Abstract	One of the most important characteristics of the German educational system is still the sharp distinction between general education and vocational training. The structure of the educational system requires the student to choose very early whether he or she wants vocational training or university education. From the point of view of educational theory, school types may be differentiated according to whether they guide their students towards general education or vocational training. In the ideal case the students attend a 'Gymnasium' (similar to grammar school) if they intend to go to university later - they gain "education". If it is not the university that they want, they go to a 'Hauptschule' or a 'Realschule' (similar to secondary modern) in order to start vocational training within the dual system - those students gain some sort of "basic general education" (including one foreign language). 'Hauptschule' and 'Realschule' are meant to provide general education as well as preparation for vocational training. Although this overall structure remains unchanged, several "mixtures" have been established meanwhile by individual 'Länder'. (DIPF/Orig.).
