Dedicated educators, green outdoor classrooms, holistic education, excellent career and study preparation, digital infrastructure, digital curricula and all-day opportunities without end, contribute every day to students feeling in the best of hands at our institutions. With us, the joy of learning and the spirit of research thrive through shared experience and experimentation.
We place special emphasis on bilingual education with native speakers from over 30 nations. This makes it possible for our students to obtain internationally recognized foreign language certificates and to participate in language excursions abroad.
The intensive cooperation between parents and students, education providers and school administrators, partners, entrepreneurs, local authorities and sponsors enables school education at the highest level. The many awards, certifications and seals of approval are impressive proof of this.
In accordance with the Saxon education and curriculum, supported by international guidelines and scientific findings, our pupils are made fit for life and global competition. They are helped in this by new forms of learning, performance comparisons between the schools in our network and other Saxon schools, creative competitions and extensive additional offers. One of the special features of our schools is that business knowledge is taught at an early stage: Practical relevance is continuously provided by annual company internships lasting several days, practical work experience in a wide range of trades, taking the Entrepreneur's Driving Licence or taster days at study institutions.

We don't learn for school, we learn for life! Therefore, in addition to the Saxon curriculum, we have changing modules that make the students fit for their later lives. We offer maximum practical relevance through topics such as financial coaching, programming, presentation, craft activities, healthy nutrition and many other areas.
We offer musical, artistic and cultural education across all grades. In seasonal and regional performances, we not only show our skills, but also our social commitment in the region. A detailed list of the points is available at 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 have a wide variety of sports on our programme, but also regularly take part in extracurricular competitions, thus promoting cohesion and team spirit.
* Course formation from a minimum of 10 students per course.
The following is an exemplary representation of the structure of our Fit for Life programme.
The contents are subject to a certain dynamic and are adapted according to the development of our time.
Since 2019, our secondary schools and grammar schools have had the action-oriented and contemporary self-learning time for all pupils, known as SLZ or 80+10 for short. Of the 90 minutes of a double lesson, 10 minutes are now reserved to deal with topics outside the pure teaching of the material, for example, for complex, interdisciplinary and/or inter-class projects. This is a new form of teaching, processing and grasping material. Students work out their learning material independently and gain independence and personal responsibility.
We would like to provide each and every one of our pupils from grade 2 onwards with their own notebook at a reasonable price, which will be their personal work tool. We have decided on a uniform, universally usable 2-in-1 device (laptop and tablet), which fulfils all the requirements of a modern digital everyday teaching life. A notebook that can be used both electronically and with a pen, which contains electronic textbooks, has access to the school cloud (LernSax) and contains all the applications that are necessary in everyday school life. We will provide special support for families with several children or limited financial resources!
