Meer Uitgebreid Lager Onderwijs (Dutch, "more advanced primary education") was during part of the twentieth century a level of education in the Netherlands, Suriname and the Dutch East Indies.[1][2] The system was comparable with the junior high school level in the US education system. Its successors were the mavo and vbo, now both replaced by VMBO.
