Teachers in Germany are often dissatisfied with the state of digitization in schools.
This is the result of a survey conducted by the German Association of Philologists among almost 7,000 teachers.
The funds from the federal and state digital pact, which was topped up during the pandemic, are therefore only arriving slowly in schools.
Teachers at grammar schools and other schools leading to the Abitur were surveyed.
The online survey was conducted from October to mid-November.
The main results:
A good 43 percent of teachers have so far not received a
service laptop
despite full-fledged political promises
.
Almost 50 percent stated that they teach in schools where the
WLAN is
not optimally usable for teaching.
62.5 percent cannot rely on a
professional IT supervisor
at work at their school
.
Just 23 percent said they were being looked after by a professional administrator.

»For those politically responsible, this is an indictment of poverty after a pandemic of more than 20 months.
Schools have to be equipped with less bureaucracy, faster and better, ”said Susanne Lin-Klitzing, federal chairman of the philologists' association, which mainly represents high school teachers.
In the somewhat quieter phase of the pandemic, almost all state governments failed to put the use of digital media on a legally viable footing, criticized Lin-Klitzing.
However, there was also a positive result of the survey: 69 percent of the teachers surveyed could now work in their schools with suitable and data protection-compliant learning platforms.
This was not yet the case for 13.8 percent of those surveyed.
