10 good reasons for our Gymnasium boarding

2. A special feel-good atmosphere in school and boarding 

The Schloss-Schule is anything but an ordinary school. At our boarding, students can look forward to a warm atmosphere, committed teachers and supervisors as well as an ideal living and learning environment.

We are convinced that optimal academic performance is only possible under optimal conditions. At the boarding school, we ensure an ideal balance between learning and life through a variety of leisure activities, many sports activities and people of trust who are always available.

We want to offer children and young people a place where they can feel at home – with all the rights and rules. For us, a lived togetherness, the joint achievement of goals and the good feeling of feeling in good hands are our top priorities.

3. Structured daily routine at the boarding school

The aim of the boarding-Gymnasium Schloss-Schule Kirchberg is to exemplify responsibility for children and young people – through clear structures and the best possible support both at school and in everyday life.

We want each of our students to find support and orientation. That's why each of our teachers and supervisors tries to support our students in finding their own best way. On this basis, new perspectives for later life open up.

In our boarding Gymnasium Schloss-Schule Kirchberg, the world meets – and the world meets the Schloss-Schule Kirchberg. The special attraction lies in the cooperation of about 2/3 local students from Kirchberg and the surrounding area and about 1/3 boarding school students from all over Germany, Europe and overseas. At our boarding in Baden-Württemberg, children and young people from Germany, China, Spain, France, Italy, Poland and other countries meet – and become good friends.

This interesting mix of different cultures guarantees a lively exchange with each other, which in turn promotes understanding, openness and tolerance.

6. Rural-idyllic surroundings and optimal transport connections

In Kirchberg and the surrounding area , the world is a little more idyllic than elsewhere. Landscape, culture and the local people form a unique framework in which our students can develop optimally at school and personally away from the noise of the big city.

8. Advantages of a private school – optimal framework conditions

The decision for a private school is usually made quite consciously. Although the same legal framework conditions apply here as for public schools, we can also set our own accents on topics such as evaluation, personnel management and goal orientation.
