Country consistently upholds its role as a steadfast ally in the field of school social work
In a move that is set to benefit numerous public schools across Germany, the state government has confirmed that funding for School Social Work will remain unchanged for the school years 2025/2026 and 2026/2027. This assurance comes after a letter was sent to Cities, Municipalities, County Council, and the Association for Youth and Social Welfare, officially clarifying the stable funding amounts for School Social Work.
The state government annually provides approximately 45 million euros for School Social Work, a figure that has nearly tripled since 2012. This substantial investment underscores the government's commitment to supporting schools and their students.
So far, all fully submitted applications for School Social Work funding have been approved. The funding will be made available to city administrations, benefiting multiple municipalities, although specific city administrations have not been explicitly named in the sources available.
The quota for School Social Work funding is not yet fully exhausted, allowing for more positions at other schools to be funded. Currently, around 80% of public schools benefit from the state funding for School Social Work.
Social Minister Manne Lucha has emphasized that the state government is a reliable partner for schools and municipalities. No cuts to School Social Work funding are planned for the upcoming school years, ensuring that the essential services provided by School Social Workers continue to support students and schools.
This stable funding for School Social Work is a significant step towards ensuring that students in public schools across Germany have access to the necessary support services. The government's commitment to the School Social Work programme underscores its dedication to supporting the education and well-being of students in the state.
