Welcome to our private, state-recognised secondary school at Phorms Campus Berlin Mitte! At our school, children and young people enjoy a unique bilingual education within a small, international community. Together, we learn and grow in both English and German. For over 14 years, our highly qualified teachers have been successfully preparing students for Abitur, consistently achieving results well above the state average.
At our secondary school, we are proud to build on our proven bilingual concept, creating opportunities for students to thrive in an interconnected world. Our bilingual lessons not only strengthen language skills in German and English but also open doors to international cultures and perspectives.
With the addition of a second foreign language, such as Spanish or French, and recognised certifications like DELE, DELF, or Cambridge Advanced English, we prepare our students for global opportunities. Beyond academics, we offer a rich variety of extracurricular activities, such as participating in the Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award. This well-rounded approach equips our students with the skills, confidence, and mindset they need to succeed in a complex and networked future."
As a state-recognised school, we ensure that your child earns qualifications recognised both in Germany and internationally. This opens a world of opportunities - whether for further education or launching a global career.
Our dedicated teachers bring heart and passion to their lessons, teaching in their native language - German or English. This immersive approach allows your child to develop natural bilingual skills, leaving our school confident and fluent in both languages.
Our school offers two educational pathways tailored to your child's strengths and interests. Starting in Grade 5, we provide a bilingual science-focused secondary school for curious young minds already enrolled at Phorms. From Year 7, our bilingual secondary school is an exciting alternative for Phorms students as well as for children from other schools. Both pathways lead to the bilingual Berlin Abitur.
We prioritise uninterrupted, high-quality education for your child. In Years 5 to 10, we ensure that lessons run smoothly, even during teacher absences, with qualified substitute subject teaching.
For upper secondary school students, we’ve created a dedicated workspace for independent learning. This specially equipped area allows them to organise their free periods flexibly and prepare effectively for the challenges of Abitur and for future endeavours.
At our school, your child has a broad variety of courses to shape their own path to Abitur. They can choose two advanced courses from a diverse selection of eight subjects: English, Biology, Mathematics, Art, Geography, History, Political Education, and German.
In a supportive and inspiring learning environment, we nurture your child's interests and strengths, guiding them toward successful Abitur.
Your child will thrive in a modern digital learning landscape designed to meet the demands of a connected world. Starting in Year 5, tablets—and later laptops—are integrated into their education, along with tools like MS Teams and Office 365, all supported by high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the school.
Our dedicated IT team ensures seamless functionality, promptly addressing any technical issues so your child can focus entirely on learning. With this setup, we equip them with essential digital skills for success in today’s world.
Appreciation, open-mindedness, and participation are more than just ideals at our secondary school - they are values we live every day. We strive to show your child how these principles are essential for building a tolerant and inclusive society.
Our bilingual education in German and English opens doors to a globalised world. We help your child understand and appreciate cultural and linguistic diversity, value local traditions, and recognise global connections. Along the way, we foster independent thinking, encourage critical questioning, and provide the space for personal growth.
Together, we not only deepen their knowledge but also instill the values they need to confidently and respectfully find their place in the world and work toward a brighter future.
