The Werkschulheim Felbertal is a private grammar school with public rights, combined with a boarding school for girls and boys. The educational concept, which has been tried and tested for more than 70 years, combines a high level of general education, manual labour and social learning. This interplay of theoretical, practical and human education is education with vision and opens up the best opportunities for the future.
The pupils conclude the programme with the AHS-Matura, which entitles students to study at any university or university of applied sciences. Furthermore, our graduates complete the Final apprenticeship examination in the respective craft.
The Werkschulheim Felbertal is a private grammar school with public status.
The school is run by the Verein zur Förderung von Werkschulheimen.
Our school is committed to Christian values.
Education, as we teach it, results from the comprehensive and lively unity of the areas of school, crafts and home life.
This combination of broad general education, technical training and social learning enables a unique interplay of theoretical, practical and human education. As a result, our students gain a deeper understanding of the cultural, economic and social contexts of our world.
Pupils, pupils, teachers, parents and all other staff at our school see themselves as partners. We treat each other in an atmosphere of mutual respect.
Young people are at the centre of our joint activities and efforts.
We offer a broad general education and promote the cognitive, sporting and artistic skills of our pupils, while also using modern teaching methods and teaching in a way that is relevant to life.
Our target group is gifted pupils who are willing to perform. We offer individualised support when learning problems arise.
We are increasingly teaching interdisciplinary and project-orientated lessons in conjunction with craft lessons. In this way, we promote „learning for life“ and the flexibility to help shape the rapid developments of the future.
We develop the creative and practical skills of our students through intensive work lessons in the lower school and in-depth training as a carpentry technician, mechanical engineering technician or mechatronics technician in the upper school, enabling them to enter the world of work directly.
Through this practical training, we also teach teamwork, accuracy, perseverance, decision-making and problem-solving skills.
Our students gain an insight into the professional world of tradespeople, gain an understanding of their concerns and acquire the foundations for management tasks in the business world.
We offer a family-like education in small groups in which the pupils can feel comfortable. We attach great importance to co-operation with parents.
Through the intensive life in the community of the boarding and half-boarding school, our pupils acquire a high level of social competence.
The educator is also a teacher and lives with his group in his own house. The pupils value him as a direct reference person and he supports them with his individual skills.
We offer regular and differentiated learning support as well as meaningful leisure activities with teachers and educators. We promote the sporting and artistic development of our pupils in a targeted and broad-based way.
Particularly important to us are the adventurous activities that the group and teachers organise together outside the home, such as our traditional camp and hiking week.
Our graduates complete their 9-year training programme with a final apprenticeship examination (journeyman's examination) and the AHS Matura. This attractive dual qualification entitles them to study at any university and fulfils the requirements for the master craftsman's examination.
