Diversity in the classroom = diversity in the staffroom!
Schools today are characterised by cultural diversity. Pupils from different countries of origin, who have lived in Germany for a short time or for several generations, learn together in the classroom. Teachers with a migration background, however, are an exception - only a small percentage of teachers have a migration background.
Yet it is precisely these teachers who are needed as competent role models and confidants. With their educational background, their intercultural, linguistic and professional skills, they can help to improve pupils' learning success and enrich schools as a whole. For this reason, we would like to attract young people with a migration background to study to become teachers.
The orientation days offer pupils with a migration background an insight into a teacher training programme and provide information about the teaching profession. To this end, experts from teacher training and school practice as well as student teachers are available as contact persons for the pupils.
What requirements does the teaching profession entail? What is the course of study and preparatory service like? What diverse experiences does the academic appointment entail? What funding opportunities are available as part of a degree programme? These and many other questions will be answered during the orientation days at the University of Oldenburg.
