The Bundesrealgymnasium Schloss Wagrain is a general education secondary school (AHS) in the Upper Austrian municipality of Vöcklabruck . The eponymous school building is the historic Wagrain Castle .

history

In October 1950, due to efforts by the municipality of Vöcklabruck, a first secondary school was set up as a branch of the secondary school in Gmunden in Wagrain Castle. With effect from January 1, 1958, the Realgymnasium Vöcklabruck was elevated to an independent educational institution.

In October 1969, another school building was built in the former castle park, which is now used by the Vöcklabruck grammar school . Today's Bundesrealgymnasium and Bundesgymnasium existed as a joint school, and in the 1980s it was the largest state high school in Upper Austria.

In 1993 the two schools were organizationally separated and the Bundesrealgymnasium Schloss Wagrain became a school independent of the Bundesgymnasium Vöcklabruck.

School operation

It is a public school run by the Republic of Austria . No school fees are required.

Four foreign languages ​​as well as Latin are offered, there is also the compulsory subject economics and a focus on natural sciences in the upper level . The school takes part in several school trials, including the ethics instead of religion school trial .

Other special features are the shortened teaching units (only 45 instead of 50 minutes) and the resulting longer break in the morning (known as the campus ), which should be used for independent learning, and the so-called portfolios . These are project work in a specific subject that is mandatory for all students from the second semester of the first grade onwards.

In the school year 2014/15, a total of 676 students were taught by around 80 teachers.
