The Barnim Gymnasium Berlin is a school in the district of Berlin-Falkenberg in Berlin . With around 1000 students, it is one of the largest high schools in the city and the largest in the Lichtenberg district .
history
On August 5, 1993 , the fifth grammar school was opened in the Hohenschönhausen district at Liebenwalder Straße 20, a branch of the Pestalozzi grammar school. Around 300 students and twelve regular teachers as well as nine teachers from neighboring schools initially taught in classrooms in different schools.
In August 1992, planning began for a new school building on Ahrensfelder Chaussee, the foundation stone was laid on June 26, 1996 and the handover in September 1998. The handicapped-friendly establishment of the school complex was an essential prerequisite for carrying out a school experiment aimed at integrating disabled pupils in a targeted manner. In the 1997/98 school year several young people with physical disabilities were able to be integrated. In 2002 the merger with the Stauffenberg-Gymnasium took place, in 2005 with the Descartes-Gymnasium. Offers and pedagogical focuses of both schools, such as high school class 5 (Descartes-Gymnasium), the establishment of a separate theater stage and badminton as a competitive sport (Stauffenberg-Gymnasium) were integrated.
School name
In the 1995/1996 school year, students, parents and teachers determined a name for the fifth grammar school. Barnim describes the slightly undulating landscape that begins behind the school and extends far into the Brandenburg region .
Architecture and art
The school building at Ahrensfelder Chaussee 41 in Falkenberg was designed by the architect Stefan Scholz .
Inside the school building there are wall sculptures by the Japanese artist Mutsuo Hirano , concrete frescoes with motifs by Thomas Lange and, since 2017, a light installation by Lynn Weirich.
School profile
MINT
Barnim-Gymnasium Berlin has been a member of the MINT-EC association since 2002 . In 2008 and 2010 the school received the award for MINT Excellence Center from the Siemens Foundation . The member schools have to prove their quality through recertification, which was last done in 2019.
inclusion
The concept of targeted inclusion at Barnim-Gymnasium is a pedagogical focus and is based on the basic idea of positively addressing the diversity of students and integrating them productively into school life and leading all students to the Abitur.
This includes students with physical and mental disabilities, special educational needs and reading and spelling difficulties. Pupils with disabilities and their parents receive support and advice from the inclusion team and, if necessary, from the school management, the school psychological service and the youth welfare office. Almost all handicapped pupils have been able to get their Abitur through individual support measures.
In order to promote the idea of inclusion in the entire municipality, the headmaster of the Barnim-Gymnasium suggested the inclusion week in Lichtenberg, which has been organized twice since 2014 in cooperation with the district office.
Barnim International
In addition to regular lessons, the Barnim international project promotes the foreign language skills and intercultural competence of the students. In the Barnim-Gymnasium, these goals are implemented in a package of modules that interlock on different levels. Communication and exchange with young people from abroad and colleagues from different regions, nationalities and cultures are of great importance.
Wind class
Since 2011 the school has been practicing the “wind class” teaching model. As an alternative to music lessons, pupils in the 7th and 8th grades learn an orchestral wind instrument, make music as an ensemble and organize concerts.
Promotion of the gifted
Since the school year 2000/2001, the (highly) gifted support has been another focus of the educational work at Barnim-Gymnasium Berlin.
Particularly talented pupils are promoted in the school in the project “Impulse Lessons”, a pull-out program in which the students are removed from regular lessons for one hour per week (impulse hour). The “Impulse Lessons” project has been developed and implemented since 2011 in cooperation with the Grüner Campus Malchow Community School (project management), the Rangsdorf Seeschule and the Grünau Community School. A team of teachers from these schools jointly planned the principles for implementing and evaluating the impulse lessons, supported by the Robert Bosch Foundation . After a positive evaluation of the project, certification took place in 2015.
The grammar school is one of the network schools in the School Network East, at which talented primary school students from the region are supported in afternoon courses.
Since 2006 the Barnim-Gymnasium has been running a four-day summer camp for talented primary school students in the last week of the holiday. During the four days, the participants spend the night in the school and learn and research in various courses. In addition to these courses, there are leisure activities in the afternoons and evenings. The aim of the camp is to address or arouse different interests of the participants and to promote existing talents and social skills. In 2011, the “Summer Camp” project was awarded the Lichtenberg district's sponsorship award for social learning.
Career and study orientation
In addition to the treatment in class, the subject of application is the subject of workshops that the school organizes in cooperation with the AOK for the 9th grade at the school, the 10th grades visit the BIZ together. The employment agency is regularly present at the school through a career counselor. The two-week internship takes place in class 9.
A study day is offered in grades 10 and 11. The program includes B. presentations by representatives from science and politics, the employment agency and start-ups, as well as an assessment center simulation, application advice and excursions to companies, colleges and universities.
Since the 2013/14 school year, the grammar school has been offering a supplementary course "Study and Work", which prepares 11th grade students for the steps after graduation over two semesters.
Welcome classes
Started with 30 welcome children in 2015, meanwhile more than 170 welcome children have been taught in 16 classes at a branch of the Barnim-Gymnasium Berlin.
With the project “Living in Germany - Building Bridges”, the school has set itself the goal of strengthening the social integration of children and young people in the welcome classes in cooperation with the Friends' Association. The Cranach Foundation has awarded the Barnim-Gymnasium Berlin the Cranach School Prize for its special commitment to the integration of welcome classes and the claim to live a welcoming culture.
