Teachers at a Berlin school have issued an urgent plea for help, citing escalating violence, severe educational deficits among students — largely attributed to challenges from mass immigration — and a lack of systemic support...
Teachers at the Friedrich Bergius School in Berlin’s Schöneberg district have issued a stark warning about escalating issues they say are exacerbated by the city’s approach to mass immigration and integration.
In a seven-page letter to the district council, the staff described an environment of increasing aggression, violence, and educational struggles that has left them overwhelmed and desperate for support.
The letter highlights a central issue: Many students entering the school lack not only proficiency in German but also basic academic skills, with some having never attended school before. Around 80 percent of the students speak a language other than German at home, and over 70 percent of the seventh graders admitted in 2023 were unable to even read a clock.
These challenges, compounded by behavioral problems and a lack of resources, have created what teachers describe as “untenable” conditions.
The strained educational system is underscored by a dramatic rise in verbal abuse and physical threats toward teachers which educators say has now become routine, while serious incidents of bullying have further eroded the school environment.
...
Students have reportedly set off firecrackers in the schoolyard, thrown objects at peers and staff, and harassed others with phones in restrooms — “taking photos and videos in compromising situations.”
...
Public schools in the German capital can no longer reimburse teachers for school trips due to budget constraints, but the local government increased its expenditure on migrant housing to €1.3 billion in the summer.
...
Their concerns are backed up by the stats. Over 1,500 incidents were recorded in the first 38 days of the school year alone, with over 500 students having to be removed from class for behavioral reasons.
Teachers report that their concerns have been ignored by local authorities. “The school is increasingly reaching its limits,” the letter states as teachers demand urgent intervention to address the crisis.
Unsurprisingly, the problems reverberate around the community, with local residents lodging complaints about anti-social behavior by students and supermarket owners banning youngsters from entering their establishments due to disruptive incidents.
Police are called far too frequently to the school to respond to escalating situations, the letter states, with clashes often stemming from the cultural divides that now exist.
...
An in-house security force has been deployed to restore law and order and parents have expressed their concern at sending their children to the school where the mother tongue of 81 percent of students isn't German.
...
Teachers say the current system does not provide the resources necessary to meet the demands of the increasing socio-economic backgrounds of many students, leaving schools to struggle alone with the consequences of Berlin’s immigration policies.
The teaching staff outlined six measures necessary to address the crisis, including a shift to classroom-based teaching methods and the hiring of a school psychologist to assist the four current social workers.
In addition, staff called for greater supervision of students during break times and for more robust security measures, including a gatekeeper.
Further resources are needed, they say, to manage disruptive behavior including direct intervention from education authorities.
Lastly, the staff are demanding a comprehensive plan to address the root causes of the crisis, instead of firefighting and acting reactively to the escalating situation.
LOL!
German teachers did Nazi that coming!
Multiculturalism is a death blow to a country. Just look at what America has turned into. A multicultural crapper.
“multi-culturalism” is among the stupidest ideas the left has managed to get people to believe and spout.
Is is such an obvious Communist trick, yet people didn’t see it coming.
They wouldn’t listen to reason and instead followed the knee-jerk rationale of “diversity good”. Who knew there would be consequences? Everybody who was being labeled xenophobic for stating the obvious. Multiculturalism destroys cultures.
Many studies have shown that children of Muslim immigrants are, in general, more radical than their parents.
So don’t expect assimilation over time. To the contrary. This party is just getting started.
Nobody imagined stupidity of that magnitude.
Have family members in public education.
What’s going on here in our school system isn’t much different from the German experience.
Jihad invasion called the Hijrah. Same since the 7th Century and for the same reason..
The leaders need to be arrested prosecuted and imprisoned because they all knew damn well this is exactly what was going to happen. None of this is a surprise. They caused all of this chaos.
And this is exactly what they’re doing and have been doing for many decades in the United States.
Enoch Powell warned us decades ago. They refused to listen
15,000 killers, 20,000 sexual assault convicts, 60,000 robbers among illegal aliens / invaders.. 660,000 illegals at large in the U.S. with criminal records.. Dems call them “Our Democrat Voter base”..
Quadruple that number, because Sanctuary States like California do not report crimes committed by non-citizens.. Straight-up treason..

The far-left has destroyed and erased American History to build their multi-tribe U.S. sewer. A bunch of tribes fighting over a bigger piece of the pie while killing one another. Yeah. “America’s strength”. Dead people and tribes fighting.
“German teachers did Nazi that coming!”
Goring someone who cares!
This is part of the problem. Stop hiring social workers and psychologists and other bureacrats. Just send the "migrants" back to whereever they came from. They don't want to integrate no matter how many social workers you assign to them.
Childless Merkel does not care about German children.
Former East German Communist functionary - Angela Merkel achieves high marks at moslem Jihad (the Hijrah), the China virus insertion, and German repression.
Many East Germans were members of Stasi, which has been described as “worse than the Gestapo” by Nazi hunter Simon Wiesenthal....
a lot of us DID see it coming.
Not only Germany. My US city has so many non-English speaking children who in many cases have never been to school that we need a huge hiring of translators, family aid, and everything else you could imagine to support 20,000+ financially dependent, school-age “immigrants.”
I can’t wait until the tax bill comes due for 2025.
The Cloward-Piven strategy was developed by professors Richard Cloward and Francis Fox Piven during the 1960s. In their strategy, Cloward and Piven outlined a plan to implement monumental changes in America by abusing the nation to the point of destruction.
Rather than dismissing this radical idea, the left has chosen to largely adopt the strategy and assist in its materialization.
