With the school reform decided in the state parliament, the two regional schools located in the village also changed, initially only structurally. A large new building was built on the former school yard of the secondary school. This is to connect the two neighboring Bornhöved schools (elementary and secondary school and secondary school) with one another, initially structurally, and later to form a joint community school. So far, the two schools have offered their students an open, voluntary all-day school.
