Klara-Oppenheimer-School

Klara-Oppenheimer-School is a vocational school in the heart of Lower Franconia, a region in Bavaria/Germany. We primarily teach trainees from companies. The lessons are practice-oriented and usually take place over 1,5 days. The rest of the week, students learn in their companies. The school’s qualification is equivalent to the secondary school leaving certificate Mittlere Reife and in conjunction with the traineeship it’s comparable to the high school diploma Abitur (DQR4 qualification).
