Mission statement

Until August 2007 the school was sponsored by the Bishop of Osnabrück. The school determines that all students should take part in religious education. The pedagogical and content-related work is based on the Christian image of man and Christian traditions.

The school acknowledges the religious dimension of life and expresses it in school life through a variety of school pastoral offers.

Errors and weaknesses are not interpreted as failures, but as performance in need of improvement.
