It is with great pleasure that Kämmer International Bilingual School (KIBS) announces that it is recognised as an Apple Distinguished School until 2022. This title has been awarded due to the implementation of new technologies that will help students and teachers develop relevant skills for the 21st century.
Apple Distinguished Schools are centres of innovation, leadership and educational excellence that use Apple products to inspire creativity, collaboration and critical thinking. They showcase innovative uses of technology in learning, teaching, and the school environment and have documented results of academic accomplishment.
“We are very pleased to receive this award. Apple technology has long been helping our teachers to further tailor their lessons to the needs of our students,” said KIBS Managing Director Heike Eckhoff. “It allows us to take a more creative approach to content and supports the fast pace of student life in which change is embraced and new challenges are welcome.” The selection of KIBS as an Apple Distinguished School underlines the success of KIBS with an innovative and attractive learning environment that successfully motivates learners. Alongside the communication skills of our students, a joy of learning and open-mindedness are being fostered. Creativity, collaboration and critical thinking are encouraged in engaging lessons from the beginning of school with hands-on learning experiences.
Coding is an integral part of the primary school curriculum from Year 1. With iTunes U, we are able to document learning developments promptly and offer our students an individual and flexible learning experience from Year 5 onwards. Every learner has the opportunity to work independently and responsibly on interactive learning materials for up to a third of the curriculum, regardless of time and location.
