Maybe also interesting/important in this context: Schools have only very limited ways to do their own hiring. Teachers are usually allocated by state government administrations. This tends to be a bureaucratic and drawn-out process. Normal teaching positions usually require a few months to fill under ideal conditions, positions for principals/vice principals can take more than a year, even if a candidate is available. Our primary school has been without a principal for a year now and while the vice-principal has been confirmed to take over the position, it will take a few months more to make that official. And only then the position of vice-principal will be recruited. Most likely, the school will be without a full administrative team for two years or more when all is said and done.
- G3rn0ti 3y ago> Teachers are usually allocated by state government administrations. This. Biggest issue in all variants of Germany’s education system. Schools should have their own budget which they can allocate as they wish and be allowed to freely raise additional budget from private of public sources for their projects. They should also have a say in the salary of the teachers they employ. In Germany, historically, all teachers are civil servants that can’t be fired and, hence, aren’t really held responsible for the outcome of their teachings. Especially in troublesome areas schools are left with often incompetent and lazy personnel make the situation for children even worse.
