In classes with 25 to 30 students, there is hardly any time for individual attention, answering questions, or personal conversations. Many students lose interest in the lessons and stop paying attention without the teacher noticing or being able to do anything about it. At the Kurpfalz Internat, we want to have time for each individual. Therefore, our classes never have more than ten students. Our teachers are interested in their students and take advantage of the small class size to recognize each person’s strengths and weaknesses. ## Every student has a part of the lesson. Everyone is important. That our students can develop their potentials and improve their performance is thanks to effective teaching and the focused working atmosphere in the classroom. Here, everyone can ask questions and everyone is asked. Our experienced teachers take the time for each individual, review, explain, and are patient. Thanks to the small classes, the teacher can constantly check whether the material has been understood. Knowledge gaps brought from home can usually be addressed through additional tutoring sessions and support measures. The completion of homework has a fixed place in the daily schedule. A supervised study time in the afternoon, where homework is completed, complements the daily instruction. Here, the material covered in lessons is deepened through independent work. Higher-performing students have fewer mandatory study times, while students needing support have more. Those who can learn independently and demonstrate this with good grades complete their homework independently in their room starting from the 10th grade and take responsibility for their learning success. ## Our experience from over 60 years of Kurpfalz boarding school: Already after a short time, new successes occur that motivate. The experience that effort is worthwhile and that it can be fun to be a good student is for many young people the key to a successful life. ![](https://www.kurpfalz-internat.de/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/11/Williams.avif) > The personal development of my students is particularly dear to me. The small class gives me the opportunity to get to know each student individually and to support them individually. We learn together and motivate each other.

We are happy to tell you more about the advantages of learning and living at the Kurpfalz Boarding School – just give us a call. Ms. Krystyna Hradecký [+49 6223 961 138](tel:+496223961138) [elternberatung@kurpfalz-internat.de](mailto:elternberatung@kurpfalz-internat.de) At Kurpfalz Internat, we guarantee that there are a maximum of 10 students in a class. Small classes allow for a focused learning atmosphere where no one gets lost. Our teachers can specifically address the needs of each individual, nurture talents, and recognize weaknesses early on. This way, students receive the full attention of the teacher, work more concentrated, and benefit more from the lessons. In public schools, classes with more than 25 students are not uncommon. Teachers often lack the time to recognize the individual needs and to promote children according to their talents. Those who sit in the classroom at the Kurpfalz boarding school quickly realize that the lessons in the small class are more intense and challenging. Here, everyone can ask questions, and everyone is asked questions. Each student has a part of the lesson. Often, classes in private schools are a bit smaller. But we are proud to guarantee the smallest classes in Germany. From the 11th student onwards, the class will be split. Promised. More calm. More concentration. More support. Every student at Kurpfalz Boarding School has space for questions, ideas, and feedback – this strengthens motivation, self-confidence, and performance. Our teachers focus on opportunities rather than highlighting deficiencies, and they help students regain lost self-confidence and develop individual potential. Community grows quickly here: Everyone knows each other, students help each other, and exclusion has no place. Responsibility and respect shape the togetherness. We focus on motivation, willingness to learn, and social interaction. We are not looking for perfect students, but curious young people with potential. Those who want to show more than their last report card are welcome with us. The Kurpfalz boarding school admits students at the beginning of the school year and also during the school year when school and boarding places are available. Our parent advisor, Mrs. Hradecký, would be happy to consult with you by phone about admission possibilities or to schedule an in-person consultation appointment.
