To commence the fresh academic year in Bavaria, following the summer break, the Bavarian Teachers' Union (BLLV) intends to steer the conversation towards improving educational standards. "The teacher deficit is no longer debated," stated BLLV President Simone Fleischmann. Indeed, teacher scarcity is prevalent everywhere. However, it's high time we transcend the 'valley of sorrows' and emphasize quality education. "The next action is to probe: What is genuinely essential and feasible?"
The reopening of schools in Bavaria on September 10 signals new beginnings, particularly for primary schools, with the introduction of the Pisa Initiative. In light of disappointing Pisa test scores, there will be a greater focus on mathematics and German in the syllabus. Primary schools will have the discretion to determine the allocation of English, music, art, craft, and design (WG) within the framework set by the Department of Culture. However, certain hours dedicated to these areas may be reduced.
BLLV expresses concerns regarding the environment in schools. With the ongoing staffing shortages, Fleischmann shared, there's a noticeable decrease in complaints. "Then who will champion top-notch education?" she questioned.
