Carolinenschule, Bochum opened
It’s Bochum’s first private elementary school and it opened Tuesday. I already reported about the project. Therefore I won’t repeat how the bilingual Carolinenschule works. It started with four classes and 45 pupils. There is space for 80 pupils but the license for the school came only 14 days before the opening.

Bilingual Elementary School in Bochum – Carolinen-Schule
This is not about an existing school but about a project to found one. The new school shall be in Bochum and name “Carolinen-Schule” after the founder Dr. Caroline von Bormann-Altmeyer. The idea of the bilingual school is to offer lessons in German and English language. This is one of the may differences to International schools. These just use English and offer German as second language.
The project aims on starting that new school in August 2009 with the first two grades. At the moment the club of the founders is still looking for a building. The club is asking for support, e.g. money and especially contacts to teachers and educators who are native speakers of English.
Offering English as language for the lessons shall not be the only benefit. The school will offer smaller classes with just 20 pupils each, a second (assistant) teacher for each class and service until 6 .o.m.
