The Ingeborg-Bachmann-Gymnasium ( Bundesgymnasium und Bundesrealgymnasium Ingeborg Bachmann ) is a general education secondary school in the Carinthian state capital Klagenfurt . The school was named in honor of the Austrian writer Ingeborg Bachmann . One focus of this school is therefore the German language . The school profile also includes the partnership between teachers, students and parents (“learning together”) and the topic of health.

The grammar school emerged from the former Ferdinand Jergitsch grammar school, which originally only girls were allowed to attend. For some years now, co-education has also been in effect at this school .

The school types

The same curriculum applies to first and second grade students. German, math and English take place four hours a week. Computer science (introduction to office software, internet and hardware) is held as a 'compulsory exercise' for all first grade students. There is history from the second grade, physics from the third and chemistry in the fourth grade. A special feature of this school is the focus on learning with one another, where the students are to be specifically guided towards one another. In the first grades you playfully learn how to deal with other students for an hour a week with the class board.

In the second grade, the decision about the type of school to attend in the third and fourth grade has to be made. You can choose from the Realgymnasium or the languages Latin , Italian or French . In the Realgymnasium four hours of mathematics are held per week, while the linguistic focus is three hours. The number of English lessons in Realgymnasium is three per week, otherwise there are four. In the Realgymnasium, in the fourth grade you do not only mathematics but also geometric drawing and in addition, a science laboratory (depending on the semester physics, chemistry or biology ) is on the schedule for one semester per school year every other week . When attending the upper level (from the fifth grade), one of the above-mentioned foreign languages ​​must be chosen for both types of school. In the classical grammar school, Latin must then be chosen at the latest. In the Realgymnasium there are a higher number of hours per week in the upper level of the natural science subjects biology, physics and chemistry than in the classic branch. From the seventh grade onwards, schoolwork in biology and physics is also written in the Realgymnasium. The Ingeborg-Bachmann-Gymnasium is the only AHS in Carinthia to offer an economics branch that can be chosen from the third grade. This is based on the curriculum of the realistic branch, but the subjects geography , mathematics, etc. are increasingly focused on , and so-called “junior companies” are usually created from the sixth grade onwards, which sell their products at school events.

Afternoon care

Since the school year 1990/91 there has been afternoon care at the Bachmann Gymnasium . The number of those pupils who take advantage of this offer is far above average compared to other AHS in Carinthia. The support within the framework of the supervision is provided by professors from the grammar school, who also maintain constant contact with the class teachers and can therefore specifically address the needs of the students. Help is available for German, English, mathematics, French, Italian, Latin (lower level).

Others

The school has a library, a ballroom, two IT rooms, chemistry halls, physics halls, biology halls, work rooms, music rooms, drawing rooms and gymnasiums. In addition, the school has a school doctor with regular consultation hours. There are lockers for a fee in the basement and there is a canteen on the ground floor.

School mediation was introduced at the Ingeborg-Bachmann-Gymnasium as the first school in Austria . In addition, the entrepreneur driving license with the modules "A", "B", "C" and "UP" is offered.

Every year the Junior Bachmann Literature Competition takes place, which is organized by elected professors of the IBG and is very popular at many schools in the German-speaking area. In addition, there is the possibility for students to acquire language certificates such as the Cambridge First Certificate in English or the DELF through freely selectable courses .
