Busch: a new appointment should not take so long

Dedicating himself to the education of young people, said busch, was a beautiful and rewarding task, but also a rough responsibility, especially since loffler had been active for some time as a lone campaigner in the school district office.

“Better opportunities for children”

Decker immediately answered the question of whether a school expansion costing a good 1.1 million could still be justified in today’s world: "we wanted to go along with the ministry of education’s quality offensive and expand the range of schools on offer. An elementary school close to home with an in-depth requirement in the bound all-day school, a middle school with a strong vocational and practical orientation – here young people prepare particularly intensively for training and professional life. I think that businesses and trades are now eagerly awaiting such school leavers."

At the same time, the intermediate school-leaving certificate also enables students to continue on to a technical secondary school or even to obtain a general higher education entrance qualification and to enter a grammar school. "The domestic economy needs middle school graduates", decker stressed.

The association’s chairman hoped that parents would take advantage of the expanded opportunities offered by such a form of education for their children. Quoting former german president roman herzog, decker concluded: "we must not only think of the high intelligence, but also of the children who grasp the world with both hands." These children were in good hands at the neuenmarkt-wirsberg school and later also had good chances of finding an apprenticeship place.

According to deputy district administrator jorg kunstmann, it is impossible to imagine school life without all-day care, and it is socially desirable. "We as school authorities, be it the county or the municipalities, also want to comply with this social will."
