Berlin's primary schools : Ankara is losing its influence

only a year ago, launched Turkish-AGs in Berlin's primary schools have become a success story. The Senate administration for education expects that the participants could increase the number for the coming school year by another 50 percent, from nearly 1100 to 1600. This authorities spokeswoman Beate Stoffers told daily mirror request. It was so far a forecast.

to start The PLC-offer "language of origin is Turkish" was in February of 2018 at 21 primary schools. In the summer of 2018 49 schools were involved: 15 in center, eight in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, seven in Steglitz-Zehlendorf and Berlin-Neukölln, five in Reinickendorf, four in the Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf district, two in Tempelhof-Schöneberg and Spandau. A current query in March showed that just under 1100 First arrived to the sixth graders in the AGs. The forecast for 2019/20 has now shown that, in particular, in Spandau, Reinickendorf and Tempelhof-Schöneberg schools. It is expected to be available from summer 150 AGs at 73 schools.

In return, the participation in the so-called native-language complement to the teaching of the Turkish Consulate General is shrinking. For 2016/17, the number of schools has shrunk from initially 150 to 108 schools and 77, and from about 2350 to almost 1590 students. There are a few schools that offer both the Consulate of teaching as well as their own AGs. Tend to be aspired schools, the AG's offerings to provide but, "to dispense with the Parallel services of External (i.e. Consulate of instruction)," said the education administration. According to daily mirror information is also upset at parents who would prefer to have the Consulate of instruction. How many logins there are for the summer, is not yet known.
