Boarding School

Boarding Schools were established at the end of the 19th century. Their origin lay in the criticism of emphasis on just knowledge transfer in ordinary schools. Part of our concept is the special campus atmosphere, which, removed from the large city, permits a holistic education. The school is therefore not only a place of learning, but also a home for the students.

Who attends boarding school?

Foreign students who want to attain the German “Abitur” or are intensively focussed on learning the German language. At our boarding school, the strengths of the each individual student are significantly developed. This takes place much faster than in the state sector, because we address the existing weaknesses and, time and again, make impressive progress.

Campus life

Campus life is something special. This forms the real hub of study and life for the students. As boarding school students, they experience a family-like network of teachers, fellow students and tutors who make informed recommendations to students for their individual careers.
