Bavaria’s primary school plans:“The wrong decision to cut corners on creativity”
There should be more German and math in Bavaria’s primary schools, while art, music and works will be cut. The astrophysicist and natural science explainer Harald Lesch is against it.
Interview by Anna Günther
The new PISA concept from Bavaria’s Minister of Education Anna Stolz (Free Voters) is intended to bring more space for German and math in primary schools. The German students performed too poorly in the most recent Pisa study. Time must be given to art, music and works that are combined into a combined subject. For Harald Lesch, the Munich astrophysics professor and television-famous physics explainer, this development is fatal.
