Yes, matriculation was a Certificate of Education to enable a University education, a bit like GCSE only I am quite sure it was a lot more difficult. I have a cousin who remembers she didn't. ;-)

I suppose it could have had a different meaning back in the 1800s and been utilised when the right to Education became law in or about 1946.
