Schools – Stuttgart – Teachers: Too much effort with Corona test certificates – Education

Stuttgart (dpa / lsw) – Issuing schoolchildren in the future with a certificate for a corona test in school is not feasible from the point of view of the education union GEW. “It is a cheek that an additional task is being forced upon the schools again,” said state chairwoman Monika Stein to the “Stuttgarter Nachrichten” (Saturday). “The resources for this are currently not available.” Filling out the forms takes up time and manpower that should actually be invested in the class. In addition, the schools have not received any information about the new regulation, which will apply from Monday.

A certificate from the school about a negative test should then be sufficient so that pupils do not have to be tested again during leisure activities, for example. A spokesman for the Ministry of Social Affairs told the newspaper that a very simple template would be made available to schools. These do not have to be issued in general, but only on request and also have to be pre-filled by the children and young people.
