Primary school registration deadline for the 2027/2028 school year has been set
An exciting time begins for many Aachen families in the fall: their children move from daycare to elementary school. There are still a few months to go before the information events, open days or registration. Nevertheless, all parents concerned should already mark the period between Monday, November 2 and Friday, November 13 in their calendars in red. During these two weeks, all children who will be required to attend school for the 2027/2028 school year must be registered. When a child becomes of school age, parents or legal guardians registered with the Aachen Residents' Registration Office will receive a letter from the Youth and Schools Department in August 2026 asking them to register their child at an elementary school. Children can be enrolled at the nearest municipal elementary school, nearest municipal denominational elementary school or at an elementary school of their choice.
Information about individual elementary schools and their contact details can be found on each school’s website. Up-to-date information about the schools, information sessions, and everything you need to know about the registration process is available at www.aachen.de/schule—including a map of the city showing all schools and a calendar of key dates. This applies to both public and private schools.
