Schools – Düsseldorf – Stamp against school class halving: topic schools postponed – education

Düsseldorf (dpa / lnw) – The federal government’s deliberations on stricter corona measures in schools have been rejected by North Rhine-Westphalia’s Vice-Prime Minister Joachim Stamp (FDP). On Monday night it became known that, according to the federal government, schools should remain open, but the classes should be moved to large rooms or halved – this could reduce the risk of infection. According to Family Minister Joachim Stamp (FDP), such requirements cannot be implemented because they would increase the need for personnel. According to the Liberal, the Federal Chancellery is not a coalition partner of the state FDP. “This passage cannot be decided.”

According to Stamp, there is no staff to divide the classes in half and alternately teach in schools and learn at home. “Where do the double teachers for this proposal come from?” He asked on Twitter on Monday morning. “How far is the Federal Chancellery from our children and families?” Stamp emphasized that teachers were needed for digital teaching. You could give students homework for a week at home. “Without supervision, however, the children will miss the boat whose parents cannot afford it or who are employed,” said Stamp.

Chancellor Angela Merkel (CDU) and the prime ministers of the federal states have postponed a decision on how to proceed in schools: “At the next conference, the federal and state governments will discuss how the risk of infection in schools can be reduced in hotspots,” decided Merkel and the Country bosses on Monday. The next meeting is planned for November 25th.
