The individual promotion of high-performing and potentially gifted pupils is one of the central tasks of the schools. At Gymnasium, the country has established special classes for cognitively gifted young people. For each of the four school departments, there is a supra-regional promotion class from year 5 onwards. Eight schools in the state take part in the federal-state initiative " Performance makes school". 14 profile schools offer pupils special educational opportunities in the areas of Humanistic Education / Old Languages, Low German and Mathematics / Natural Sciences (MINT).
