Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania: Certificate concern phone available from Monday

Schwerin (dpa/mv) - Anyone who is unhappy with their school year report or does not dare to go home with the grades can get advice by phone from this Monday. The professional psychological counseling can be reached during the certificate week to Saturday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on telephone number 0385 588 7987, as announced by the Ministry of Education.

"It is extremely important that the children and young people know that they will quickly find an open ear in difficult situations," explained Minister of Education Simone Oldenburg (left). The same goes for parents who need advice. They too could contact the hotline, which is said to be operational until July 15. In Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, the summer holidays for around 154,000 children and young people at general schools begin on Friday.
