2 Profile
The school focuses early on a more advanced education in mathematics and sciences. An entrance examination
has to be passed in order to get into the school. With more classes than normal in mathematics, biology,
physics, chemistry and informatics the students from grade 7 on learn more than student in a regular high school.
The school has also a contract with the University of Dresden which allows the school to send grade 11 and grade 12 students to that university to help professors and assistants in order to experience early what it is like to research and work scientifically.
