Curriculum:
Our students are taught bilingually according to the immersion concept (German-English). We follow the German curriculum of the Federal State Of Berlin and international curricula: the “Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum” at Nursery, the Cambridge International Primary Programme (CIPP) in the subjects English, mathematics and science at Primary and the Advanced Placement Programme at Secondary School. At the end of their career, students may get the Advanced Placement International Diploma, the German MSA and the German Abitur.
We believe that it is important for children to be able to develop topics themselves and present their ideas bilingually. The main focus is on the joy of learning. For this reason, we also take music and the performing arts extremely seriously. Both these subjects are taught by specialist staff. Our artistic programme also extends beyond the classroom. Students sing in the afternoon choir, learn to play musical instruments or enjoy drama. The children stage theatrical performances on a regular basis.
Our school is open from 7.30 am to 6.00 pm. Before and after the lessons, students may attend our day care centre with an exciting afternoon programme. We also offer a comprehensive holiday programme.
Location:
Our school is located in a historical area right next to Monroe Park in the idyllic Zehlendorf district of Berlin. It is situated in leafy surroundings whilst also being located in a major city and combines the benefits of both these aspects. We make regular use of the cultural amenities Berlin has to offer by undertaking a wide range of excursions within the scope of our project-related teaching. The suburban location of our campus also provides the ideal conditions for quiet and concentrated work as well as offering sufficient space for play and opportunities for trips into the immediate natural environment.
