International School Makes Thuringia More Attractive as a Business Location

Entrepreneurs and employees from all over the world live with their families in Thuringia and feel comfortable here – one reason for this is the Thuringia International School – Weimar (ThIS), which offers its students lessons in English by international teachers. ThIS is an important location factor for the State of Thuringia.

The International School in Weimar opened its doors almost twenty years ago. Around 320 pupils attend the facility and can complete all school levels from preschool to Abitur (IB diploma). The curriculum is adapted to a teaching system that is valid in more than 5,000 international schools worldwide. This enables smooth changing of schools across continents. The teaching staff brings together teachers from 15 countries, and ThIS degrees are nationally and internationally recognized. The International School always maintains resources for children of professionals. Families from abroad who settle in Thuringia can find free school placements even at short notice, and local companies can recruit foreign specialists at any time, boasting the offer of international education for their children.
