Come in – We’re bilingual!
We are a bilingual educational institution (German/English) with a kindergarten and a primary and secondary school with a MINT or better known as STEM focus (Mathematics, Informatics, Natural Sciences, Technology) in Berlin-Pankow.
In our kindergarten with a preschool we offer holistic and age-appropriate care, taking into account the individual inclinations and talents of the children. Through a demanding pedagogical concept, immersive bilingualism and personal attention, we ensure optimal early childhood education.
Platanus Schule Berlin is an all-day school with a primary level (Year 1 to Year 6), a lower secondary level I (Year 7 to Year 10) and a gymnasiale Oberstufe or upper secondary level II (Years 11 to 13 – currently in the process of being set up) . Our primary level and secondary level I have already successfully passed the complete approval and recognition process of the Berlin school administration for some time, our secondary level II has been approved with a first 11th grade in school year 2024/25 and is now in the usual Berlin recognition process by our school supervisory authority.
Under the roof of a venerable and listed house – the former Pankow Post Office – and in our adjacent buildings, weas well as in our modern adjacent premises, we offer ideal learning conditions, where natural curiosity and individual needs find their place. Here, children and young people can learn in peace, try things out, develop talents, deepen interests, get to know cultural diversity and internalise languages.
The kindergarten and school years are intensive and very special periods in the life of a young person and we would like to invite you and your child to spend this time with us in an international and caring community.
