Dedicated teachers, green outdoor classrooms, a holistic education, excellent vocational and academic preparation, digital infrastructure, digital curricula and endless all-day options all contribute every day to ensuring that pupils feel they are in the best of hands at our facilities. Here, the joy of learning and the spirit of research flourish through shared experiences and experimentation.
We place particular emphasis on bilingual education with native speakers from over 30 nations. This enables our students to obtain internationally recognized foreign language certificates and take part in language excursions abroad.
The intensive cooperation between parents and pupils, educational institutions and school management, partners, entrepreneurs, local authorities and sponsors enables school education at the highest level. The many awards, certifications and seals of quality are impressive proof of this.
Based on the Saxon education and curricula, supported by international standards and scientific findings, our pupils are made fit for life and global competition. New forms of learning, performance comparisons between the schools in our network and other schools in Saxony, creative competitions and extensive additional offerings help them to do this. One of the special features of our schools is the early teaching of business knowledge: Practical relevance is continuously provided through annual company internships lasting several days, practical work placements in a wide range of trades, taking the entrepreneurial driving test or taster days at study institutions.

We don't learn for school, we learn for life! That's why, in addition to the Saxon curriculum, we offer changing modules that prepare students for their future lives. We offer maximum practical relevance through topics such as financial coaching, programming, presentations, craftsmanship, healthy eating and many other areas.
We provide musical, artistic and cultural education across all grades and also across year groups. At seasonal and regional performances, we not only showcase our skills, but also our social commitment in the region. You will receive a detailed list of the points in the school.
The physical development of our pupils is also important to us. True to the motto: "fit body - fit mind". That's why we not only offer a wide range of sports activities, but also regularly take part in extracurricular competitions to promote team spirit and cohesion.
* Courses with a minimum of 10 students per course.
The following is an example of the structure of our Fit for Life program.
The content is subject to a certain dynamic and is adapted according to the development of our time.
Since 2019, our secondary schools and grammar schools have had activity-oriented and contemporary self-study time for all pupils, also known as 80+10 for short. Of the 90 minutes in a double lesson, 10 minutes are now reserved to deal with topics outside the pure teaching of subject matter, for example for complex, interdisciplinary and/or cross-class projects. This is a new form of teaching, processing and grasping material. Pupils work through their learning material independently and gain independence and personal responsibility.
We would like to provide each of our pupils from Year 2 onwards with their own notebook at a reasonable price, which will be their personal work device. We have opted for a standardized, universally usable 2-in-1 device (laptop and tablet), which meets all the requirements of a modern digital classroom perfectly. A laptop that can be used to write both electronically and with a pen, contains electronic textbooks, has access to the school cloud (LernSax) and contains all the applications that are necessary for everyday school life. We will provide special support for families with several children or limited financial resources when purchasing a notebook!
