Phorms Education: Phorms Education is a private, internationally-minded school located in the tranquil small town of Steinbach, set in the foothills of the Taunus Mountains. Steinbach is only 20 minutes from Frankfurt city centre, in the Hesse region of West-Central Germany. We offer whole-day bilingual education in German and English for kindergarten, primary school & secondary school children. Phorms Education also has another campus in Frankfurt City which offers bilingual primary school education.
The small-town atmosphere of Steinbach is a perfect match for our warm and family ethos and is one of many reasons why students enjoy attending the school so much. Our campus in Steinbach is set in the very heart of nature and provides our students with sufficient space to play and run around. The tranquil and rural surroundings create the ideal atmosphere for concentrated learning. We attach great importance to the healthy development of the children. Our students have plenty of opportunities to pursue outdoor activities, explore nature and get involved in sport.
We work together with the farmers whose fields border the school. There is an ecological farm at which students learn about what happens in the various seasons of the year. They also taught how to develop their own gardens and help with the harvest and looking after the animals.
Several sporting venues are located in the direct proximity of the school, including a three-pitch sports hall offering facilities for tennis, volleyball, handball, football and other sports. We strive to achieve cooperation with our neighbouring sports and fitness park.
