Five years of Dresden University School - school community looks back on milestones and thanks supporters
A particularly successful surprise at the first school induction ceremony at Dresden University School: the sugar cones floated to the new pupils in a zeppelin.
"The School of the Future is Here – the University School Dresden Opens its Doors" is the headline of one of the first reports on the joint school trial by TU Dresden and the City of Dresden:
" The University School Dresden celebrated its inauguration at the beginning of the 2019 school year on August 19. From now on, nearly 200 pupils in grades 1, 2, 3 and 5 will learn together and receive the rest of their schooling at the new primary and secondary school in Cämmerswalder Straße. Following the development phase, set to continue through 2024, this figure will rise to 750 pupils."
Exactly five years later, on August 19, 2024, the current school year will start for 830 pupils. The development phase continues, as the original primary and secondary school has now become one of the first public community schools in Saxony. By 2026, the number of pupils in grades 1 to 12 will have grown to around 1,000 children and young people.
In August, the school community - including pupils and parents, teachers and researchers, students and volunteers - looks back on the milestones and pays tribute to the important supporters in the first third of the school trial to become a "school of the future". All articles can be found on the university school website "Aktuelles" and under #5JahreUnischuleTUD on the project's social media channels.
