German Embassy School Tehran
German Embassy School Tehran (German: Deutsche Botschaftsschule Teheran, DBST) is a German international school in Tehran.[1] The school serves kindergarten through Sekundarstufe II (senior high school).[2] There is a nursery through class 8 international section.[3]
It shares its campus with the former The British School, Tehran (BST).[4] After the BST's closure in 2011, the DBST acquired the BST's assets and established an international section operating in the former BST campus.[5]

The first German school in Tehran opened in 1907. It closed in World War II but reopened in 1955. It closed in the spring of 1980.[6]
