Yes indeed, Schleswig-Holstein was one of one of half a dozen predreadnoughts that Germany was allowed to keep after Versailles.
“He was the most prodigious personification of all human inferiorities. He was an utterly incapable, unadapted, irresponsible, psychopathic personality, full of empty, infantile fantasies, but cursed with the keen intuition of a rat or a guttersnipe. He represented the shadow, the inferior part of everybody’s personality, in an overwhelming degree, and this was another reason why they fell for him.”
You are indeed correct . She also had some enlargements to her superstructures to accommodate a slightly larger compliment in WW2 (for extra AA gun crews etc)
