At Phorms Campus Hamburg, diversity is not just a buzzword, but a living reality. Our school community is made up of students from a variety of cultural, religious and social backgrounds. This togetherness enriches our everyday life and promotes a deep understanding of one another. We attach great importance to our pupils respecting the opinions of their peers and engaging constructively with different attitudes. Through this openness, they develop the ability to understand different perspectives and show empathy - a skill that is essential in a globalised world.
Diversity: a decisive factor for success
Studies show how important diversity is in educational institutions and society:
Better problem-solving skills: according to a study by the Harvard Business Review, diversity increases the ability to solve problems more creatively and effectively. Different perspectives contribute to the development of innovative approaches. Empathy development: UNESCO research shows that students who learn in a multicultural environment develop greater social intelligence. They are better able to empathise with others and overcome prejudices. Preparing for the global labour market: In a globalised world, cultural competence is crucial. According to a survey by McKinsey, diverse teams are more productive and achieve up to 35% higher results than homogeneous teams. Social cohesion: Data from the "School without Racism - School with Courage" network shows that schools that promote diversity help to reduce social tensions and strengthen dialogue between different groups.
Our commitment: Together against discrimination
As a proud member of the "School without Racism - School with Courage" network, we actively campaign against all forms of discrimination. Our pupils are regularly involved in projects and activities that raise awareness of diversity. Through workshops, theatre projects and intercultural days, they learn the importance of respect and openness.
Bilingual education: diversity begins with language
Our bilingual education in German and English enables children to think and communicate in two languages from an early age. This not only promotes language skills, but also an understanding of different cultures and ways of life. Our school also offers an international environment with families from over 40 nations - a reflection of the world of tomorrow.
Diversity as the basis for a better future
We are proud of our diverse community and see it as the foundation for an open and tolerant society. At Phorms Campus Hamburg, we learn that our differences make us stronger and that respect and understanding are the key to harmonious coexistence.
At Phorms Campus Hamburg, we live diversity - every day.
