Security in schools: How do we protect our children after the killing spree?

Graz, Österreich - On June 12, 2025, a tragic killing spree occurred in Graz, in which a total of eleven people lost their lives. This terrible act has triggered an intensive discussion about security at Austria's schools. In the past, schools have been in the headlines several times due to bomb threats and other safety -relevant incidents, which reinforces the concerns of parents and society.

To pursue these topics, a discussion round on Friday, June 13, 2025, will be broadcast on ORF III and ORF ON on the program "Zur Nach". The experts Reiter Reitsamer, Heidi Schrodt (Education Expert), Christian Klar (director of the Jedlesee middle school), Kurt Scholz (former city school council president Vienna) and Hubert Patterer (editor -in -chief of the small newspaper) will deal with the question of how to protect children in schools and to what extent is one hundred percent protection at all.

school experiences and security

The debate about school security not only puts the current incidents in the foreground, but also the measures that have been taken in the past. Bomb threats have repeatedly led to a tense situation at schools in which parents and students are under equal pressure. These recurring challenges raise the question of how sensible the existing security concepts are and whether they have to be adapted to today.

The experts concerned in the upcoming program will also respond to the psychological effects of such incidents. It is important not only to discuss preventive measures, but also how the traumatic experiences can be dealt with that leave such events.

In many parts of Austria, parents feel concerned about the well -being of their children, especially after dramatic events such as the killing spree in Graz.
