If you believe the “calculation formula” of Education Minister Martin Polaschek of the ÖVP, the teacher shortage has almost been eliminated. The SPÖ comes to a different conclusion with the calculation and shows: in the previous year alone, teachers had to work 4 million overtime hours, which cost the taxpayer 240 million euros. The “Krone” has taken a closer look at the matter.
From next Monday, the seriousness of life will start again for all Austrian students. Shortly after the start of education in the East and shortly before the elections for the National Council on September 29, politicians will also be taking a close look at the red-white-red classrooms and teachers’ rooms. Only a week and a half ago, ÖVP Education Minister Martin Polaschek gave himself a very good report card.
