history
One of the roots of the Emil Fischer School is the Victoria (also: Viktoria) technical school in Berlin-Schöneberg , where since 1878 a. a. Housekeepers, housekeeping managers and clothing technicians were trained.
In 1983 the Victoria Technical School, Louise Schroeder Vocational School ( Wedding ), Elsa Brandström Vocational School ( Tiergarten ) and Brillat Savarin Vocational School ( Wilmersdorf ) were combined as the Upper School for Nutrition and Home Economics and moved into the newly built school building in Cyclopstrasse. At the same time, the Berlin State Technical School for Food Technology with the fields of bakery technology and meat processing technology, which had previously resided in Pfalzburger Strasse (Wilmersdorf), was integrated into the OSZ .
After the reunification of Berlin in 1990, four more vocational schools from the former eastern part of the city were incorporated : the company vocational school (BBS) 'Simon Bolivar' (restaurants), the BBS 'Edwin Hoernle' (meat products), the BBS 'Heinrich Preuss' (baked goods ) and the BBS 'HO WtB' (everyday goods).
The upper school center has been called Emil Fischer School since 1993 . Also in 1993, pupils were admitted to the vocational high school for the first time. In 1998 the number of pupils had grown to over 7,000, spread over three locations. In the same year the hospitality department ( hotel and restaurant staff , cooks ) was spun off as OSZ hospitality - Brillat-Savarin-Schule with a new location in Pankow .
While some programs have been discontinued or transferred to other high school centers over time, e.g. B. the training of dietitians have recently been added; most recently the establishment of welcome classes and the technical college focus on food packaging technology.
