Minister of Education Michael Piazolo (FW)

Corona crisis management at Bavaria's schools: Mayor criticizes minister of education
“After I have informed myself in detail and have also read the letters from your ministry, I would like to express my displeasure.
Because with your statement you have caused more confusion, incomprehension and displeasure among teachers and parents than ever before, "complains Pröbst in his letter.
Mayor Pröbst on Piazolo: "Confusion, incomprehension, displeasure"
For months, attempts have been made at the Marie Pettenbeck School in Wartenberg to plan distance lessons for grades one to ten, which can easily take place online.
They have invested in the “School Manager Online” program and bought 600 licenses for the “BigBlueButton” video conferencing tool, as well as ordering rental tablets through funding program 1, and additional tablets are being accessed through funding program 2.
CSU mayor on corona chaos in schools: "Slap in the face of everyone who tries"
Pröbst continues: “We asked the parents who needed a tablet for personal reasons.
Our IT at the school installed the system for weeks, even on weekends and during the holidays.
Online access was created and sent for all parents and children.
The school management, administration and teachers have prepared for the program and are ready to go.
The market in Wartenberg and the VG communities have made the funds available.
And now we shouldn't use that? ”He feels that“ as a slap in the face of everyone who tries hard to give the children the best possible education despite Corona, ”explains Pröbst.
Corona chaos in Bavaria's schools: "This is not crisis management, this is pure failure"
At the same time, the mayor formulated a number of allegations against the Minister of State: “You have not managed to upgrade the Mebis platform so that the system runs smoothly six months after the first failures.
You did not manage to come up with an emergency plan for the second corona wave.
They do not manage to get instructions to the schools or material cost bearers promptly and quickly. ”
Most of the letters from the Ministry of Education and Cultural Affairs come on Friday afternoon
,“ if nobody is at school anymore, and are then valid from Monday.
This is not crisis management.
That is sheer failure on your part.
And now you are banning almost all classes in our school from working online, ”denounces Pröbst.
He calls on Piazolo “to give all affected students, teachers and parents the necessary support, to grant the children their right to education and, above all, to offer a goal-oriented concept as soon as possible so that distance learning can be carried out in a professional setting.
If you cannot do that, you should draw the conclusions from it, "he clarifies, and:" I hope that my writing gives you food for thought. "
