It offers a trilingual education in German, English, and Spanish, with German from early years and English introduced in the third year of Primary within a bicultural Uruguayan-German setting.

Carrasco offers a gym and outdoor fields; Pocitos has three gymnasia and a theater hall with Humboldtsaal for performances. An intercultural exchange and partnerships with institutions enrich learning.
