history

The first six Austrian institutions of this kind, which were intended to enable particularly talented children to attend a secondary school regardless of the income situation of their parents and where they lived, were founded in 1919 by Otto Gloeckel as state educational institutions at locations of earlier cadet schools and officer's daughter institutes and, from 1920 onwards, were constitutionally compliant federal educational institutions  (BEA) called. Originally they were directly subordinate to the Ministry of Education , so they belonged to the Zentrallehranstalten  (ZLA).

The four schools, which were re-established after the Second World War, were renamed as Federal Higher Boarding Schools (HIB) in 1976 and have been co-educational since 1982. Since the beginning of the 21st century, the respective state school boards have been responsible for the HIB as for other schools .
