Register your child at a secondary school
The Realschule comprises school years 5 to 10. Pupils receive an extended general education that goes beyond basic knowledge in all subjects. The focus is on independent learning and the teaching of different learning methods. As part of career orientation, pupils learn about professions and courses of study. Lessons at the Realschule consist of compulsory lessons as well as electives and optional lessons. A second foreign language (usually French) is offered as a four-hour compulsory elective course from year 6 onwards.
In years 9 and 10, the Realschule offers a practical vocational focus with career guidance and vocational training measures, foreign languages, economics, technology and health and social studies as well as preparation for attending the upper secondary school (gymnasiale Oberstufe).
The following qualifications can be obtained at the end of year 10:
- Secondary school leaving certificate I - Hauptschulabschluss
- Secondary school leaving certificate I - Realschulabschluss
Extended secondary school leaving certificate I, which entitles the holder to attend the upper secondary level at a grammar school, a comprehensive school or a vocational grammar school at a vocational college, among other things
