The SPD opposition in North Rhine-Westphalia is calling for all school children to return to school quickly with the help of extensive corona tests and hygiene measures.
Two thirds of school children are still excluded from classroom teaching in North Rhine-Westphalia, criticized the SPD parliamentary group leader Thomas Kutschaty on Thursday in the Düsseldorf state parliament.
He asked School Minister Yvonne Gebauer (FDP) to present the further opening plans immediately.
Prime Minister Armin Laschet (CDU) informed the state parliament about the latest federal-state resolutions on the corona crisis.
On Wednesday, in a video conference lasting more than nine hours with Chancellor Angela Merkel (CDU), the prime ministers agreed to extend the lockdown to March 28th due to the continued high number of infections.
However, depending on the infection, there should be opening options.
In terms of content, he didn't have much to criticize, said opposition leader Kutschaty.
However, there is a lack of plausible explanations for citizens.
The federal-state resolutions can be read like a long, complicated package insert for a medicine with risks and side effects.
“You can only implement what you understand,” warned Kutschaty.
Laschet did not explain why the target of 35 new infections per 100,000 inhabitants within seven days suddenly hardly played a role and instead the 50 and even the 100 were pushed into the foreground as the threshold for opening steps.

Kutschaty also called for an intelligent test strategy.
It is to be welcomed that all students and teachers as well as supervisors in schools and daycare centers should be tested for Corona once a week.
However, this should not be done in the morning "in a circle of chairs", but preferably at home before infectious children are sent on their way to school.
It is no longer acceptable that half of the capacities for corona tests in Germany are not used at all.
