IGS Franzsches Feld

The Integrated Comprehensive School Franzsches Feld (own spelling IGS: FF ) is a comprehensive school in the eastern ring area of Braunschweig near the Franzschen Feld and the Nussberg . In 2006 she won the German School Prize .

The IGS Franzsches Feld visit around 850 pupils per school year, who are taught by 96 teachers and five trainee teachers and supported by three educational staff. The school has existed since September 1st, 1989. It is run as an all-day school based on the age group principle. It is a four-course integrated comprehensive school with grades 5 to 10 and upper level ( profile upper level ). The number of registrations by far exceeds the free places, so that a lottery procedure decides on admission to the fifth grade.

Secondary 1

In lower secondary level there are four grades with around 26 students in each year. Each class is supervised by a tutor ; they remain the class teachers throughout lower secondary level. Students have compulsory classes on three afternoons (Monday, Wednesday and Thursday). The day and week structure of secondary level I is characterized by an open beginning (all students and teachers must be present in the first lesson), breaks that become longer during the day, and tutor lessons at the beginning of the week and at the end of the week. In addition, there are various working groups during the lunch break and on Tuesday afternoons. In two lesson projects per school year, certain topics, such as the Stone Age , are dealt with across subjects . In addition, there are annual meetings, project days and thematic days. In the compulsory elective area I from grade 7 onwards, the interdisciplinary learning fields human-nature-technology, technical world and music-cultural education as well as French or Spanish as a second foreign language are offered. In the compulsory elective area II from year 9 onwards, further specialist and interdisciplinary courses are offered.

differentiation
There is a level-related differentiation concept in lower secondary level. This excludes an external differentiation of specialist performance in the 5th and 6th year and gradually includes a support-oriented, flexible and teaching unit-related core course system on two levels in mathematics and English in the 7th and 8th, for German in the 8th to 10th grade and for natural science in the 9th and 10th year (basic courses and advanced courses).
Testimonies
Detailed learning development reports, consisting of a student report (self-assessment), a tutor's report and specialist reports, replace the grades in grades 5–8 and supplement them in grades 9 and 10.

Secondary level 2

In the school year 2006/2007 there were around 270 students in three grades with four profiles in the gymnasiale Oberstufe .

  • E: MU - Human-Environment Experiment (focus subjects: biology, geography, chemistry)
  • Cult (main subjects: art, German, history)
  • Deep (major subjects: German, English, politics)
  • Einstein (main subjects: mathematics, history, physics, politics)

The starting point for the upper profile level was the goal of further developing the course level of the upper secondary level introduced after 1972 in two points. Due to the changes in the upper level regulations, adjustments had to be made to the original upper level profile of the IGS FF, but the basic idea should be retained or further developed:

  • Creation of binding social structures and promotion of student and teacher cooperation.
  • Continuation of the central work approach of the comprehensive school in the gymnasiale Oberstufe through subject-oriented, subject-related or even interdisciplinary learning.

Conference system and participation

The IGS FF is characterized by a large degree of participation by students, parents and teachers. In each year there is a year team made up of the tutors employed there who are supposed to coordinate the work among the classes of a year. There is also a specialist conference for each department. All subject teachers as well as a student and parent representative take part in this. The highest decision-making body of the school is the general conference . All teachers and employees of the school (caretaker, cafeteria team etc.) as well as two pupil and two parent representatives per class sit in this.

Student Council

Each class sends 2 representatives to the SV meeting that takes place once a week. From their midst, this assembly currently elects a five-person team that takes on the position of student spokesman and does the general SV work and, among other things. a. leads the SV meetings.

prehistory

On November 1st, 1936 Hermann Göring laid the foundation stone for the building and at the same time was made an honorary citizen of the city of Braunschweig. Only “purely German” building materials from the Bavarian East Markets were used for the new building . On March 30, 1938, the headquarters building was inaugurated after a construction period of seventeen months and the Braunschweig Air Fleet Command moved into its new headquarters on the SA field, today's building complex of the IGS Franzsches Feld. The Braunschweig Air Force Base was considered the largest in northwest Germany. From there a wide boulevard led to the Reichsjägerhof .

Since 1989 the building complex has been operated by the Integrated Comprehensive School Franzsches Feld, the Freie Schule Braunschweig e. V. and used as the seat of the district military replacement office in Braunschweig. The Bundeswehr property was closed in 2014.

School history

On April 1, 1949, a "Lower Saxony Education Center" was set up in the building of the former Air Fleet Command. She managed the new "Franzsches Feld primary school", which had been in the building since October 17, 1948, and which was converted into a "secondary school for boys and girls" on April 1, 1949. Its head was the former member of the Socialist Student Group Braunschweig , Bernhard Winschewski (born June 24, 1908 in Schöningen ), who was then also head of the Lower Saxony Educational Center , which was also located there . The “ orphanage ” and the “technical school for kindergarten teachers”, which had been in this building since October 1948, as well as the “state welfare school for the training of welfare workers”, which had been moved from Hanover to Braunschweig, were also co-managed.

Elementary school or secondary school in Franzsches Feld

An elementary school, later “Hauptschule Franzsches Feld”, existed from 1949 to 1991. It was finally dissolved when the IGS Franzsches Feld was founded. The concept of this school, which initially had to cope with too many pupils, too small rooms and the different levels of education of the children and adolescents, included the testing of new ways to learn to read and write. For this purpose, the “differentiated middle class” school experiment was introduced in close cooperation with the Raabeschule. This already provided one of the central concepts of the later comprehensive schools, the longer common learning of the students after four years of attending primary school. In the years 1978 to 1988 the number of pupils and thus the class sizes at the Franzsches Feld secondary school decreased. 7 of the 14 existing secondary schools at that time closed their school operations. Therefore, new concepts were sought in order to be able to continue teaching at the location. In addition, for example, the subjects Turkish and Turkish cultural studies were offered to counteract fluctuation. This may seem like a successful approach at first, but the increase in immigrant students (up to 40% per class) is leading to a further decline in student numbers. No new year will be accepted at the beginning of the 1989/90 school year.

Orientation level Franzsches Feld

At the Hauptschule Franzsches Feld no pupils from the primary school classes were accepted at the start of the 1972/73 school year because an orientation level was to be introduced for the 1974/75 school year. This was housed in wing B. It existed until 1991 and was moved to the school on Bültenweg after the IGS was established. Here it was continued on a reduced scale until the 2003/04 school year. These should be given special support through additional learning groups for less able-bodied pupils, the orientation level was used to classify them into three levels. However, this concept did not work because the students in these learning groups viewed themselves as marginalized and a path to secondary or special school seemed preprogrammed for them. For this reason, the principle of level classification by the orientation level was abolished in Lower Saxony in 2003.

Awards and commitment

German school award

On December 11, 2006, the IGS FF was awarded a second prize of the German School Prize endowed with € 10,000 .

Sally Perel Prize for respect and tolerance

In 2015, tenth grade students received the Sally Perel Prize for Respect and Tolerance named after Sally Perel and endowed with a total of € 3,000 for their project “Students help refugee children”. Ulrich Markurth has been the patron of the “Sally Perel Prize”, which rewards young people's commitment to combating racism and violence, in particular .

Other Projects

Stele for tolerance (inauguration on October 18, 2012)
  • The IGS Franzsches Feld is a member of the school association Blick über den Zaun , which aims to learn from one another through mutual exchange and thus to support one another.
  • The school has also founded its own solar association for climate protection. In the context of climate protection, the IGS Franzsches Feld was the partner school of the Autostadt Wolfsburg in 2011/2012 to support the project "The construction of a solar charging station for electric bicycles".
  • She also participates in the “Network Tolerance”. For this purpose, the IGS Franzsches Feld had a corresponding six-meter-high stele of tolerance by the artist Karl-Martin Hartmann, filled with red glass elements, which was inaugurated on October 18, 2012. More of these steles are in Germany, Estonia, Italy and the United States of America.
  • The IGS Franzsches Feld is also very committed to social issues and, together with a French lycee from Strasbourg, participated in a project in which feeler books were produced for a little boy who was blind from birth.
  • Certification as a MINT school in 2012 for the range of MINT subjects (mathematics-computer science-natural sciences-technology) through the MINT Zukunft project .

Theater AG

The Theater AG is known for its music theater group "nunodernie". Every year this performs a musical in the Brunsviga . In recent years these have been the following pieces:
