Three forms from the Thomas Morus School (TMS) from the Leverkusen district of Schlebusch visited the classroom at the BayArena as part of the thematic week. The lessons focused in particular on the social media platforms of Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok and co.
What's fun? What should you look out for online? The groups produced agreements for responsible use of the Internet. After the workshops, there was a stadium tour with a focus on the online presence of the Werkself players.
The school students received further education over and above their media expertise. As part of the Social Media week, the organisers also offer a workshop for parents. That was held at the TMS ahead of the school student workshops.
The workshops on media expertise have been a permanent part of the provision at ‘Bayer 04 macht Schule’ since 2019 and they are generally aimed at year groups five and six. The lessons are carried out in cooperation with the campaign 'Schutzraum - Medienkompetenz Internet' (Safe space – Internet media expertise).

Job done: the Bayer 04 eSports team defeated SV Darmstadt 98 in the play-offs to secure their consecutive participation in the VBL Club Championship final. The journey continues now for Leverkusen on Saturday 7 March (from 17:00 CET) with a last-16 encounter at Hamburger SV.

In addition to the joy of reaching the UEFA Champions League Round of 16, the Werkself were particularly pleased with their next clean sheet and their focussed defensive performance. Although there was self-criticism after the 0-0 draw against Olympiacos in the play-off second leg, Jonas Hofmann aptly summed the position after the game: "What counts in knockout matches is going through." And one young man in particular will not forget this game in a hurry. The Werkself review.

A disciplined defensive performance in the second leg saw Bayer 04 prevail against Olympiacos in the play-offs of the UEFA Champions League 2025/26. Thanks to the 2-0 away win in the first leg, the goalless draw at home at the BayArena was enough to ensure progress to the next round. The Black and Reds kept their opponents away from their goal for the best part of 90 minutes.
