German School of Barranquilla ({{lang-es|Colegio Alemán de Barranquilla}}, {{lang-de|Deutsche Schule Barranquilla}}) is a private German international school in Barranquilla, Colombia.[1] It is a German School of excellence abroad, who is officially sponsored by the Federal Republic of Germany.[2] It is the oldest German school in Colombia, and one of the only two schools in the Colombian Caribbean coast that offer an IB Diploma, or the International Baccalaureate program.[3] The School serves nursery, which starts when children are 3 years old, kindergarten, primary (grades 1-6), and senior high school (grades 7-12).[2] The institution offers a 3-6 month exchange program in Germany (when students reach Grade 10),[4] and Summer Camps to improve language immersion.[5]

The main instructional language is Spanish. As of circa 2015 under 1% of students are native German speakers.[6]

History

The school first opened on February 9, 1913, making it the oldest German school in Colombia. Its first facility was a tenement building in the center of Barranquilla,[7] and initially the school used rented facilities. It moved into its own building in 1930.[8]

The school originally used German as the language of instruction,[6] and it used a German-Spanish bilingual program.[9] In 1940 the pre-World War II school reached its peak student population of 253. 65% of the students were Colombians, 26% were Germans, and the remaining 9% were of different nationalities.[8]

It closed in 1942 due to political reasons stemming from World War II,[8] it did not reopen until 1956.[6] In the interim there were secret classes held at the Colegio del Prado. When the school officially reopened with 255 students,[9] it became a Spanish-medium school,[6] while German was only an academic subject. Students were required to use the Colombian curriculum. In 1957 the student body increased to 345. The first post-war teachers from Germany came in 1959. In 1961 an inspection committee from West Germany looked at the school. That year the first post-war graduates finished their studies. In October 1961 the National Ministry of Education officially acknowledged the German School of Barranquilla.[9]

The West German government eventually canceled its financial aid till since German was no longer the medium of instruction.[9] It did, however, give financial aid to the construction of the building which opened in 1963.[10]

In the 2000s the school moved to its current location, midway between the center of Barranquilla and the center of Puerto Colombia.[11]
