Bavaria: Ministry of Education wants to relieve school administrations in Bavaria

Munich (dpa / lby) - Headmasters in Bavaria should be able to take more time for their management tasks in the new school year. The Bavarian Ministry of Culture announced on Monday in Munich that the headmasters wanted to be given relief hours equivalent to a total of 115 full-time positions. These could then flow into the planning of the staffing requirements of the schools. Every elementary, middle and special school in the Free State should benefit from this.

In addition, more than 50 other secondary schools, grammar schools and vocational schools in Bavaria could distribute management tasks to more shoulders from the coming school year through the "extended school management" model, the Ministry of Education announced. "Our principals are doing an excellent job," said Minister of Education Michael Piazolo (Free Voters). "So that things can stay that way, we are creating relief options where possible at short notice." Piazolo announced that further steps in this direction should follow.

At the beginning of the year, the teachers' association LBBV demanded that the school management in Bavaria should be given more time to organize - and more skills so that they could react to the shortage of teachers in many places with tailor-made emergency solutions.
