\u00f3wka history of the 1980s reflects the tumultuous history of the country. In 1980 the staff founded a branch of Solidarno\u015b\u0107 trade union;[84] in 1981 the students made sure that a cross presented to the school by the Pope was during a solemn ceremony[85] placed in the school foyer.[86] The cross was withdrawn into a locked “memory hall” in 1982; this in turn caused that flowers were laid and removed from its doors.[87] Some students were being detained during street riots or leafleting campaigns;[88] unofficial scouting was implanted as a Green Six team.[89] A large[90] December 13, 1985 gathering of students marking the 4th anniversary of martial law decree produced disciplinary measures, though no-one has been expelled.[91] In 1986 secret security operatives detained a student in the school building[92] while official launch of the 1986\/87 schooling year turned into a scandal.[93] In the late 1980s D\u0105br\u00f3wka became the nucleus of a sub-culture “Naszo\u015b\u0107” group.[94] The cross was placed back in the foyer in 1991;[95] in the new era changes among the managing board ensued.[96] An initiative which would prove of high importance later was the launch of a broadened curriculum of German in 1987; D\u0105br\u00f3wka commenced collaboration with a school from West Berlin, resulting in students\u2019 exchange starting the year of 1988.[97]Bi-lingual school and gymnasium (1994-2017)[edit]  Pozna\u0144 college youth, early 90sBanking on earlier enhanced German curriculum experience, in the 1994\/95 schooling year D\u0105br\u00f3wka opened a bi-lingual Polish-German unit; apart from a similar Polish-French one, operated by the Marcinkowski College, the initiative was a unique one in Pozna\u0144 and in the Wielkopolska region. The bi-lingual curriculum covered a 5-year scheme, including the 0 grade for oldest primary school students.[98] Its scope was systematically broadened; in the late 1990s the school embarked also on a number of programs financed by the Bundesrepublik and related to promotion of German culture and language. D\u0105br\u00f3wka commenced courses preparing for the Deutsches Sprachdiplom exam, which was for the first time offered in 1999; since then DSD II has been crowning the teaching of German in the school every year.[99]longest serving teachers[100]yearsnamesubjectperiod44Jadwiga Laskowskabiology1962-200640Irena Dropi\u0144skaforeign languages1919\u201339, 1945\u20136536Regina Framskachemistry1970-200636Wies\u0142awa Heisigmath1971-200735Krystyna Brodowskaforeign languages1972-200734Gabriela Ka\u017amierczykmusic1929\u201339, 1945\u20136931Zdzis\u0142awa SmuszkiewiczPolish1962-199331Stefania Pietruszankaforeign languages1919\u201339, 1945\u20135631Barbara Rataszewskaphysics1919\u201339, 1945\u20135630Maria PaszkiewiczPolish1960-1990Following a nationwide education reform of 1999 D\u0105br\u00f3wka was re-formatted into a 3-grade school and provided basis for setting up a 3-grade gymnasium, a phase in-between primary school and lyceum.[101] Both units commenced the schooling year of 2001\/02 as a joint Zesp\u00f3\u0142 Szk\u00f3\u0142 Og\u00f3lnokszta\u0142c\u0105cych nr 10. Though legally separate, the two institutions were hosted in the same building; in terms of operations and management they remained fairy integrated, sharing the same statute, pedagogical council, students\u2019 board and parents\u2019 board.[102] Following a plebiscite held among its students, the nameless gymnasium adopted the name of D\u0105br\u00f3wka in 2004[103] and received its own standard.[104] The year of 2002 saw birth of Stowarzyszenie Przyjaci\u00f3\u0142 Szko\u0142y im. D\u0105br\u00f3wki w Poznaniu,[105] an alumni association which since has been organizing their irregular gatherings.[106] Appointment of a new headmaster in 2007 marked a symbolic change; for the first time ever the post has been assumed by a male, and for the first time ever the vacancy was filled by means of public competition.[107] Refurbishment works carried out were modest; they consisted mostly of repairing damages caused by minor 1998 fire[108] and purchase of new equipment.[109]  In the early 21st century both sections of the D\u0105br\u00f3wka school systematically advanced their specifics \u2013 rendering them distinct from other Pozna\u0144 schools \u2013 by enhancing links to German culture and language. In 2005 for the first time some students completed education by taking bi-lingual matura exam; it has been offered since then every year until bi-lingual matura was scrapped nationwide by the Ministry.[110] Also in 2005 the school joined the Jugend Debattiert International program.[111] In 2009 Deutsches Sprachdiplom II exams were for the first time offered at B2 and C1 levels.[112] Around that time D\u0105br\u00f3wka engaged in Deutsch Wagen Tour scheme, co-organized internationally by Goethe-Institut, German embassies around the world and Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst .[113] Systematic co-operation was forged with Bundesrepublik colleges in the towns of Seelze, Karlstadt i Vreden.[114] In 2010 D\u0105br\u00f3wka was one of 26 bi-lingual Polish-German lyceum-type schools in Poland and one of 10 bi-lingual Polish-German gymnasium-type schools in the country;[115] apart from the lyceum in Leszno it was the only school of such type in the Wielkopolska region.[116]  Present day[edit]The D\u0105br\u00f3wka lyceum and the D\u0105br\u00f3wka gymnasium operated jointly until 2019; following another education reform, since 2017 the gymnasium formula was being phased out until the schools were shut down two years later. High schools returned to the 4-grade scheme, to be exclusive from 2022.[117] The college is formally managed by the municipality of Pozna\u0144, supervised by the regional schooling board; according to the financial report from 2018 its assets amounted to $1,44m.[118] The lyceum keeps posing as a school cultivating the Luisian tradition and dates its history not from 1919 but from 1830; this is the reading dominating also in local media.[119]headmastersfromtoname19191933Maria Swinarska19331934Irena Lipska19341939Cecylia \u015awiderk\u00f3wna19451948Janina Kami\u0144ska19481950Maria Iwanicka19501962Irena Czajkowska19621969Ludmi\u0142a Swinarska[120]19691991Zofia D\u0105bek19912007El\u017cbieta Stryjakowska2007Pawe\u0142 Koz\u0142owskiRecently there are some 135-155 students completing education in D\u0105br\u00f3wka every year.[121] Compared to other Pozna\u0144 colleges it is a mid-size school with some 450 students in all grades, much less than in Potocka College or Paderewski College, which open 8 groups every year and can accommodate 250 new candidates each.[122] In 2017 D\u0105br\u00f3wka offers 155 new seats in total, all divided among 5 sections profiled as focused on media, biology-chemistry, economy, engineering and bi-lingual Polish-German teaching, the latter divided into specialized sub-sections further on.[123] In terms of popularity among gymnasium graduates the school ranks mid-range. During recruitment for the 2017\/18 schooling year there were 1.08 candidates for every seat offered, compared to highest school average indicators in the city recorded by Zamoyska College (2.28), Mickiewicz College (1.83) and Paderewski College (1.54).[124] In case of D\u0105br\u00f3wka the toughest entry competition was recorded in the bi-lingual section (1.32) and in the biology-chemistry section (1.26).[125]  Few independent institutions in Poland compile nationwide ratings of colleges in terms of their educational performance; in these charts D\u0105br\u00f3wka usually ranks among mid-range schools in Pozna\u0144. According to the most popular Perspektywy analysis, among some 30 college-type schools in the city D\u0105br\u00f3wka was rated on position 8 (2012),[126] 7 (2013),[127] 12 (2014),[128] 12 (2015),[129] 9 (2016),[130] 9 (2017),[131] 10 (2018),[132] 13 (2019),[133] 11 (2020),[134] 9 (2021),[135] 8 (2022),[136] and 7 (2023).[137] The Wasza Edukacja rating evaluated D\u0105br\u00f3wka as the 10th (2017),[138] the 7th (2018),[139] the 6th (2019),[140] the 9th (2020),[141] the 6th (2021),[142] and the 7th (2022)[143] best high school in Pozna\u0144.Following the 2017 phase-out of the D\u0105br\u00f3wka gymnasium, which ranked much higher than the high school and served as a magnet for both units, the position of D\u0105br\u00f3wka lyceum on the educational market in Pozna\u0144 is not clear yet.[144] Its unique feature is the bi-lingual profile, linked to the DFD II exams offered;[145] in 2017 no college in the Wielkopolska region outperformed D\u0105br\u00f3wka in terms of German language matura results.[146] On the other hand, matura results in math, Polish, non-German modern languages and other subjects in D\u0105br\u00f3wka are visibly worse than in the best Pozna\u0144 colleges. Also, the school recorded only 5 prized places in nationwide college-level competitions during the last 10 years;[147] in comparison, the Mickiewicz College might boast of 29 prized places.[148]See also[edit]^ Zdzis\u0142awa Smuszkiewicz, Z dawnych dziej\u00f3w D\u0105br\u00f3wki w Poznaniu (1830-1939), [in:] Dorota \u017bo\u0142\u0105d\u017a-Strzelczyk, Justyna Gulczy\u0144ska (eds.), 180 lat Szko\u0142y im.

Initial plan had it that the entirely re-furbished and modernized Plac Bernardy\u0144ski premises would host either a regional library or a museum.
