German is the school’s core language and the secondary section highlights foreign languages including English (from class 3) and French (from class 6/10). After lessons, students can join the Ganztagsprogramm, which the school describes as offering courses across areas such as languages, art, music, sport, technology, science and games. It also mentions activities like Taekwondo, archery and Korean language courses. DSSI is also recognized as a “MINT-freundliche Schule,” and the school references projects such as science club work and 3D printing.
