Deutsche Schule Bukarest (DSBU; Romanian: Școala Germană București) is a German international school located at 20G Coralilor Street, Bucharest, Romania,[1] established in 2007.
It includes a nursery school (Kinderkrippe), kindergarten, elementary school (Grundschule), and high school (Gymnasium).[2] It is accredited by the German government's Central Agency for German Schools Abroad, as a Deutsche Schule im Ausland ("German School Abroad"), being one of currently 143 such schools established internationally to promote the German culture and language in other countries.[3]
DSBU should not be confused with Bukarest's historical German school, established before 1778, the year of its first documented mention[4] (a school researcher even speaks of proof going back to 1752) and currently called German Goethe College Bucharest , once the confessional school of the German Evangelical community. It has been an important and attractive educational institution for the entire population of the capital city for over a century, reaching 2000 enrolled students and above before WWI and in the 1970s.
There are also two recently established private German-language schools, Zeppelin Schule (est. 2012; www.zeppelinschule.ro), and the Hermann Oberth International German School in Voluntari suburb (est. 2012; www.scoala-germana.ro/en).
