Dietrich-Bonhoeffer-Bildungscampus

What Dietrich-Bonhoeffer-Bildungscampus does

The Dietrich-Bonhoeffer-Bildungscampus (DBBC) is a private all-day school campus in Bad Aibling, Bavaria, operated by the non-profit Diakonisches Institut für Bildung und Soziales gGmbH. The campus bundles four state-approved school types under one roof — Mittelschule, Realschule, Fachoberschule (FOS), and Cambridge International School (CIS) — yielding five state-recognized qualifications, and complements them with a language academy (Akademie) and a boarding school (Deutsche Fördereinrichtung für Internat, DFI). It serves approximately 450-500 students drawn primarily from Bad Aibling and the broader Rosenheim region, with an international branch in Jaipur, India. The institution is explicitly governed by Christian values inspired by Dietrich Bonhoeffer, delivered through a chapel and theology-in-the-curriculum model.

The educational model is built on the Ganztagskonzept (full-day supervision) under which students complete academic work during school hours with typically no homework assigned afterward, paired with an Individualisierungsprogramm (Indi-Angebote) of 4x100 minutes weekly covering sports, STEM, creative arts, music, languages, and social studies. An extensive co-curricular sports program — ice hockey, basketball, tennis, golf, football, and equestrian — operates as both a differentiator and a recruitment channel. The technology stack is a BYOD Windows tablet model running Microsoft Office 365 Education (Teams, OneNote) for collaboration, with interactive touchscreens in classrooms and EduPage for school administration; IT services are outsourced to ITOnova.

Revenue is generated primarily from recurring tuition fees that vary by school type and selected individualization options, governed by a publicly available Schul- und Gebührensatzung. A branded school shop selling clothing and supplies provides supplementary revenue. The go-to-market motion is direct-to-consumer: family enrollment, campus tours, Schnuppertage (trial days), and Schnuppertraining (trial training), supplemented by parent advisory council referrals and a presence on Facebook and Instagram. No enterprise or B2B distribution channels are present.
