dc.description The discussion about the pros and cons of economics as a school subject has been going on for many years – and agreement has still not been reached. It is therefore useful to set aside the debate about economics as a school subject for now and to address the question of how social science-based economics education in mainstream schools can be designed in such a way to be successful. During the 2012 conference of the Association of European Economics Education (AEEE), approximately 100 teachers, teacher trainers, inspectors and researchers with a professional interest in economics and business education from all over Europe visited a German grammar school with a focus on economics education. The Siebengebirgsgymnasium in Bad Honnef strives to provide all pupils with a basic economics education and a selection of additional social science-oriented classes. Using some exemplary projects it has been demonstrated how, since 2003, the Siebengebirgsgymnasium has been dedicated to constructively addressing the Kaminski-Hedtke controversy about politics and economics education and to fostering a creative and social science-based economics education.
