Closing event "Together for Quality: Children participate in all-day education" (BmFSFJ program)

The ESF Plus program "Gemeinsam für Qualität: Kinder beteiligen im Ganztag" is coming to an end. A central component of the program is the qualification of selected educational specialists as process facilitators for participatory school development at the participating schools.
On behalf of the BMFSFJ, the research team from the Evangelische Hochschule Berlin and Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin has developed a nationwide training curriculum for the process support of participatory school development. The qualification has been tested and will now be presented and discussed with many practical examples and experiences. The results of this reflection process are intended to illustrate the potential for the future of democratic development in all-day schools.

VUVS Conference 2024 "Learning process support at experimental and university schools"

The network meetings of the member organizations of the Association of Experimental and University Schools (VUVS) usually serve as a general meeting, the thematic exchange in a symposium and offer school observations at the host institution.

The conference in the anniversary year 2024 will be dedicated to the question of the extent to which experimental and university schools can be effective as development and transfer actors in the field of learning process support. The basis for the discussion is a joint research project of the Helene Lange School in Wiesbaden (accompanied by the University of Frankfurt am Main) together with the Bielefeld experimental schools and their scientific institutions as well as the university schools in Dresden and Cologne with their respective research centers.
