Building land in the middle of nowhere with the house prices?!

REACTION TO TEACHER SHORTAGE in Saxony-Anhalt.

Students and teachers in Saxony-Anhalt will have to cope with numerous changes in the coming years. Four-day week, shorter lessons, abolition of the formula sheet, many things will change.

Is that supposed to be the solution? Shorter lessons in the richest country in the world. Yes, of all things, we have to save on education. We throw money out the window for every nonsense. For our pensioners and our children we have no money.

The government in Saxony-Anhalt should just keep going like this.

Well. Here in NRW there is money now, only the teachers are missing. Suddenly you see that there is still a bottleneck that has nothing to do with money.

Surprise, surprise…

Flimsy teacher shortage as always, they should just shorten the teacher training to 6 months. I see what my wife has to do in the teacher training (BW), that's not little. That's ridiculous after an eternally long course of study. Then you're also dependent on a few people who evaluate you. There are a few trainee teachers who didn't pass the teacher training despite a very good first state exam. Especially when career changers can simply start under the same conditions without the lengthy course of study.

Transparent teacher shortage as always, they should just shorten the teaching apprenticeship to 6 months. I see what my wife has to do in her apprenticeship (BW), it's not little. That is ridiculous after a very long degree. Then you are also dependent on a few people who evaluate you. There are a few apprentices who did not pass the apprenticeship despite a very good first state exam. Especially when lateral entrants can simply start under the same conditions without the long study.

The problem lies in the very theoretical part that the first state exam tests. Whether you can work with students, you do not know even if you get a 1 there. It should be the exact opposite: Spend less time at university and more time in schools during teacher training. This is slowly coming to NRW. BTW: The lateral entrants here have to do the apprenticeship. This exists under various names in other federal states as well.

English or religious education has no place in elementary school up to the 4th grade. That's right.

I agree with religious education, but not with English.

English is a global language and it feels like the world is getting smaller. Children are already confronted with English in everyday things. Update, logout, software, social media, AppStore or Gamestore etc. just as small examples where the terms are already integrated into the school day. Our daughter is now still in 6th grade and has had English since the first grade. Sure, playful at the beginning, songs etc., but she already speaks better English than I did after 10th grade.

We were on a city trip 14 days ago and our daughter, usually shy, communicated completely in English there, that was just great!

I have been wondering for years why every teacher has to develop their entire teaching material (apart from the textbook) completely by themselves and thus spends countless hours creating board presentations, worksheets, and lessons. I would consider it much more sensible and efficient if an expert group for each subject sat in the respective Ministry of Education, which takes care of this for the entire federal state and centrally develops these materials and then distributes them to the teachers for use.
