ABCM-Zweisprachigkeit
ABCM-Zweisprachigkeit is a network of bilingual community schools, located in the regions of Alsace, Moselle and Baden-Württemberg. The teaching is given in French and German on a 50-50 basis.
These schools aim to revitalise regional languages that are under threat, as well as offer more opportunities for pupils thanks to the dual knowledge of French and German.
At first, teaching in these schools was done in standardised French and German, including the school located in Baden-Württemberg. Since 2004, the schools have been gradually proposing the teaching of the local dialect, Alsatian or Lorraine Franconian, depending on the school location. More and more ABCM-schools are integrating immersion classes in the local regional language.Situation
