Right-wing extremism - Teacher candidate dismissed from civil servant position

A controversial teacher candidate in Brandenburg has been dismissed from her position as a civil servant. The Ministry of Education has banned her from carrying out her official duties and sent her a notice of dismissal from her "civil servant status on revocation", a ministry spokeswoman announced on Tuesday evening in response to a dpa inquiry. No further information would be provided.

In mid-September, the ministry announced that it would investigate a report in the"Tagesspiegel" newspaper that a trainee teacher with links to the far-right scene was working at a school. The report stated that a woman was currently completing her traineeship at a school in the district of Märkisch-Oderland who had allegedly worked several times as a presenter for the news channel of "Compact" magazine. The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution has classified this magazine as a proven right-wing extremist organization since 2021.

Teachers in the state of Brandenburg are obliged to observe and respect the principles of the free democratic basic order, the ministry said.
