Application details16.07.2025
Many families are now beginning to plan their UK boarding experience for entry in 2026. Once the school decision is made, the next step is often an entrance test. For students who are unable or prefer not to sit this test at their current school, we now offer a simple and practical solution: thanks to our new partnership with Berlitz, Glasmacher families can take the test under supervision at one of approximately 50 Berlitz language centres across Germany – with flexible scheduling, on-site invigilation and secure digital upload of all documents. Appointments can be arranged directly via testing@berlitz.de. Please mention “Glasmacher” when contacting Berlitz – our families receive a small discount.
Berlitz also offers a variety of course formats in its core area of English language training, with a focus on spoken fluency – especially helpful for students heading off to the UK this September who want to make the most of the remaining summer weeks to prepare and build confidence in spoken English. Options include one-to-one lessons or small-group courses, available online or in person. For course details, families can reach out directly to kids@berlitz.de, again using the reference “Glasmacher”.

This weekend, under sunny skies and with around one hundred guests in attendance, we hosted our very first Career Day – and were thrilled by the inspiring conversations with so many engaged families.
What comes after school?
To help answer this question, our key partners in academic counselling, personal development and Gap Year planning joined us in Munich. Through individual conversations and hands-on advice, they offered valuable guidance and shared practical next steps. In three themed panels, they outlined ways young people can navigate their path with clarity, confidence and a sense of purpose.
Panel 1 – Study & Career Choices in the Age of AI
Struss & Claussen and mjndset explored how AI is reshaping the skillsets required for university and work. Future-oriented competencies such as creative problem-solving, resilience and emotional intelligence are becoming increasingly essential. Citing current programme offerings– for example at TU Munich – they showed how universities are already responding and integrating new formats to support skill development.
Panel 2 – A Gap Year as a Catalyst for Personal Growth
St. Clare’s Oxford demonstrated how young people can gain direction and confidence through academic Gap Year programmes combined with expert career guidance.
Explorientation highlighted how a clearly defined personal goal can form the foundation for a fully tailored Gap Year – as an individual learning journey with academic, hands-on and personal elements.
wayers showcased how international experiences – from wildlife conservation in Asia to work and travel in Australia – can strengthen adaptability and broaden perspectives in lasting ways.
Panel 3 – Studying Abroad: A Compact Overview
The University Guys spoke about the importance of finding a university that fits not only your academic interests but also your personality and vision for life – and how an authentic application can truly make a difference.
StudiMed encouraged students to think beyond borders: studying medicine in Europe is possible even without top grades – with the right preparation for entrance exams and reliable on-site support.

Choosing the right school for a stay in the UK can be a significant challenge. It’s not just about finding a school with the right academic, athletic, and artistic programs—it’s also about considering the school's ethos, values, size, and location.
Our goal is to understand your child's aspirations, strengths, and interests in order to identify schools that are the best match for them.
But our service doesn’t stop at placement. We continue to be your point of contact for everything from visas, travel arrangements, and pocket money to school uniforms and other practical matters. We're here to support you and your child throughout their entire stay.
What our students say: „The teachers were amazing. They were so interested in their subject und you could always go to them for advice. They knew everything and the lessons were always really lively."
