Our school is situated in Radeberg near Dresden – the capital of Saxony. It lies in the middle of the town centre. In Radeberg live about 18.000 inhabitants. Radeberg is famous for its beer.

The secondary school is a general school open for all kinds of pupils who want to reach a GCSE. There are secondary modern classes (class 7-9) and secondary classes (from 7-10).

Pestalozzischule Radeberg Oberschule

All students learn English at school as their first foreign language. About one third of our students learn French as their second foreign language.

Some of our pupils come from families with a disadvantaged social background. There are also opportunities for challenged (disabled) pupils and children with behavioral disorders as well to be integrated at Pestalozzi School.

It’s a big day-to-day challenge for us providing the best possible conditions in learning for every single pupil notwithstanding its social background.

Our institution will act as the coordinator in this project. We are looking forward to host our partners during the meetings here in Radeberg.

Our school has been dealing with environmental issues for a long time, especially with water pollution in our area. Thus we want to share our experiences in this new common project.
