Austria

In Austria, too, there is a neo-humanist school tradition, established by Hermann Bonitz, similar to that in Germany. In the humanist stream of the Gymnasium, Latin can be chosen from the seventh year (Year 3) and Ancient Greek from the ninth year (Year 5). Schools with a particularly long tradition are known as ‘Akademisches Gymnasium’, but they also follow the curriculum of the humanist stream.

These are mostly grammar schools with a strong sense of tradition and a long history. It is typical for them to offer Latin as the first foreign language from Year 5 onwards. With a few exceptions, Greek is no longer compulsory; as a third, and in rare cases a fourth, foreign language, it is either a compulsory elective or an optional subject. Some schools also offer Hebrew as an optional subject. Unlike modern foreign languages, which are taught as ‘languages of communication’, the focus in classical languages, as ‘languages of reflection’, is on linguistic understanding


Since the 1970s, the reformed upper secondary system has allowed pupils to opt out of certain subjects, meaning that the traditional grammar school streams now exist only to a limited extent. Today, they are best understood as a school profile determined by the school itself. The choice of a third foreign language is optional under the school laws of most federal states, which poses particular problems for Greek teaching in terms of finding enough motivated pupils at a challenging age.
