The age of its students ranges from 15 to 19. After passing their final exams, a lot of our students go on to university to study life sciences, medicine, biotechnology, biology or chemistry.

Our school has gained a nationwide reputation as a centre of competence and mentoring in the field of biotechnology education at schools. We would like to contribute this know-how to our international Comenius partnership.

Workshops that offer a hands-on approach to understanding biotechnology are held at the JWS on a regular basis. Students of the JWS participate as instructors. For more details see modern biotechnology at school.
