50 years of Gilmschule: A milestone for Sendling-Westpark!

Gilmstraße, 80339 München, Deutschland - The primary school on Gilmstrasse recently celebrated its 50th anniversary in July. This school was launched in 1975 to take into account the strong population growth in the southwest of Munich. [Wochenanzeiger] reports that the construction of the Großhadern Clinic and the expansion of the U6 also led to the emergence of the Gilmschule. The city council decided to create a modern school location here, since the surrounding schools could no longer keep up with the new residential areas.

In September 1975, the first children moved into the Freshly built school, and since then the Gilmschule has developed into a center for the quarter. In the 80s and 90s, it became the meeting point for the community, where plays in the gym and creative projects took place in the classrooms. The challenges that occurred during this time were, for example, the use of school containers, fire protection renovations and the Corona pandemic, which were all successfully mastered.

a home for the next generation

The Gilmschule is still a popular place for families in the area today. From mid -January, parents will be informed about the modalities of school enrollment for future first graders. A parents' evening that is expected to take place in February offers the opportunity to exchange information. The recruitment day is scheduled for March 19, 2025.

children who live six years by September 30, 2025 is compulsory schooling. But there is also flexibility: Parents can decide on a delay in compulsory schooling if their child is six years old between July 1 and September 30, 2025. This decision must be made by April 10, 2025 at the latest after a consultation.

look at the education system

In Germany, the education system, as [BPB] determines, is not uniformly regulated. Each federal state finds its own design for education policy. School compulsory usually begins with the completion of the sixth year of life and includes both full -time school duty and part -time school duty - that is, up to the age of 18, students have to remain in a school. The Gilmschule, with its relevant focus on the primary area, contributes to the formation of children and offers transfers to the secondary levels that are structured differently in Germany.

The Gilmschule is not only valued as a place of learning, but also focused on the spirit of cooperation and community. With her 50-year history, she looks back on numerous successes and has established herself as an important part of the Sendling-Westpark district. Education is very important here for everyone, and this is not only shown in the curricula, but also in the community that has formed around the school.
