Kunigundenschule Lauf an der Pegnitz

The Kunigundenschule in Lauf an der Pegnitz is a middle school with 10 classes and 180 pupils. There are 26 teachers. The school has a strong emphasis on Career orientation and practical subjects and the integration of pupils with a migration background. As a middle school in Bavaria, we offer the subjects specified and worked out in the curriculum in the area of professional orientation. These are divided into social, technology and business & communication. Here, the various skills and talents of the pupils are specifically promoted. The individual professional subjects are all taught two hours in the seventh grade. In this way, the pupils can get a first impression of the field of activity of the respective subject. From the eighth grade onwards, the pupils then choose one of the subjects for their further way of school and therefore already decide on the first subject of their final exam in the ninth school year. The ninth year of school ends with a project exam, among other things, in which they demonstrate their skills in the chosen subject. The teaching time in the eighth and ninth grades is four hours with 45 minutes per week. All theoretical and above all the practical contents of the professional subject are taught and applied here. It should be emphasized that all three subjects live from the practical experience of the student himself and are also oriented in this way. In many small projects, content is applied, repeated and practiced so that the pupils are familiar and can of course use them on their own. These include the classic Microsoft Office 365 applications such as WORD, EXCEL or POWERPOINT. During digitization in particular, it is very important to us as a school to train the pupils in the area of online presence and to make them fit using it. Microsoft TEAMS and OUTLOOK are embedded daily in the lessons of the various subjects. It goes without saying that the subject of business & communication attaches great importance to these online tools and uses them in every lesson. In this way, the pupils receive all content both offline and online. Furthermore, we use well-known online platforms of various kinds so that the pupils are provided with a wide range of teaching options. Our pupils like to use these.
