Operated by the Stiftung Deutsch-Norwegische Schule Oslo, a Norwegian-registered foundation that runs the school and the Deutsch-Norwegische Kindergarten Oslo as a separate legal entity. The Stiftung Assembly, comprised of all parents, elects the Board and oversees appointments, finances, development, and administration. The DENOSO leadership includes Dr. Ulrich Mayer as headteacher; Dominik Schöneberg as deputy headteacher (German); Solfrid Storum as deputy headteacher (Norwegian) and Grundschulleiterin; Thorsten Brandt as managing director; and the heads of the primary and secondary divisions, PQM lead, and after-school care.
Deutsch-Norwegische Schule Oslo is a private bi-cultural school in Oslo, recognized by both Germany and Norway, serving students aged 1 to 18. The school delivers a bilingual German–Norwegian education across all stages, with instruction in German, Norwegian, English and French, and a bilingual history program. From kindergarten through Abitur, students earn both the German Abitur and the Norwegian Vitnemål, enabling access to higher education worldwide. The curriculum includes the Deutsches Sprachdiplom I and a Ganztagsbetreuung after‑school program for grades 1–8. A bilateral contract funds the school, strengthening cross‑cultural ties and enabling dual qualifications under the Deutsches Internationales Abitur/DIAP. Facilities include a small library in the SAKS building and the Geitmyra city garden used for teaching and after‑school activities. The culture program Den kulturelle skolesekken (DKS), an orchestra, a primary choir, and collaborations with Oslo museums enrich learning; students also participate in Jugend musiziert and other cultural exchanges.
