Note: Private schools, usually for girls, that emphasized training in domestic skills, cultural behavior, and social activities, allowing young ladies of certain social classes to be "finished" prior to their introduction into the traditional adult female role in polite society. In addition to limited training in general education, finishing schools typically taught subjects such as manners, posture, needlework, drawing, meal planning, wardrobe planning, the art of conversation, supervision of child care, singing, dance, etc.

| Dutch ..... Particuliere scholen, meestal voor meisjes, met voornamelijk opleidingen in huishoudelijke vaardigheden, cultureel gedrag en sociale activiteiten, zodat jonge dames van bepaalde sociale klassen klaar zijn voor de traditionele rol van volwassen vrouwen in beschaafde gemeenschappen. Naast een beperkt onderwijs in algemene kennis worden op finishing schools voornamelijk zaken aangeleerd als goede manieren, houding, handwerken, tekenen, maaltijdplanning, kledingplanning, conversatietechnieken, toezicht op kinderopvang, zang en dans. |
