Learning Together Through Hands-On Experience

The Jenaplan School in Jena sees itself as a center of education for all children.

The educational institution is a specialized sports school that operates on a merit-based system.

The “Kaleidoskop” comprehensive school is a mandatory full-day school based on the progressive educational concept of the Jenaplan.

The Karl-Volkmar-Stoy School is a vocational school with a business focus and a European-oriented educational program.

The Kulturanum State Comprehensive School is an integrated full-day school with a focus on music and the arts, strongly guided by the Jenaplan approach, and offering all Thuringian high school diplomas.

At the LEONARDO School, which is based on progressive educational principles, students in mixed-age core groups practice promising, forward-looking learning strategies through a variety of instructional formats.

The guiding principle of “learning to live together” shapes our teaching and everyday school life.

In a child-friendly environment, we create a varied school day using both tried-and-true traditional methods and new, open, didactic-methodological approaches to learning. We work according to a performance-enhancing philosophy designed to help students discover their gifts and talents.
