After-school care and learning needs

The preparatory Grade 0 is for ages 5–6 and does not require previous German. Entry uses a conversation and playful assessment of the child’s skills. The school prepares children for its bilingual first classes through language, movement and social learning. Completing Grade 0 does not guarantee entry to Grade 1: German progress and school readiness are assessed again. The published first-grade maximum is 25 children per class.
