The Realschule is a challenging and performance-oriented school. It prepares students for demanding vocational apprenticeships, but also for transfer to the upper school of the grammar school or to a vocational baccalaureate school. It comprises grades six through nine. Approximately 50 percent of students are admitted to the Realschule each year.

The following compulsory subjects are taught at the Realschule:

• German
• English
• French
• Mathematics
• Nature and technology
• Economics, work, household
• Spaces, times, societies
• Ethics and religions
• Life skills and vocational orientation

• Music
• Exercise and sports
• Media and Computer Science

Integrated into various subjects:

Classes are taught by subject teachers. Each class is assigned a teacher for supervision and leadership tasks (class teacher or class teacher).

In the spring of the 8th grade, the class teachers of the secondary schools conduct a detailed assessment with all parents and students. As part of this assessment, the possible transfer to the upper secondary school as well as the goals with regard to vocational training are discussed and the individual focus for the 9th grade is jointly determined. This stage is designed more individually in order to prepare the students for the most successful transfer possible.

After the fourth grade, students in secondary schools can go on to a vocational baccalaureate school, a business school or a diploma school. There is also the option of attending the voluntary 10th grade
