The Hermann Lietz School Haubinda offers the foreign languages English and Spanish. From the 1st grade onwards, students are taught in English.

Branches of instruction
The 7th to 10th grades are divided into three branches or elective subjects (representation and design, natural sciences and economics, environment and Europe). The students at the Hermann Lietz School Haubinda must have decided on one of the three branches at the beginning of the 7th grade. Each of these areas has a different area subject in which students are taught four lessons per week. All students attend their chosen branch until they complete secondary school, technical college entrance qualification or Abitur.
