Charles-Dickens Elementary School was opened in 1971. In the 1992 school year the Europe School branch was added.

Charles-Dickens-Grundschule has both an English-German Europe Branch and a regular German Branch. The school is located between the Olympic Stadium and Berlin's Grunewald forest, with very convenient connections to the public transportation system. A third building was added to the spacious school grounds in 2007. The 450 students at Charles-Dickens-GS have access to a well-stocked English-German library, 2 well-equipped computer rooms, a students’ kitchen, a large cafeteria and a huge green playground.
