History

The school is named after Anna Schmidt (1852–1929^[2]). Since 1979, it has been a UNESCO project school (UNESCO-Projektschule)^[3] and a full-time school. The school has approximately 95 teachers, 20 educators and 1,280 students.

In the academic year of 2003/2004, the duration of training to reach the Abitur was reduced to eight years, deviating from the usual procedure in Germany where secondary education ends after nine years.
