Stuttgart (dpa / lsw) - After attacks by the SPD and FDP on Minister of Education Susanne Eisenmann, Prime Minister Winfried Kretschmann defended the school policy of the green-black coalition rather half-heartedly.

In a round of top candidates for the state election on SWR television, the Green politician protested against the fact that SPD leader Andreas Stoch had given the minister and CDU top candidate a grade of 6.

He was also a teacher and couldn't remember “that I once handed out a 6.

Everyone can do a little bit ».

Stoch and FDP top candidate Hans-Ulrich Rülke had criticized that there was no reliable school policy in the Corona crisis.

While Eisenmann was a pioneer for open schools, Kretschmann tended to slow down.

It was like a "surprise bag", no one knew what was coming, said Rülke.

In addition, the minister of education missed to push ahead with the digitization of schools.

The CDU top candidate told her predecessor in the Ministry of Education, Stoch, that she had cut teaching positions in the election period up to 2016 and had not made sure that new teachers were trained.

"Anyone who throws grades around must see for themselves what they have achieved," said Eisenmann to the address of the SPD top candidate.
