The Ricarda-Huch-Schule in Hanover is a grammar school at Bonifatiusplatz 15 with a branch at Edenstraße 23 in the List district .

Years 5 to 13 are taught primarily in the areas of languages, mathematics and natural sciences, social sciences as well as art and music up to the Abitur. The leisure area for use in the early afternoon is a special feature.

The focus of the work lies in the training of independent work as well as in an extensive competence development within the framework of competence days, the output of which is in turn consistently integrated into the specialist teaching.

Since 1994 the school has been known for its intensive quality development work; The quality of the work was recognized in 2000 when it was accepted into the Bertelsmann Network of Innovative Schools (NIS). The Ricarda Huch School has been one of seven members of the Lower Saxony Quality Network since 2002.

history

The school emerged from a private girls' school that was converted into a municipal school in 1928. In 1934 it was renamed "Elisabeth Granier School" after Elisabeth Granier .

In 1955 the school was again divided into two schools: the Käthe-Kollwitz-Schule in Podbielskistraße and the "Ricarda-Huch-Schule" , named after Ricarda Huch , which remained at the location after the division .

In 1978, grades 5 and 6 were separated in order to go through the orientation level in Lower Saxony , which was independent of the school type and existed until 2003.

Girls and boys have been given co-education since 1980.
