Gymnasium Klosterneuburg International School

vienna·Austria·The Bilingual Programme follows the Austrian curriculum for secondary schools. English begins in Grade 1 and is gradually used in more subjects; by Grade 4 students can follow lessons taught entirely in English. In the upper school, students may complete the Austrian school leaving exam and can also earn the International Baccalaureate Diploma as part of the bilingual track. The programme teaches a third foreign language from Grade 5, and Latin is offered in a reduced form that still meets university requirements. The IB component includes six subjects with higher and standard levels, plus core elements such as Theory of Knowledge, the Extended Essay, and CAS; the timetable is tailored to integrate both curricula and at least seven hours of IB courses are chosen according to the student's interests.
