Failure of the school: Vienna in chaos - where is the protection for students?

Laimgrubengasse 10, 1060 Wien, Österreich - The alarming conditions at Vienna's schools raise questions about security and dealing with Islamist radicalization. The latest revelations, which were presented in the Servus TV show "Blickwechsel", show a frightening picture: A 14-year-old student allegedly planned an attack on the Westbahnhof in Vienna. Despite the clear warning signals, the Vienna city government and the educational directorate did not react, which now leads to serious consequences for the safety of students and teachers. According to the FPÖ training spokesman Maximilian Krauss, there have been questionable events since September, including threats to teachers and classmates and the carrying of a knife that remained unanswered. The authorities only reacted as irresponsible after the state security became active.

unsustainable conditions at Vienna's schools

In another critical look at the situation at the schools in Vienna, Krauss describes that teachers are faced with the challenges of teaching in an increasingly violent environment. Children are hardly able to follow the lessons, and the condition has intensified so that police operations are part of the agenda. According to Krauss, these scandalous circumstances mean that schools from once a place of learning are degenerated into an angeldom in which disrespect and violence prevail. "The reality draws a different picture," explains Krauss and criticizes that the measures implemented by the Ministry of Education are not sufficient such as increasing school psychologists in order to pack the problems at the root.

The FPÖ therefore not only calls for an immediate investigation of the failures of the educational authorities, but also a complete realignment of Integration policy in schools. The integration has failed and there is an urgent rethinking, such as an immediate stop of the family reunification. Krauss also emphasizes that the language of teaching must be German to ensure basic education for all children. He demands an immediate need for action so that teachers and students can learn in a respectful and safe environment. This makes it clear that the time to act is long overdue in order to end such critical conditions at Vienna's schools, as in the reports of wieden.fpoe-wien.at is made clear.
