Teacher Association President Simone Fleischmann denounces the teacher shortage in Bavaria.

In doing so, she contradicts Minister of Culture Michael Piazolo, who denies this.

  • School lessons in

    Bavaria

    are in crisis.

  • This is what the teacher association president claimed today in Munich.

  • She demands support from the Ministry of Culture.

Munich

- Bavaria's

teachers

are on the gums.

You could get this impression if you heard today's statement by the President of the

Bavarian Teachers' Association

(BLLV).

Simone Fleischmann

said on Wednesday (October 7th) in

Munich

that two

crises are

currently

colliding.

There is a dramatic

shortage of teachers

and the

Corona *

crisis has to

be overcome.

She also made a direct request to

Minister of Education Michael Piazolo

(FW).

Teacher Association President contradicts Minister of Education Piazolo

The new school year has only just started, but the situation is already precarious.

"We have never experienced such an emergency operation as now," said

Fleischmann

.

The

FSVO President identified

the

teacher shortage

as the main problem

.

Regular operation is out of the question at many schools.

Education Minister Piazolo

had already contradicted this accusation at the beginning of the school year.

There have never been as many

teachers

as there are now, writes br24.de.

Fleischmann

made it clear, however: “The

BLLV

contradicts the

Minister of Education

.

There have never been so many challenges.

(...) There have never been so many

teachers

who weren't there. "

For the

BLLV boss

, the real problem is not addressed.

But there is “peak over peak”.

From the digital summit to the school summit to the ventilation summit, what is good in itself is held, according to

Fleischmann

.

But there is no urgently needed teacher summit.

"

Everything is a show, everything is a world of appearance, for us everything is fooling around

."

BLLV President Fleischmann: There has been a shortage of teachers for a long time

The problem with the missing teachers is not new, according to

Fleischmann

.

The

teachers

have been always seen to it that this lack'll concealed.

Now this is no longer possible.

“The

minister of education

can no longer deny reality.

It is not enough to reject allegations, ”said the

FSVO president

plainly.

Then

Fleischmann

becomes

even clearer: “Yes, more classes will be canceled.

Not only because of Corona *, but also because of the

shortage

of

teachers

.

Many of us simply cannot anymore. "

There is emergency operation at the schools in Bavaria, the #teacher shortage is having an impact.

This core problem needs to be addressed.

It needs a #teacher summit!

Fleischmann

also expressed

particular criticism of

the statement by the

Minister

of

Education, Piazolo

, that 99.5 percent of all school classes are in classroom instruction.

This statement would miss the reality.

Because, according to the

BLLV boss

, there is a duty of supervision.

Children should

not even be sent home

due to the lack of

teachers

.

"Why is it so damn difficult for the

minister of education

to say that we have a

shortage of teachers

?" Prime Minister

Markus Söder

(CSU) has at least admitted this.

Schweinfurt school principal supports the FSVO president

The headmaster of a middle school in Schweinfurt and

Vice-BLLV President

Tomi Neckov supports

Fleischmann

.

"That's why at the moment I just expect honesty from the state government and the admission that we have no regular operations at the schools at the moment," he said.

Neckov has particular concerns about the upcoming

flu season

.

"When the season starts and the

teachers

are also absent, then I don't know how I can keep things going."
