Our private school in Berlin Zehlendorf is housed in a listed building in the nice and green south-western area of Berlin. Our bilingual campus houses a nursery, primary and secondary school all under one roof. Here we offer a German-English community for about 500 children and young people aged 1 to 18 years.

At present, there are about 150 students in our Secondary School.

We seek to maintain a cosmopolitan, warm and welcoming environment. We very much enjoy and promote the familiar atmosphere we have created right from the start in 2008.

Teaching takes place in accordance with the immersion method, meaning that all content is delivered exclusively in either German or English depending on the subject and teacher. Therefore, students have to be able to speak both languages.

In general, it is possible to transfer from a German-speaking Primary School or a German-speaking Secondary School to our bilingual Secondary School. 

Entry into our 7th grade is also possible with standard English language skills (normal school English), provided good to very good academic performance in the main subject English and in the remaining main subjects German and Maths (language skills according to the European Framework of Reference for Languages B2 in German or B1-B2 in English). It is still possible to change in higher classes in accordance with these requirements. The earlier this changeover step is implemented, the sooner students can continue their bilingual education and improve their respective language skills. Beyond the academic prerequisites, the children should have a great interest and pleasure in a language-emphasised educational profile. After all, at our Secondary School the language is not only spoken, but also lived every day in a multicultural environment. This means that the children in our bilingual school community learn from each other in the lessons of native-speaking teachers as well as in the break times and afternoon activities. This is why they very quickly adapt to the language level of the already bilingual children; almost like a student exchange.
