Because of Corona, lessons at schools in Hesse are to be held in digital form as far as possible.
But the start of school is more than bumpy.
Due to the
Corona *
lockdown,
there will be no
classroom teaching
until the end of January.
At many
schools
in
Hessen
there is
chaos in digital lessons
after school starts in the new year
.
The education union GEW criticizes the
lack of technical equipment
.
Kassel / Wiesbaden - During the current lockdown, the
schools
in
Hesse are
reaching their limits.
At the start of school in 2021, there is chaos in the implementation of teaching under the current
Corona conditions
at some educational institutions
.
Lessons began on Monday, January 11th, 2021.
According to a report by the
German Press Agency (dpa)
, there are
problems with the implementation of digital
lessons five days after lessons have been resumed during the
corona lockdown
at some schools in
Hesse
.
The
education union GEW
speaks of a "mess", since the digital teaching from the seventh grade does not work properly and some
schools are
not equipped with the necessary technical devices.
Responsible for this chaos is the lack of efficiency and the instability of the Hessian school portal.
Corona in Hessen: Digital lessons in schools - differences in technical equipment
However, the
Ministry of Culture
sees
Hesse
The situation was completely different: "The feedback was that, apart from minor start-up problems when logging into the school portal, the situation at the
schools was
very good," said a spokesman.
In addition, the Ministry is very satisfied with the response to the face-to-face teaching.
Parents of students in grades one to six can freely choose whether to send their children to school - 18 percent accepted this offer.
It shows that the parents are
dealing
responsibly
with the current
corona situation

However, the
differences in technical equipment
between primary and secondary
schools
are particularly striking
.
The example of the Adolf Reichwein School in Rodenbach in the Main-Kinzig district shows that the secondary level has significantly better digital equipment than the primary school.
There is also the option of teaching via video transmission.
Schools in Hesse in corona lockdown: mandatory attendance suspended for the time being
Since the
state government
has decided
to suspend
classes in
schools as
far as possible until the end of January
due to the
corona pandemic
,
the attendance requirement for the students no longer applies.
However, it is still possible to go to school if parents cannot look after their children at home.
With the exception of final classes, older students are generally taught digitally.
