School sites within the city are witnessing events of unspecified nature.
In a significant announcement made today by School Department Head Burkhard Hintzsche, Düsseldorf has revealed plans to invest approximately two billion euros in school construction over the next five years. This investment will fund the construction of new grammar schools and comprehensive schools, including a new grammar school in Grafental and the expansion of the Comenius Gymnasium in Oberkassel.
The new grammar school in Grafental will provide nine-year Abitur programs, similar to the Comenius Gymnasium, and is expected to accommodate the growing demand for school places in Düsseldorf. However, the exact site for the new school has not been specified in the announcement.
Meanwhile, the Comenius Gymnasium in Oberkassel is currently being expanded due to the increasing demand on the left bank of the Rhine. The expansion is necessary because students now take nine years to reach their Abitur instead of eight.
It's worth noting that the city of Düsseldorf is not just focusing on Grafental and Oberkassel. The construction of the new grammar school in Grafental is one of several ongoing school construction projects in the city.
While there is no detailed information about a citywide plan for additional school construction projects, it's clear that Düsseldorf is committed to improving its educational facilities to meet the needs of its growing student population.
In a separate development, Sonar Real Estate has taken over the commercial management of three office buildings in Düsseldorf's Medienhafen district. This pertains to office real estate, not educational facilities, and does not provide any further insight into Düsseldorf’s school construction plans.
For the most up-to-date and official details about Düsseldorf’s school construction plans, it would be best to consult the city’s education department or official municipal announcements. Additionally, the school site on Heidelberger Street is currently undergoing demolition and new construction, providing further context about the school changes in Düsseldorf.
The new grammar school in Grafental, financed by Düsseldorf's two billion euro school construction investment, will offer nine-year Abitur programs, similar to the Comenius Gymnasium, focusing on education-and-self-development. Additionally, the city of Düsseldorf, through its school construction projects, is committed to improving its educational facilities to meet the needs of its growing student population.
