Gymnasium Aulendorf

What Gymnasium Aulendorf does

Gymnasium Aulendorf is a public secondary school (Gymnasium) located in Aulendorf, Baden-Württemberg, Germany, legally operated by the State of Baden-Württemberg (Land Baden-Württemberg) and supported by the Horst-Danzer-Stiftung foundation. The school delivers the standard German Gymnasium curriculum from Klasse 5 through Klasse 12/13, culminating in the Abitur (university entrance qualification), and serves approximately 190 students in a deliberately small-scale, personal-learning environment. Its product surface spans core academic instruction, the NWT (Naturwissenschaft und Technik) science-and-technology elective from grade 8, a broad set of extracurricular AG-Angebote (Robotics, Garden, Cooking, Social, Climbing, Choir, Band, Library, Smepper), iPad-based digital learning using apps such as GarageBand and BookCreator, and recurring student exchanges with Naas CBS Secondary School in Ireland and Collège Guillaume in Conches-en-Ouche, France.

The school's underlying technology footprint is modest and not proprietary: it relies on the third-party IServ virtual school server for distance learning, assignment distribution, and teacher-student communication, iPads and consumer-grade educational apps for digital learning, and a standard WordPress-based public website for community-facing communications. There is no developer-facing API, no mobile app product, and no in-house platform engineering disclosed. Operational technology partners include Gymnasium Bad Waldsee's Kompetenzzentrum LIFEScience for shared biology laboratory access and Haus am Schlossplatz (a local senior home) for intergenerational activities through the Sozial-AG.

The business model is non-commercial: education is free of charge to students, and the institution is funded by the State of Baden-Württemberg rather than through tuition, fees, or commercial revenue. There is no pricing model, no go-to-market motion, and no investor or ownership structure; the school has no funding rounds, no M&A history, and no subsidiaries. Customer segments are limited to enrolled students and their families, with parent engagement handled through Elternbriefe, Elternvertretung, the Förderverein (parent-teacher association), and the website. School leadership comprises Studiendirektor Dr. Matthias Schönwald (authorized representative), Studiendirektorin Silke Hubig (data-protection lead), and the newly appointed Stellvertretende Schulleiterin Rita Menhofer (recruited from Gymnasium Ochsenhausen).
