The disinfectant for teachers is delivered to schools in Hessen in five-liter canisters.

For fire and occupational health and safety reasons, however, these containers may not be stored in the school building and neither may the school principals or the employees of the secretariat refill them into smaller containers - unless they have completed a training course.

Otherwise only pharmacies are allowed to do this.

It is absurdities like these that make headmaster Stefan Wesselmann question the minds of the authorities.
