Education System in Germany – Higher Studies in Germany for Indian Students

The Education system is controlled by the Länder (states), which in turn is monitored by the federal government of Germany. Once the students finish with the primary schooling, they are admitted to secondary schools. There are various options available to choose, among the secondary schools – Gymnasium (grammar school), Fachoberschule (admission for higher secondary), Realschule (until grade ten), Mittelschule (elementary school) and Gesamtschule (comprehensive school).

After the higher secondary schooling, the students enroll for the Berufsschule (vocational school).
