Educational offensive for migrants: over 1,300 jobs for German funding!

Deutschland - The Industrial Association (IV) has signaled its support for the package of measures presented by Education Minister Christoph Return to German funding in schools. This emerges from a current message published on April 11, 2025. The Secretary General of IV, Christoph Neumayer, emphasizes that strengthening language support is the key to education and integration.

The package of measures includes several essential points, including the planned increase in the positions for German funding from 577 to over 1,300. In addition, an increase in school autonomy in this area is sought to give schools more freedom. Another focus is on the increased training and further education of teachers who teach German as a second language (DAZ) and German as a foreign language (DAF). This comprehensive framework concept is part of the efforts to improve the educational opportunities for all students and to meet the needs of students with migration history, as well as the BMBF emphasized.

investments in education as an opportunity

Neumayer emphasizes the importance of the relevant investment volume of over 108 million euros, which represents an increase of 62 million euros compared to the previous financing period. These funds are needed to successfully implement the above measures. However, it is also pointed out to the existing bottlenecks in the education sector, since the availability of qualified teachers is a major challenge.

In addition, the program for German funding can be seen as part of broader education initiatives that aim to reduce disadvantages in the education system. The research activities, funded by the European Social Fund (ESF Plus) and national public funds, focus on creating a diversity -sensitive education system. This includes practice -oriented approaches that examine discrimination in the education system and develop measures to improve the situation of people with migration history.

Education as a key to integration

The report of the BMBF also addresses the challenges with which many migrants are confronted. In particular, the heterogeneity of the group is discussed, which is shown in different educational stands and social areas. Girls with migration history often perform better than their male peers, but have difficulties in transition to training and studying.

A central goal of research and political measures is to reduce the participation of participation in the education system and to promote integration through education. The role of women, especially mothers, plays a crucial role in their children's integration processes. The need for sensitive educational practice is undisputed to provide suitable support for all students and thus to ensure equal opportunities.

Overall, it can be seen that the Minister of Education Minister's Package of Measures can be seen not only in response to the current requirements in the education sector, but also as a strategic step towards promoting educational justice and integration in society. The coming months will be crucial to evaluate the implementation of the measures and their effects.
