Helene-Lange-School (Wiesbaden)

The school received much media coverage for its pedagogic methods.

[3] While 42% of all children visiting Wiesbaden schools have at least one parent born abroad, less than 10% of the Helene-Lange students do.

Enja Riegel said she would love the Helene-Lange-School to become more diverse, but that minority youngsters simply did not apply for the school.

[4] In 2002 the Helene-Lange-students participated in the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), doing well.

Breaking the rule that PISA must not be used for school-level evaluation (for which it is methodologically not suited), the media were informed and the Helene-Lange-School was announced Germany's best school.
