ALEA SCHOOL

School profile

our main areas of focus

Media & Communication

There is a strong focus on teaching communication skills – this aspiration is brought to life in the bilingual curriculum, in the IB methodology, and throughout ALEA school life with the school clubs, excursions, and exchange programs.

Natural history

The attitude towards nature is manifested in the focus on natural history: beyond imparting knowledge, ALEA SCHOOL gives space to the subject of natural history, for example in the School Club Botany, in its close cooperation with the Senckenberg Society for Natural History, and simply through its location in the Spessart Wonder Forest.

sports

ALEA SCHOOL attaches great importance to developing active, mature, and responsible personalities—sport, with its power to shape individuals and bring people together, is therefore the third key focus of ALEA SCHOOL.

IB Middle Years Programme (MYP)

The IB MYP is an internationally recognized educational program offered by the International Baccalaureate (IB) Organization for students aged 11 to 16. It combines academic depth with the development of practical life skills.


Holistic Learning
The program links traditional school subjects to real-world contexts—from global issues to social responsibility.


Critical Thinking
Students learn not only facts, but above all how to conduct independent research, ask critical questions, and solve complex problems.


International Focus
It provides optimal preparation for advanced international credentials (such as the IB Diploma) and promotes intercultural understanding and multilingualism.

Scholarship framework conditions

In principle, anyone can apply for a scholarship. The award committee will take various criteria into account when selecting the scholarship holders: First and foremost, the economic eligibility of an applicant family. This is based on the average household income (approx. €70,000) in the Main-Kinzig district and the applicant confirms that they have a lower household income. Voluntary commitment, special achievements or a particularly convincing application are also taken into account.

When applying for a scholarship, applicants must provide basic information, a letter of motivation and a letter of recommendation from a (class) teacher. After submission, the awarding committee will review the application and contact the applicants regarding the next steps.

At the present moment, two scholarship programs have already been confirmed.

  1. The Norbert Strauss partial scholarship
    5x per year
    Covers €400 of the school fees
  2. The Bad Orb full scholarship
    2x per year
    Covers the entire school fees

Further scholarship programs are currently being developed.

There will be both full and partial scholarships. Depending on the type of scholarship, either all or part of the school fees will be covered by the scholarship. Both scholarship models cover tuition fees up to the 10th grade to the extent indicated.
