If you have a secondary school leaving certificate, you can obtain the general higher education entrance qualification (Abitur) at a vocational grammar school. Vocational grammar schools are available in the following specialisations:

• Agricultural science
• Biotechnology
• Nutritional science
• Health and social services
• Information and communication technology
• Technical science with a focus on
  • Civil Engineering
  • Electrical Engineering
  • Mechanical Engineering
  • Design and media technology
• Economics

As a rule, an informal application is sufficient. However, it is better to find out in advance from the school management about the application formalities.

The application for admission must contain the following information

• the specialisation of the vocational grammar school
• the preferred specialisation in the field of technical science
• a declaration that the pupil has not been refused admission to the Abitur examination and has not yet taken part in the Abitur examination to obtain the general higher education entrance qualification
• a declaration if the above-mentioned special circumstances apply (illness, age limit)

The following documents must be submitted with the application:

• a certified copy of the certificate that proves the admission requirements. If this is not yet available, a copy of the last half-year report card must be submitted. The certified copy of the report card with proof of the admission requirements must then be submitted immediately.
• a complete curriculum vitae in tabular form.

The following data is collected for enrolment:

• Surname
• First name
• Date of birth
• Place of birth
• Gender
• Your address
• Telephone number, emergency
• Nationality
• Religious affiliation
• Date of first school enrolment and details of the amount of time spent studying the respective foreign language during the school career
• Type and degree of disability and chronic illnesses, insofar as these are documented in a suitable form and are relevant to the education.

Foreign language

Only students who have been taught English continuously from the 5th to the 10th grade can attend the Berufliches Gymnasium.

School-leaving certificate

The prerequisite for admission to grade 11 of the Berufliches Gymnasium is the Realschulabschluss or an equivalent intermediate school-leaving certificate, provided that

• the grade "good" was awarded at least twice in German, maths and English and in a subject assigned to the specialisation in the corresponding final certificate and the average grade calculated from the grades of all subjects in this final certificate is at least 2.5 or
• the average grade of the final certificate of the vocational or specialised vocational school, which proves successful completion of vocational training of at least two years' duration, is at least 2.5.

For the admission requirements, the subject Biology is assigned to the specialisations

• Agriculture,
• Biotechnology and
• Health and Social Services,

the subject Chemistry to the specialisation

• Nutritional Science,

computer Science to the specialisations

• Information and Communication Technology and
• Economics

and the subject of Physics to the

• Technical science.

Pupils from the general grammar school fulfil the admission requirements if they transfer from year 10 to year 11 of the general grammar school to the vocational grammar school.

A school qualification acquired abroad is deemed equivalent to the Realschulabschluss or intermediate school leaving certificate, provided that it has been recognised as equivalent by the school supervisory authority. The admission requirements are met if the average grade calculated from all subjects of this qualification is at least 2.5.

Applicants who do not fulfil the grade requirements but whose average grade for all subjects is better than 3.0 can also be admitted to vocational grammar schools if their aptitude is determined in a subject-oriented aptitude interview

Students will not be admitted,

• who have already been refused admission to the Abitur examination or
• who have already failed the Abitur examination for the general higher education entrance qualification.

Age limit

Pupils may not have reached the age of 18 at the start of the school year in year 11 and may not have reached the age of 21 if they have completed vocational training.

Exceptions

The school management may allow exceptions to the general admission requirements

• in special circumstances for which the pupil is not responsible (in particular prolonged illness),
• if the pupil has completed a voluntary social, educational or ecological year
• on the basis of a federal voluntary service or voluntary military service or
• if the student has completed a stay abroad of at least six and no more than twelve months within the last three years prior to admission in order to improve their foreign language skills.

Transfer to another vocational grammar school

Pupils can only transfer to another vocational grammar school for an important reason. At the end of year 11, a transfer is only possible to a vocational grammar school with the same specialisation. The same applies to students in grades 12 and 13, but they must also provide proof from the receiving vocational grammar school that they can continue the courses to be taken and bring them in.

none

Please contact the school in question for information on the costs of training at an independent school.

If you are already of legal age, you can enrol at the school yourself. If you are not yet of legal age, your parents must do this for you.

Please note: Both parents must register together if they have joint custody. If one of the partners is unable to attend, a power of attorney and a copy of the absent parent's ID must be presented.

Selection procedure

• If the capacity of the vocational grammar school cannot cope with the number of applicants and no neighbouring vocational grammar schools in the same subject area can accept the students, a selection procedure will take place.

Decision

• The decision on admission and the change of school as well as other related decisions are made by the school management of the vocational school centre. You will be informed of the result in writing.
• The decision on admission is made subject to the proviso that you submit any missing leaving certificate or promotion certificate and that classes are actually formed at the vocational grammar school.

Application: by 31 March of the year in which admission to the school is intended.

Please note: Applications received after the application deadline will only be considered in the selection process once a decision has been made on all applications for admission received on time.

Decision on admission to the Berufliches Gymnasium: by 15 May.
