Secondary schools and grammar schools introduce themselves
Education fair on 11 November, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., Messe Chemnitz, Hall 2
On Saturday, 11 November, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., interested third and fourth grade students and their families are invited to the 13th Chemnitz Education Fair at Messe Chemnitz, Hall 2. Numerous secondary schools and grammar schools in the city will be represented with their own stands and will be presenting their concepts.
Admission and parking are free of charge. For the first time, childcare will be offered for smaller siblings, supported by the Vocational School Centre for Health and Social Services.
The aim of the education fair is to provide an overview of secondary schools in the city of Chemnitz. Which school suits the child best? Secondary school or a grammar school? Should it be a state or public school? What options are there after leaving school? Teachers and students from secondary schools can help answer these questions.
In addition to representatives from municipal secondary schools and grammar schools in the city of Chemnitz as well as representatives from independent schools, the City of Chemnitz Education Authority and the State Office for Schools and Education, Chemnitz site, will also be present. There will also be a joint stand of the municipal vocational school centres.
At the exhibition stands, the schools will present their special features, their educational offerings such as study groups and all-day programmes, their options for individual support in the event of learning difficulties and the promotion of gifted students. They will provide information about which school offers which foreign language and enable initial contact with the schools' teachers and pupils.
At the joint stand of the vocational school centres, information will be provided on the options available after leaving secondary school, as the Abitur is also possible there. Representatives from the education authority will be on hand to answer questions about school transport and pro-rata reimbursement options. The State Office for Schools and Education will provide information on school careers, educational pathways and qualifications in general.
