Missed chance: dispute over community school in the Wartburg district escalated!

In the Wartburg district, the topic of community school is currently very popular. In a current press release, the factions free voters, BFE, LAD and Greens described the recent vote on the application for the introduction of a community school as a "missed opportunity". The Greens district spokeswoman Nele Bär expressed sharp criticism of the opponents of the community school concept and referred to misunderstandings that this would have expressed with regard to the application. Mayor Michael Reinz (FW) reported consistently positive experiences with the community school in Treffurt, which has been working successfully since the beginning of the school year.

The community school, which is considered efficient in Germany as an efficient opportunity to promote individual support for students, is full of potential. Students have the option of gaining 8 different degrees from grades 8, including the secondary school leaving certificate and even general university entrance qualification. This offers a broad perspective for young learners and contributes positively to the motivation to learn. The Thuringian Community School has also set itself the goal of responding individually to the learning and development needs of the students, which is combined with different levels of claims for teaching. This strengthens the feeling of belonging in the classes and ensures optimal support.

particularly highlighted is the accessibility of the facility, which ensures that all students can benefit equally from the offers. In the coming school year 2024/2025, an estimated 263 students will learn in 13 classes at the community school. These figures illustrate the relevance of the school in rural areas and the need to obtain corresponding school locations.
