The 4th comprehensive school in Aachen is a four-tier integrated comprehensive school as an all-day school in the Aachen-Mitte district . It opened on August 1, 2011 and is under construction. At the moment, only 5th grade students attend the school. Probably from the 2017/2018 school year there will be an upper level that will lead students to the Abitur for the first time in the 2019/2020 school year .
history
On March 31, 2011, the CDU and the Greens submitted a council motion that instructed the administration to prepare a template for the reduction, concentration and bundling of secondary schools by October of that year, in which a fourth comprehensive school was also an option. In an interview with Aachener Nachrichten in April 2010, the district president Hans Peter Lindlar pointed out that at this point in time, for legal reasons, the establishment of a comprehensive school was only possible as a half-day school. The legal basis changed after the state elections in North Rhine-Westphalia. Since another 140 children had to be turned away from the existing three comprehensive schools in the 2010/2011 school year, parents 'representatives took this as an opportunity in May 2010 to submit a collection of signatures for a fourth comprehensive school in Aachen to the citizens' forum. The CDU, the Greens, the SPD and the Left have signaled their willingness to agree to a fourth comprehensive school in Aachen. At this time, the first locations were discussed in the citizens' forum. The initiative of the David-Hansemann-Schule in September 2010 made the re-establishment at Sandkaulstrasse possible. Parents and staff spoke out in favor of founding a new comprehensive school, whereby both the parents and the teachers of the David Hansemann Realschule assumed in a vote that the secondary school would be converted into a comprehensive school and that the staff could accordingly stay together. Against the wishes of the teaching staff of the Realschule, the City Council of Aachen decided in December 2010 to found a new 4th comprehensive school in Sandkaulstrasse and to close the David-Hansemann-Realschule. In February 2011 the necessary 112 registrations for the new 4th comprehensive school were reached.
Locations
The fourth comprehensive school will - like the David Hansemann School - be set up at two locations. Grades 5 to 8 are to be accommodated in Sandkaulstrasse 75, and grades 9 to 13 in Sandkaulstrasse 12. The two locations are about 400 m apart.
Sandkaulstrasse 12
The 4th Aachen comprehensive school is currently only at the old location of the David-Hansemann-Realschule, which has now expired. In the coming school year 2016/2017, classes will then be held again at the newly built location at Sandkaulstrasse 75.
Sandkaulstrasse 75
It is the third comprehensive school in Aachen that was founded in this building. Originally the building was built for a primary school. The Aachen architect Peter Michael Pielen designed the school in the inner courtyard of the development between Sandkaul-, Achter-, Berg- and Rochusstraße, which was given a special location: central yet quiet. “Pielen wanted freedom and security to be expressed equally in the architecture, in the construction and in the overall facility. In addition to the buildings "...", the design of the outdoor facilities was also important. Green areas, groups of shrubs and trees, as well as "Tummelwiesen" have been landscaped here in order to let the students breathe within a "green lung". The City of Aachen launched a competition to adapt the building to the needs of the new comprehensive school. The basis for this is, among other things, the requirements for the building, which were formulated in a workshop with the participation of parents, teachers and students. The results will be presented to the public in December 2011. In addition to the two towers connected by the cafeteria , there are two schoolyards , a football field , a biotope and a gym on the school premises . Before school started in August 2011, the city of Aachen carried out some renovation measures in the south tower and the canteen area of the school in order to make everyday school life possible. Among other things, the school has been equipped with a new reading-quiet-games room and a new computer room. When the work in the north tower has been completed, this area will also be converted accordingly.
profile
- The school aims to implement common lessons in the sense of inclusion . That is why there is a special education teacher at the school. The framework concept for the renovation measures takes this into account with barrier-free access and therapy rooms.
- The four classes of a year are taught by a fixed group of teachers who form a team. This team is made up of the tutors of the individual classes and some subject teachers without a class leader. Whenever possible, a class leader is assigned a tutor who accompanies the class through to graduation.
- The comprehensive school is an all-day school . Therefore, the students also have afternoon lessons on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. There is an opportunity to have lunch in the cafeteria on all class days.
- During the lunch break, in addition to the class, the school yard and the sports field, the leisure area is available to the students.
- Lessons take place every 60 minutes, there is a school bell only for alarms. This supposedly gives the school more peace and quiet and more time for independent learning and exercises.
