VOLKSSCHULE
:''For other similar school systems, see Folkeskole''
A '''Volkschule''' was an eighteenth century system of state-supported primary schools established in the Habsburg Austrian Empire. Attendance was supposedly compulsory, but a 1781 census reveals that only one fourth of the school-age children attended. At the time, this was one of the only examples of state-supported schooling.
Today, ''Volksschule'' is the Austrian equivalent to the German word ''Grundschule'' and the Swiss German word ''Primarschule'', i.e. primary school.
