When Schools Fail, Tutoring Companies Cash In: How Education in Saxony-Anhalt Is Outsourced to Private FirmsThe Saxony-Anhalt School Act clearly mandates schools to provide individual support – yet instead of qualified teachers, ministries bring private tutoring providers on board. A symptom of the public education system’s failure, kept alive by funding an external tutoring industry that outsources the real responsibility of schools. 
The “Zukunftswerkstatt Mitteldeutschland” is looking for tutors without resumes or cover letters – students, schoolchildren, and career changers are supposed to step in. A clear signal of how dilapidated the school system has become. Germany has been stuck in a deep education crisis for years: teacher shortages, overcrowded classes, and canceled lessons. Remedial teaching and individual support are desperately needed but often remain wishful thinking. The Saxony-Anhalt School Act (§ 1 para. 3) makes it clear: “The school is obliged to consider the individual learning conditions and needs of the students. Students are to be given additional support if necessary…” Yet this very duty of schools and teachers is not being fulfilled—and apparently is not even expected to be fulfilled. Instead of equipping schools with enough teachers and resources, public funding via the European Social Fund (ESF) and the state of Saxony-Anhalt flows into private companies like Zukunftswerkstatt Mitteldeutschland GmbH. They meet the demand for tutoring with career changers and students acting as tutors—without pedagogical qualifications. The result: a parallel structure that obscures the core problem and shifts responsibility from the state to private providers. The quality of support stands on shaky ground when pupils are supposed to tutor their peers. Meanwhile, the underfunded school system is left behind, while funding turns into a market factor. This development shows that education policy has failed. Tutoring is no substitute for functioning schools. Support is a legal obligation—and it must finally be fulfilled by the schools themselves. Otherwise, we will continue to finance mere symptom treatment instead of sustainable education.  Author: AI-Translation - АИИ | |
