As of the academic year 2010/2011, Berlin has a two-tier school system consisting of the Gymnasium (high school) and integrated secondary schools. On the basis of data provided by an ethnographically oriented research project, the authors examine the perception of this re-organization and the resulting challenges in a socio-economically weak district of Berlin. It becomes apparent that the equality of the two types of school repeatedly proclaimed in the educational-political discussion and usually grounded on the fact that, in principle, both schools provide the opportunity to achieve matriculation standard is primarily dependent on the conditions prevailing in the respective locations.
