John Buchan School was a middle school operated by the Service Children's Education located in the ward of Sennelager in Paderborn, Germany. It catered to children aged 9–13 of military personnel and civilian employees in Paderborn as well as Detmold and Rinteln.
History[]
John Buchan School was built in 1974. It was named after Scottish novelist and politician John Buchan.[1]
School life[]
Like all SCE schools, it followed the National Curriculum and was subject to Ofsted inspections. Most children transferred to King's School in Gütersloh, a 45-minute drive north west of Paderborn, to continue their secondary education. John Buchan School maintained ties with the local state school Goerdeler-Gymnasium and the community through performances and projects. It was also frequented by University of Paderborn students keen on learning about the British education system.[1]
