Our modelWe treat each other friendly and respectfully.

Together with our pupils we create a foundation

on which they shall be able to build their

education and life upon.

A primary concern to us is to promote our pupils

according to their talents and interests.

Freedom shall be given where possible. Limits

must be put where they seem to be necessary.

Sense of duty, creativity, commitment and

independence are essential education aims for us.

To the benefit of everyone we care about the good

cooperation between parents, pupils and the

teachers.

We strengthen the awareness for Europe of our

pupils by participating in various Europe-wide

projects.

We provide a pleasant studying atmosphere by a

corresponding design of the classrooms.
