The Musikalisch-Sportliches Gymnasium in Leipzig is an all-day school that has developed a diverse and varied range of activities for its pupils outside of the “core lessons”. In this way, we want to promote social learning even more, strengthen personal responsibility, teach cultural and learning techniques as well as social skills and, last but not least, improve individual performance.
Our Concept
Our concept is geared towards differentiated support for pupils. Performance-differentiated and individual support, in which the pupils take joint responsibility for their learning process, creates the best conditions for the adolescents to develop their abilities and talents. Our all-day program therefore complements the opportunities for individual support and consolidation beyond the normal lessons.
Motor and musical/artistic activities promote core skills such as the ability to work in a team, take responsibility and be creative in a very special way. In addition, they provide a balance to superficial cognitive demands and help to develop a healthy lifestyle and a culturally educated, expressive personality.
Activities
As part of the full-day care, we offer working groups (“AGs”) that take place in the afternoon. Participation in all working groups is free of charge. Whether a particular AG actually takes place depends on the students’ choices and the resulting number of participants, and will be announced shortly after enrollment at the beginning of the school year.
Enrollment is for the entire school year and becomes binding with registration. The selected activity must then be attended regularly.
Possible activities include:
Cirkus | Open Studio |
Freestyle Swimming | Volleyball |
Newcomer Band | Chess |
Campus Football | School Spirit |
Jazz / Improvisation | Sustainability |
Drawing Lab | Japanese |
Student Newspaper | Band Salomon 6 |
After-school leisure and homework supervision
Every day, all pupils can use the leisure area independently during breaks, free periods and in the afternoon until 17:00. There they can, for example, play table football, play games, read or do homework together. In addition, the campus hall with student laptops (also during lesson times) is open for independent (quiet) work. The leisure area and campus hall are supervised by a member of staff on a voluntary social year. Depending on the weather, the outdoor areas are of course also available.
