history

Building of Frieda 23 after the renovation, the first location of the Jenaplanschule (1996-2004)

The Jenaplan School was founded as a branch of the elementary school on Margaretenplatz. At the beginning of the 1996/97 school year, 27 1st and 2nd grade students were taught for the first time according to the basic principles of the Jenaplan by Peter Petersen. The classrooms were in the building of today's Frieda 23 in the Kröpeliner-Tor-Vorstadt .

Building of the Margaretensschule (2011), location of the Jenaplanschule from 2004–2007
Building of the large city school Rostock (2005), location of the Jenaplan school from 2007–2009

In 2000 it became an independent elementary school under the name Jenaplanschule Peter Petersen Rostock . In 2004 the company moved to the Margaretenschule building on Barnstorfer Weg, also in the Kröpeliner-Tor suburb. At the same time, as part of the “longer learning together” program, classes were taught up to grade six for the first time. After the Jenaplan School had grown steadily, in April 2007 it again moved to the building of the Great City School in Wallstrasse in the center of Rostock . Jenaplanschule has been an integrated comprehensive school with elementary school since 2008/2009, but initially without upper secondary level . Up to 2015/2016, six sub-groups (cross-year core groups for grades 1–3), five middle groups (grades 4–6) and two upper groups (grades 7–8) were taught.

After that, a new group was gradually added every year. In the 2019/20 school year there were six subgroups, six middle groups and four main groups at the Lindenstrasse location. At the Blücherstrasse site there were three subgroups, two middle groups, four youth groups and two upper secondary level groups.

In July 2009, the Jenaplan School moved to its own school building in Lindenstrasse ( city ​​center ) for the first time, which it no longer had to share with another school. In 2014 the school name was changed to Jenaplanschule Rostock .

In 2015, the Jenaplan School in Rostock was awarded the German School Prize of the Robert Bosch Foundation . In 2016 it received the award as a MINT school in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania for "a large number of above-average activities in the MINT subjects of mathematics, computer science, natural sciences and technology within and outside of the classroom".

Since the 2017/18 school year, the Jenaplan School has been expanded to include an upper level . That is why it became necessary to move to a second location on Blücherstrasse. The Jenaplan School was aiming for the Abitur after the 13th grade in order to be able to offer extracurricular lessons and other elements of the school concept to the same extent in the upper grades. However, the Ministry of Education stipulated that the Abitur should be taken after the 12th grade . The first class of high school graduates left Jenaplan School in 2019.

School profile

The contents of the state framework plan of the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania are integrated into the school's internal curriculum, but the organization and the forms of teaching have considerable peculiarities compared to normal regular schools .

One is cross-year learning. Instead of in grade classes , the students in grades 1–3 (subgroups), 4–6 (middle groups), 7–8 (upper groups) and 9–10 (youth groups) each learn together in so-called core groups. At the start of the school year, 2/3 or half of the pupils from the senior group remain in the group. As a result, the concept of learning through teaching for the older students in a home group plays an important role. However, some subjects, such as foreign languages, are taught at different ages .

Due to the combination of primary school and comprehensive school up to secondary level II, the two-time change of school (type) that is common in regular school operations in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania to the orientation level after the fourth grade and to a secondary school after the sixth grade is not necessary for the students of the Jenaplan School.

In the subgroups, the workshop lessons according to Jürgen Reichen are predominantly used . This includes interdisciplinary work on technical, mathematical, musical-artistic or linguistic topics. German is taught according to the principle of reading by writing . From the first grade onwards, great importance is attached to independent learning with open lessons and free work, as well as the ability to plan the weekly schedule independently . Other important components of Jenaplan pedagogy are partner and group work as well as discussions in the morning group . The presentation of the results of independent learning is already practiced regularly in the first grade.

Usually, tests or class work are not carried out on a common date for all students, but rather the individual student registers with the teacher for learning progress checks (see learning counter ). The learning pace can thus be largely individualized . Depending on their learning development, a student can go through the normally three-year lower or middle group in two or four years, and the two-year upper and youth group in one or three years. However, there is no such thing as sitting down . The Jenaplan School experiments in the subgroups with grade-free verbal assessments .

Lessons at extracurricular learning locations , project and workshop lessons as well as subject-related lessons play a major role in all grades . In the middle groups, multi-week interdisciplinary projects in "networked lessons" with five hours per week form an important component of the lesson. Another special feature is the "experiential teaching" with two hours a week in the afternoon with extra-curricular content that corresponds to the inclinations of the students. In the main groups, the practical project day, which runs for half a year, represents an important teaching unit, in which usually a whole school day is worked at extracurricular learning locations every week.

There is a close cooperation with the vocational school for service and trade. Another cooperation exists between the Jenaplan School and the Rostock Conservatory , where the pupils of the lower and middle groups can learn violin or recorder during class time, and other wind instruments in the 4th grade. The sixth grades take part in a one-week exchange with a Danish partner school every year .

As a rule, there is no homework ; instead, tasks in the weekly schedule are completed during class time and up to fourth grade in the afternoon working hours, which are part of the after-school care center. The children decide for themselves at what time and for how long they go to work and which tasks and workshops they want to complete or finish.

Day care center and school association

Carrier of the hoard is the school association of Jenaplanschule. The after-school care center shares the rooms with the school, works according to the principle of open after-school care and offers a wide range of courses.
