Education in GI-Land is highly centralised. It is divided into three stages:
- primary education, consisting of Kindergarten and Grundschule (primary school)
- secondary education, consisting of Gymnasium (grammar school), Realschule (real school) and Mittelschule (middle school). Students normally only visit one of these school types.
- tertiary education, consisting of the possibilities to go to university, college or serve an apprenticeship.
There is also a school type called Sonderschule (special school), in which students that have a disadvantage due to disabilities get provided their right on education. There are regular debates to abolish special schools and instead work for better inclusion of such students.
Education in GI-Land is provided for by the state tuition-free. Home-schooling is not allowed, the government reasoning, that the child's right to a complete education is above the right of the parents to withhold certain information to their offspring.
