Ranum Efterskole College
Ranum Efterskole College is one of the best boarding schools in Denmark. It is a contemporary, self-governing efterskole where staff and students work together to shape the curriculum and school year. It provides opportunities for both professional and personal growth as well as a secure environment that prioritizes each student's welfare.
Classes in the required subjects linked to the Danish 9th and 10th grade end-of-school exams are offered by the school. This allows practice and theory to be experienced coherently because these subjects are taught within the typical school activities. Making sure every student gets the best exam possible in all subjects—both written and oral—is a top priority.
The goal of Ranum Efterskole College is to run an autonomous, international boarding school within the confines of Denmark's current private boarding school regulations. A healthy balance between academics and a variety of extracurricular pursuits is encouraged for students, with equal emphasis placed on both athletic and cultural accomplishments.
Ranum Efterskole College is one of Denmark's largest comprehensive efterskolers, with 500 students. Living on campus, the students create a mini-town. The four primary structures that make up the school are Kaerhuset, Seminariehuset, Lien, and Ranumhus.
Rooms at Ranumhus can accommodate two to five people. Small living groups of students have TVs and lounges where they can hang out after school. The courtyard featuring a street football court, basketball court, volleyball court, and fire pit is one of Ranumhus's best features.
The layout of Kaerhuset includes apartments for 4-6 people and rooms for 2-3 people. A dining room, a gym, and common areas are available. There is a dance floor and a stage for smaller concerts at the Imagination Loft. On weekends, the students organize joint sororities and hang out in the loft.
Rooms at Seminariehuset can accommodate three to six people. Ranum Efterskole College has constructed a sizable stage for outdoor events like parties and concerts at the Tree of Life in the schoolyard. The 'Svederen' has a comfortable common area, a boulder wall, a parkour course, a gym, music studios, media, Esports, and a movie theater inside.
With three- to five-person rooms that can accommodate about thirty students, Lien is the smallest house on campus. Cozy common areas, a separate kitchen, and a gorgeous garden with lots of space for outdoor activities are all included. Lien is both a cozy retreat and a part of Seminariehuset's large community.
Every student is assigned to a contact group consisting of nine to ten members. Across the four houses, there are a total of forty contact groups. Along with eating, cooking, and cleaning together, each contact group will have its contact teacher. There will be a friendship group in one of the other houses for each contact group. Across the school, this is one way to meet people.
