About Us

Our German-English Phorms Campus Berlin Prenzlauer Berg is conveniently located in a central location. Children learn and grow under one roof in our newly opened nursery and primary school. The framework for our international orientation is our bilingual concept, which we implement according to the immersion method. The campus, built in 2022/23, with its light-flooded inner courtyard, offers our inter-national and dynamic community a learning and living space that is characterised above all by its family-like atmosphere.
Phorms Berlin Prenzlauer Berg is part of the Phorms Education SE network of bilingual schools and nurseries, that has been enriching the educational landscape in Germany since 2006.
