Everyday primary school life
Lively and full of joyful learning

A reliable daily rhythm gives children a sense of security. At the same time, our structured school day allows space for curiosity, community and personal development. At our primary schools in Heilbronn and Erlenbach, children experience not only varied lessons in German and English, but also creative activities – with a healthy balance between active play and quiet time.

Our educational
focus

Educational plan and curriculum

Our primary schools in Erlenbach and Heilbronn follow the official curriculum of the state of Baden-Württemberg, which we enrich with additional materials from English-speaking countries. Through immersive teaching in both German and English, your child gains a solid academic foundation in both languages and develops an international perspective.

 

Enrichment coaching

Our enrichment coaches foster key skills such as logical thinking and problem-solving through creative projects. They provide individual support for gifted students and nurture their curiosity, resilience and love of learning. Creativity, self-confidence and critical thinking are at the heart of their work. In close collaboration with the school team, they help create a supportive environment where every student can thrive and realise their full potential.

 

English curriculum

English lessons at our schools follow the standards of the Baden-Württemberg curriculum and are enriched with authentic, native-level materials. Thanks to our immersive approach, students develop a deep understanding of the language and expand their vocabulary well beyond standard expectations.

IT & multimedia

We integrate digital media and technology into lessons from an early stage to foster our students’ media literacy. By using tablets, SMART boards and learning platforms, we teach digital skills in a practical way and make learning varied and engaging.

STEM focus

We believe it’s essential for your child to explore scientific methods and technologies from an early age. With curiosity and creativity, our students observe, measure and analyse real-world phenomena – developing playful solutions to everyday challenges. In this way, science becomes an adventure.

School coaching

Our school coaching supports students facing learning challenges, special educational needs or social difficulties. Through personalised guidance, tailored support plans and close collaboration with teachers and families, we ensure that each student receives the individual care they need to thrive – both academically and socially.

School trips and excursions

With us, your child will discover just how exciting real-world learning can be. Regular outings to parks, museums, theatres and hands-on workshops bring classroom topics to life through meaningful experiences. Whether in the forest, in the city or on stage – learning extends beyond the classroom and becomes tangible in everyday life.

 

From year 4 onwards, school trips not only strengthen the sense of community, but also support your child’s social development.

After-school care, clubs and holiday programme

Our after-school programme and afternoon clubs offer a wide variety of opportunities for your child to grow – from creative projects and sports to exciting hands-on clubs.

 

We also look after your child during most school holidays. Our holiday programme includes lovingly planned excursions, themed projects and fun-filled adventure days.

 

The school is closed during the Christmas holidays and for three weeks in the summer. You can find a full overview in the parents' calendar.

Our school clothes

Creating connection and a sense of belonging

Our school clothes stand for unity, equality and a strong sense of community. They help children focus on what truly matters: personality, diversity and being part of something bigger.

 

From day one, all children wear school clothes as a visible symbol of togetherness. This makes everyday routines easier and provides children with a sense of structure and orientation.

 

To help families get started and promote sustainability, you can join internal WhatsApp groups for second-hand school items. If you're interested, feel free to contact your class parent representative. New school clothing is available in the Uniphorms shop.

Our school meals

Healthy nutrition matters to us.

Nutritious, balanced meals are an essential part of our educational approach. In our in-house kitchens, fresh food is prepared daily – child-friendly, delicious and certified for quality.

 

Shared meals are about more than just eating: they foster a sense of community, support respectful table culture and encourage social exchange. We value a calm and welcoming atmosphere that helps children feel at ease and cared for.
