We believe that all children learn to their maximum potential when supported in a collaborative learning environment involving parents, guardians and professional staff.
The purpose of Public Education in Berlin is to stimulate and guide, along with parents, the intellectual, emotional and physical growth of all students in the community toward responsive, self-disciplined, creative, contributory and perceptive citizenship in a free society. To accomplish this purpose, the system of education must recognize individual differences while helping each student to develop toward his or her full potential.
