military schools

Uniformed training academies

Military schools are educational institutions that incorporate military-style discipline, structure, and training alongside academic instruction.

Some prepare students for armed forces careers, while others use military frameworks to instill discipline in troubled youth: His parents sent him to military school after he got expelled.

The term covers everything from prestigious academies like West Point to boarding schools for adolescents.
