Do I need to know French already when I start at this school?
No, that’s not necessary. We focus on learning it very intensively at school.
And what if I have problems with French?
There are extra support lessons for that, and there’s also ‘Etude’.
Etude? What’s that?
It’s the after-school care programme from 1 pm to 5 pm.
And what other foreign languages can I learn here?
English from Year 6, Spanish or Latin from Year 8. You can also learn Italian here.
And what if I don’t know how to cope with my homework, all the tests and all the studying?
We have special training days as early as Year 5 – for example, ‘Study Skills’ – where we’re shown how to organise ourselves.
That’s good to know. But what if I have problems with my new classmates?
Then it’s best to go to the mediators. They’re older pupils who’ve been trained as mediators. And what’s more, through the ‘Growing Up’ programme, we learn to keep our cool and stand up for ourselves. There’s also Team Harmony, which is fully committed to combating bullying and carries out specific measures to raise awareness, prevent bullying and provide support.
Are there any activities for children who find learning particularly easy and therefore sometimes get bored?
Yes, there is a course for gifted pupils. It covers topics that are not dealt with in lessons.
