Coronavirus also puts German high school exams at risk, where written tests generally start as early as spring. The German state of Schleswig-Holstein is the first to come forward, with the idea of giving up the exams for this year. It is the plan of the local minister of education, Karin Prien, according to which it is not at all clear when lessons can resume - in the country that has closed schools of all levels and now at federal level - and keep the written tests for exams would therefore be "unrealistic". The papers for the high school exams, in the northern Laender, should start, according to the regular program, immediately after the Easter holidays. At this point, Prien proposes that students be evaluated on the basis of what has been done so far, with simple grades. "We have been consulting for two weeks to find out if it is possible to get to the final exams this year. At the moment this seems unrealistic," he said. The minister will propose the alternative option to the conference of education ministers. In Germany, education is a matter of regional competence
