New educational center in Brandenburg: Revolution for schools!

in Brandenburg an der Havel, the plans for a new educational center are currently underway, which in the future is intended to serve as a central element for the formation of children and adolescents. At a joint meeting on Wiesenweg, numerous citizens were present who were interested in the project. The initiative aims to realize a primary school, a high school and a two -field sports hall. These new institutions should not only meet the needs of education, but also ensure more quality of life through green schoolyards with seating and play areas. In addition, bus stops and new path connections are planned to increase accessibility. MeetingPoint Brandenburg reports that the secondary school and the sports and event hall are first developed, followed by primary school in the second construction phase.

The planning of the education center is no coincidence. Those responsible can be inspired in Scandinavian educational buildings that serve as role models for a modern room concept. This concept is adapted to the different pedagogical approaches and learning formats. In the meeting, the SPD parliamentary group leader Daniel Keip emphasized the urgency of the project that is necessary to eliminate existing capacity problems in schools and at the same time to improve the educational opportunities of the children in the region.

equal opportunities in education

The connection between urban development and education is a central topic in large settlements, as a conference on this topic has shown. Around eight million people live in such settlements in Germany, and every fifth tenancy is one of them. Despite the challenges associated with social disadvantage, the goals are clearly obvious: a successful educational biography for all children and adolescents regardless of their social origin. [Planning and building schools] (https://chulen-planen-und-bauen.de/bildcampus-eine-loesung-fuer-more-more-gross-gross settlement) emphasizes that the opportunities for young people in these areas should be improved by coordinated education networks and campus approaches.

As part of a work congress, numerous workshops were offered that dealt with various aspects of educational development. Among the topics: The role of social spaces as a place of learning and the design of public spaces, there are innovative approaches to improve the educational infrastructure. Crucial actors from the fields of pedagogy, urban planning, politics and administration have come together to develop new strategies.

integrated infrastructure planning in Berlin

Another step towards improving the social infrastructure is undertaken in Berlin. Since 2016, concepts for social infrastructure have been developed here that not only include schools, but also daycare centers, sports facilities and libraries. The process aims to promote integrated planning that acts as the basis for sustainable development in the field of education. Berlin.de emphasizes the importance of these concepts, which should help to improve the exchange between different actors and to advance the implementation of projects.

The current developments in Brandenburg an der Havel and the programs for educational design in many German cities show the common will to revolutionize the education sector and offer all children the same opportunities. It is to be hoped that the planned measures will soon bear fruit and will contribute to improving the educational policy situation throughout Germany.
