The Hollandsch Inlandsche Kweekschool, often abbreviated as HIK, were a type of Christian Dutch language auxiliary teacher training schools for Indonesian students in the Dutch East Indies in the early twentieth century. There were other types of teacher training schools in the Indies, including Hoogere Kweek School which trained teachers at a higher level, and Taman Siswa and Muhammadiyah schools which were outside of the colonial system and affiliated with the Indonesian nationalist movement. Because the HIK schools were more accessible than other forms of European education for native Indonesians, a number of figures who later rose to prominence in the late colonial and early independence era were educated in HIK schools.
