The demolition excavator rolls in rugendorf

School

As mayor ralf holzmann announced at the town council meeting on monday, the house at muhlleite no. 7, the local guardhouse just after the schoolhouse, has been demolished since tuesday. The former agricultural property is owned by the municipality after the former owners, who live on lake constance, could not find a buyer for the property; it is too rough, too old and too expensive to renovate.

A park with public access and a garden in the center is to be created on the site, for which a design by the landscape architects wirth and birkenbeul in kulmbach already exists. The project is registered with the "forderinitiative nordbayern" (subsidy possibility up to 90 percent) submitted. However, there are also plans to sell the land as building land for two or three private houses, as there is a demand for this. Parking spaces to be built next to the adjacent school building.

The lessons are not disturbed by the demolition work at present, because first the wing away from the school is demolished. Should the noise pollution become too loud during further demolition, the rugendorf classes could be relocated to the stadtsteinach school building at short notice, principal michael pfitzner informs us.

Farewell to school district director loffler in coburg

The head of the state education authority for the county and city of coburg, director of the education authority werner loffler, retired on friday in a ceremony. At the same time, the new school board members stefanie mayr-leidnecker and ulrich barth were appointed to their positions.

District administrator michael busch, also on behalf of mayor norbert tessmer, thanked the outgoing director of the school district, loffler, for his tireless commitment to the school district. Loffler is now ending a career that has been his life's work for four decades. Loffler had carried this out with expertise, tact and patience. Predictability, trust, openness and willingness to help are the hallmarks of the outgoing director of the school district, according to busch.

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. In this context, busch addressed critical words to the president of the government of upper franconia, heidrun piwernetz. It is unbearable, said the district superintendent, that it takes so long to fill positions that have been. "Medium-term personnel planning would also be highly advisable in this area", he emphasized. The district of coburg has taken a very close look at the development of the schools in order to ensure that good educational conditions are guaranteed. For this reason, a staff unit "education, social affairs and culture" has been set up at the district office had been set up. "With the goal of showing that "education is written in capital letters", said bush.

In his speech, the district administrator also addressed technological change and the challenges it poses for the teaching profession. "In the future, this will occupy us more than the question of whether or not we have to close one school or another."According to busch, teaching plans will change rapidly in the coming years. "So let's invest more in content than in bureaucracy."

Government president heidrun piwernetz called the school inspectorate an important player in the education system. She thanked loffler for his hard work as a teacher, principal, school board member, superintendent of schools, and superintendent of technical services. Loffler's career began in 1975 as a teacher trainee at the elementary school in windheim, followed by several positions before he became principal at the elementary school in kups in 2002. According to piwernetz, he promoted all-day schooling and advocated for all-day instruction in the M-train. In 2008, loffler came to hof and, since 2013, to the state education authorities for the district and the city of coburg. In 2014 he was appointed director of the school district.

Werner loffler expressed his gratitude, visibly moved: "when I started my teaching career in 1975, I didn't think it would be possible for me to say goodbye like this." During his time at the school, there were good and not so good phases, but: "i didn't want to miss any of these experiences. I am grateful for every encounter."

A roundabout way to the school board

New school councilor and deputy head of department is stefanie mayr-leidnecker. The educator worked as a principal at the burg-mainroth elementary school and most recently at the state education authority in the district of forchheim as a school councilor. The new school board member ulrich barth came to the teaching profession in a roundabout way. He was initially an executive in industry and came from nurnberg to upper franconia and finally to the state education authority. The new team at the school office is completed by uwe dorfer, who could not be present due to illness.

God's blessing spoke dean andreas kleefeld, gisela jahreib and susanne gebhardt congratulated on behalf of the staff council, school psychologist helga geheeb offered congratulations with an interpretation of the song "greek wine" and the teacher band played. Also, the schools of the elementary school ebersdorf and the choir of the pestalozzi school coburg framed the celebration with songs.

Infantry school hammelburg soon competent for ksk?

Since 29. On may 5, a working group in the federal ministry of defense looked into the incidents in the special forces command (KSK) and drew up 60 measures for reforming the unit. The final report is clear: it can’t stay the way it is, and the KSK can’t reform on its own. Early in the report, as the fourth point, it is demanded that "the training sector of the KSK be placed under the command of the infantry training center" becomes. This center has its seat on the hammelburg camp hill. But no one there or in berlin can say exactly what that means. "Now the task is to evaluate the results of the working group and implement the mabnahmen", said a spokesman for the ministry of defense, referring to autumn: at the end of october, a decision will be made on whether and how to continue with the KSK.

The special commando was founded in 1996: in 1994, belgian special units had rescued german citizens during the genocide in rwanda, because the federal republic did not have its own unit for such operations. In june 1995, the federal government decided to set up the KSK, at 20. September 1996 the unit was officially put into service, from april 1997 it was deployed worldwide, among others in the balkans and afghanistan.

According to the report of the working group, the KSK has a target strength of 1700 soldiers and civilian employees. At the garrison site in calw, 40 million euros have been invested in the past five years alone, and a further 225 million euros are already planned, he said. The report therefore states: "the training associated with this infrastructure must therefore continue to be carried out at the calw site and must also be made available to all special forces of the german armed forces for joint use." In other words, the KSK will essentially remain in calw, but will have to open up its training facilities and, conversely, itself practice elsewhere to some extent.

What should change is that the training of the elite unit is completely under the command of the KSK commander. Whose "leadership span" should be reduced so that he can concentrate on the core of the special forces. The report on the inclusion of hammelburg states: "this will allow the expertise of the infantry training center in infantry driver training and the special forces of the navy and the air force to be incorporated into the career training of the commanders." Moreover, it makes the army’s training command competent. This leads "to an overall higher visibility of the training in and for the KSK". In plain language: more eyes should see what is going on at the KSK.

Multiple control mechanisms

Numerous other structural changes at the KSK go in the same direction: applicants for the elite unit will be scrutinized even more closely and selected even more carefully, commando soldiers will also have to serve outside the KSK, and the length of service in certain posts will be limited in time.

Most of these changes were presented to the members of the defense committee on tuesday by defense undersecretary peter tauber. The letter, which is available to the editors, as is the result of the working group, went out a day later as a daily order from defense minister annegret kramp-karrenbauer (CDU) and was even published on the ministry’s website. A rather unusual step, in which the ministry also announced a change for the camp mountain on the sidelines: from "training center infantry made tauber and the minister "infantry school". This term was actually abolished in 2014, but is now apparently to be officially reintroduced.

What the new jurisdiction means for hammelburg, even the three members of parliament from the electoral district were not yet able to estimate exactly yesterday. "This is recognition for hammelburg", CSU member of parliament and digital minister dorothee bar is delighted. In the ministry, the "great training there" is "a great success" was praised. In addition to the navy and air force, the army now also works with the KSK. "This strengthens hammelburg’s central role", says bar. Hammelburg’s responsibility is more like "service supervision", sabine dittmar, a member of the SPD, summed up the discussion with her faction’s defense experts. Manuela rottmann from the grunen points out that each KSK member is first examined individually: "who can stay in the KSK, who at least in the bundeswehr, and who has to leave completely??"
