A positive environment

The about 850 students all study for the Danish STX (The Gymnasium – general academic preparatory studies) which more or less corresponds to British A-levels implemented in our different specialized study areas. The 90 teachers and 15 staff all create a special environment and atmosphere in which the students can learn and grow. A positive environment is crucial for learning, we believe, and for developing the academic proficiency, international outlook and democratic traditions that the school aims at giving all the students.

Study trip

As part of the internationalization of the curriculum, all students participate in at least one study trip usually to destinations in Europe. On the study trip the students do field work, experience the local culture first hand or practise their language skills when meeting other students or locals.

Several of the study programs have an extra international dimension which involves a study trip each year also to overseas destinations and numerous interdisciplinary themes and projects on international themes.
