Potsdam (dpa / bb) - From the point of view of the state student council, learning under Corona conditions was not sufficiently taken into account in this year's Abitur.

You could have given the students a further choice of the exam topics to be completed, said chairwoman Katharina Swinka of the German press agency on Wednesday.

Because despite face-to-face teaching, they would often have had to teach the subject matter themselves, as the teachers had to split up the classes in the pandemic and therefore could not always be present.

"This is not an adequate lesson for me," criticized the student representative.

The exams for around 10,000 high school graduates in Brandenburg began on Wednesday. You can continue to come to schools for this, but corona self-tests are necessary. The secondary schools have been closed again except for the final classes since April 12, the elementary schools close again on three following days if the incidence is seven days or more.

Like the Pedagogue Association, Swinka nevertheless believes it is right that this year's graduation will not be a “Notabitur”.

That would put the vintage, which has already had enough difficulties due to Corona, in an even worse light, she estimated.

“It would also be unfair to the students who have been preparing for the Abitur for so long.

Education Minister Britta Ernst (SPD) had emphasized that it would not be a «Notabitur» but a demanding Abitur.
