Priority admission for offspring of educators in Bremen schools
In a bid to address the ongoing staff shortages in Bremen's kindergartens, the Senate has proposed an amendment to the Admission Ordinance (BremAOG). The draft, approved in mid-June, aims to prioritize placement in kindergartens for children of already trained professionals who are parents, working in Bremen's kindergartens.
The decision, which is yet to be submitted to the Bremen Parliament, allows for a cared-for child in the U3 area to make room for up to 19 other children. This amendment is expected to provide more reliability for families, enabling those affected to work in their profession and better balance family and work.
The amendment is focused on professionals working in Bremen's kindergartens. By amending paragraph 6 of the BremAOG of 2014, the draft ensures preferential admission of children of pedagogical specialists employed in Bremen's kindergartens. The draft also extends this preference to second staff or childminders in large daycare facilities.
The Senator for Education, Karolin Aulepp, has explicitly welcomed the decision, stating that it is beneficial for the children and is part of an ongoing effort to address the shortage of skilled workers in Bremen's kindergartens.
The draft will be submitted to the Bremen Parliament for decision in the next session. If approved, it is hoped that this amendment will help professionals balance family and work by allowing them to pursue their careers while ensuring their children have kindergarten places.
