Middle schools in the district of Miesbach: First qualification test is well received by principals
Markus Rewitzer, headmaster of the Hausham middle school and headmaster's spokesman, thinks the decision against English is "not that great" - the grade is important, for example, for pupils who want to graduate from secondary school after completing their qualification.
However, Rewitzer is satisfied with the start of the exam: "Everyone was on site on time and the exam was feasible." The results were "absolutely within the framework".
Ulrich Throner, head of the secondary school in Rottach-Egern, also says: "There was no corona bonus - nevertheless the level of difficulty and the results were normal for the 32 participants."
The exam at the Miesbach Middle School went just as well. Rector Birgit Ostermeier says: “It was a good start in the qualification.” Before the start of the examination, Ulrich Throner was confident - even the practical project tests had taken place despite the pandemic.
