Approximately 102,000 general education graduates in Baden-Württemberg by the end of the academic year
In the year 2024, approximately 102,000 school leaving certificates were issued in Baden-Württemberg from general education schools. However, the exact number of students who left these schools during that year is not specified in the available data.
Of these graduates, 7,531 did not receive a Hauptschulabschluss, the most basic school-leaving certificate in the region. It's worth noting that no students from this group obtained a university entrance qualification. On the contrary, the rest of these students obtained a general education certificate, the details of which are not provided.
Interestingly, around 1,000 students who did not receive a Hauptschulabschluss achieved their certificate in the "Intellectual Development" special needs focus area. Another 2,500 students from this group obtained their certificates in the "Learning" special needs focus area. Unfortunately, the search results do not provide specific information about the number of students who obtained vocational qualifications or the distribution of school leaving certificates in other special needs focus areas.
It's important to note that the number of students who obtained university entrance qualifications (30,000) is greater than the number of students who did not receive a Hauptschulabschluss (7,531). Among these university-bound students, approximately 370 achieved Fachhochschulreife, a specific type of university entrance qualification.
The most common type of qualification among the graduates was intermediate qualifications, although the exact number of students who obtained these is not specified.
For more precise and detailed data on the number of students leaving general education schools, the distribution of school leaving certificates, university entrance qualification numbers, and special needs education statistics in Baden-Württemberg, it is recommended to consult official Baden-Württemberg education reports or statistics releases, which are typically published on the Ministry of Education Baden-Württemberg website or associated statistical agencies, some months after the school year ends.
Among the graduates, some students engaged in other forms of education-and-self-development instead of pursuing university entrance qualifications, as the number of students who did not receive a Hauptschulabschluss totalled 7,531. Furthermore, from this group of students, a notable portion (around 3,500) chose learning in the "Learning" special needs focus area for their certificate.
