Garching

- The extension of the West Elementary School is enlarged again.

It needs rooms for two more classes.

The multiple uses of classrooms and specialist rooms in the elementary and middle schools as well as the available space and resources have been exhausted, the space program for the expansion of the elementary school decided at the end of 2020 is insufficient.

Talks with the school management revealed that.

The twelve-class school has grown to 14 classes, and two specialist rooms have already been converted into classrooms.

In the new building, there will be space for lunch care with four group rooms, cloakrooms and toilets and at the same time can double its maximum capacity to 100 places.

This is necessary because elementary and middle school students currently have to share the narrow time window of 90 minutes for lunch, and there is too little space and time for a quiet meal.

In addition, the scope of supervision is planned to be extended until 4 p.m., also to take into account the space required for the pedagogically intensive small group offer of the district youth association Munich-Land, which is aimed at up to 15 pupils with language deficits.

Start of construction in spring 2023

For Mayor Dietmar Gruchmann (SPD) a multifunctional use of the new rooms is in the foreground.

In this way, technical rooms could be available in the afternoons for afternoon care activities.

The planning, said building authority manager Klaus Zettl, should be ready by autumn 2022.

The start of construction is planned for spring 2023.

Due to the increased demand and the associated enlargement of the building, one has to adapt the installation space.

For this purpose, the building boundaries to the south are expanded as much as possible, while maintaining the necessary clearance to the neighboring building and the street.

"This will probably also reduce the complaints of residents due to noise," hopes Gruchmann.

Rapid implementation and completion, however, can only be achieved using a modular design.

"If we build conventionally, it takes longer," said Zettl, head of the building authority.

And time is of the essence, because according to the school needs analysis, two classrooms will be missing from 2023.

"We are already completely behind schedule", warned Alfons Kraft (BfG).

The further increase will increase the costs for the school extension from 3.81 to 4.14 million euros, around 30 percent of which will be funded according to Mayor Gruchmann.
