Stuttgart (dpa / lsw) - After the nationwide decision for a tough corona lockdown, schools and daycare centers in Baden-Württemberg will be closed from Wednesday.
As the German Press Agency in Stuttgart learned from government circles on Sunday, the Christmas holidays are to be moved forward in order to avoid further contacts.
The heads of the green-black coalition have agreed on this.
Prime Minister Winfried Kretschmann (Greens) wanted to explain the new requirements in the fight against the persistently high number of corona infections at 3:30 p.m.
There should only be distance learning for students in the final grades, it was said in government circles.
In addition, emergency care is planned for children whose parents work in so-called systemically important professions such as doctors or nurses.
The Prime Minister and Chancellor Angela Merkel (CDU) agreed on Sunday morning that schoolchildren and daycare children across Germany should stay at home for three and a half weeks at the latest from Wednesday at the latest - whenever possible.
