What Berufliche Schule des Kreises Ostholstein in Eutin does

The Berufliche Schule des Kreises Ostholstein in Eutin is a public vocational school (Kreisschule) operated by the Kreis Ostholstein district in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. Established circa 1974, the school operates across four locations (Eutin Wilhelmstraße, Eutin Holstenweg, Bad Schwartau, and Bad Malente) and serves approximately 2,600 students with 150 teaching staff, producing around 800 graduates annually. Its educational portfolio spans the full vocational pathway from basic qualifications (ESA, Hauptschulabschluss) through to the Abitur, including dual Berufsschule (vocational school) programs alongside employer apprenticeships, vocational preparation (AV-SH, BGJ), Berufsfachschule levels I and III, Fachoberschule, Berufsoberschule, and a Berufliches Gymnasium with four specialization tracks (Nutrition; Health and Social Affairs; Technology; Economics).

The institution operates as a Landesberufsschule (state vocational school) at the Bad Malente campus for specialized commercial and industrial occupations (booksellers, real estate agents, tourism and leisure, travel agency, milk technology, dairy laboratory), drawing students statewide via block-scheduling of 5-6 weeks per year with optional dormitory accommodation. It holds Europaschule certification, enabling Erasmus+ international mobility for students, apprentices, and teachers. Core technology consists of standard educational infrastructure: a website hosted on IONOS, Matomo and IONOS WebAnalytics for traffic analysis, Moodle as learning management system, WebUntis for timetabling, and NetMan for Schools for administration. External integrations include Google Maps for location display (consent-gated under GDPR) and the standard IONOS analytics stack.

The school is publicly funded by the Kreis Ostholstein district government and governed under Schleswig-Holstein state school law; tuition is free (schulgeldfrei) and learning materials are provided within regulatory limits. The school's sponsor (Schulträger) is Kreis Ostholstein, represented by Landrat Timo Gaarz. It is not a commercial entity: revenue is not market-generated but budget-allocated, and there are no private equity, venture, or external ownership interests. Customer-facing distribution is via direct student enrollment with application forms (Anmeldebögen) submitted by end of February annually, plus an institutional website and newsletter for outreach.
