Languages of instruction are English and German at all levels. The bilingual English/German kindergarten teaches in both languages. The primary school uses bilingual instruction in German and English. The secondary school (7–10) is bilingual with English and German given equal importance, teaching each subject in one language for about a year while building proficiency in both. The upper secondary (11–13) continues the bilingual approach and offers the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme, with IB exams primarily in English and most IB subjects using English literature and teaching materials.
The school provides bilingual education in English and German across its programmes from Kindergarten through Secondary School.
English and German immersion starts in kindergarten, using the 'one person – one language' approach, with German- and English-speaking teachers supporting bilingual development.
