The "Meridian" primary school is a private primary school with a legally regulated school type designation "Volksschule" (primary school) and was founded on May 28, 2020. This was confirmed by the decision of the Vienna Board of Education on November 6, 2020, based on § 7 para. 1 and 2 PrivSchG. This means that the school, regarding its organization including the curriculum and equipment, is considered equivalent and recognized by the Vienna Board of Education to a comparable public school.

The primary school is thus an official primary school under Austrian law. Compulsory schooling is fulfilled when the child attends an official school. From the school year 2023/24, MERIDIAN was certified as the first Cambridge School in Vienna.

The primary school children are prepared for attending a German-speaking or English-speaking secondary school. In the medium term, a separate secondary school (from the 5th grade) is also to be founded and operated. Children of the Private Primary School Meridian with a legally regulated school type designation do not have to take an entrance examination (with appropriate success) when transferring to a secondary school with a legally regulated school type designation (e.g., Gymnasium/AHS).

The private primary school MERIDIAN is a non-denominational private school, which is financed exclusively by school fees. In contrast, denominational private schools (e.g., private schools of the Archdiocese of Vienna) have an ecclesiastical school provider responsible for the organization and operation of the school. Denominational schools receive state subsidies covering the entire personnel costs, regardless of the denomination of the school provider. This unequal treatment is historically enshrined in law.
