history

Free schools for boys were established in the Bremen school system after the introduction of compulsory schooling in Bremen in 1844 as schools free of charge. State elementary schools have been maintained in Bremen since 1862. Between 1892 and 1916, 25 new schools were built in Bremen, some of which were strictly separated from girls. In the west of Bremen, the population doubled at the beginning of the 20th century. Several new schools were built. The free schools Elisabethstraße (1896) and Schule am Pulverberg (1901), as well as the elementary school on Steffensweg (1905), Vegesacker Straße School (1911), elementary and secondary school on Waller Ring and elementary school Helgolander Straße (1916) were built in central Walle.

The three-storey free school or elementary school on Schleswiger Straße from 1901 was planned and implemented in the historicism style by the Bremen Building Inspectorate (later the Bremen Building Department ). The building with a basement and a hipped roof has a red brick facade. The stepped gable with a clock and Gothic windows characterizes the building.

In 1901 the school had 14 classes and 764 students. In 1911, the school on the Pulverberg was built next to it to relieve the burden . In 1920 the school on Schleswiger Straße became an experimental school with 17 classes and 717 students until 1927 under the direction of Heinrich Scharrelmann . In 1921 the contending college split off under the leadership of the reformer Friedrich Aevermann and moved to the Theodorstrasse school; both schools now had eight classes each. Aevermann's school moved to the school on Helgolander Strasse in 1924. In 1933 the status of an experimental school was revoked under the National Socialists.

When units of the naval flak were temporarily stationed in the school on the Pulverberg during the Second World War , it accepted the students of this school.

After 1945 a primary and a high school was housed here. In the Bremer education the elementary school converted to the main and middle or high school (A and H-branch and B- or M-branch) and after 1975 to Schulzentrum secondary .
