European School, Munich
The European School, Munich is one of thirteen European Schools and one of three in Germany. First established in 1977, it moved to its current location in Neuperlach, a district in the south-east of Munich, in the state of Bavaria in 1981. The ESM was principally established to serve the schooling needs of children of the staff of the European Patent Office — the executive body of the European Patent Organisation. However, enrolment is open to other prospective students. The school offers the European Baccalaureate as its secondary leaving qualification.
