Struggling students find temporary solace in subpar school hub
In the midst of revitalizing their secondary school in Berlin-Friedrichshain, pupils seek refuge in a makeshift "school center" on Werneuchener Wiese, situated in Berlin-Pankow. Discussions about this interim shelter have been ongoing since 2007 but were delayed due to unreadiness of rooms.
Despite the ongoing academic year, classes are still being conducted within the construction site. For instance, the sports hall has been shut down since Monday due to a malfunctioning heating system, keeping the temperature at an unpleasant 14 degrees.
Computer labs remain inoperative, causing the cancellation of classes. Chemistry lessons bypass hands-on experimentation due to a faulty fume hood. Broken ventilation in windowless toilets add to the pupils' inconvenience. Additionally, adjustable window blinds are not functional and a jammed fire door distress parents.
Identified defects need to be corrected by the contractor immediately, yet critical components, such as the fire door and ventilation system parts, remain unavailable. Their arrival? A mystery.
The Senate boasts this project as a historic achievement, completed in less than two years with the school community's agreement. The move was transparent, disclosing the remaining tasks.
Despite the extensive list of drawbacks, the educational administration dives headfirst into celebrating the school's opening in the presence of State Secretary Torsten Kühne. Meanwhile, parents remain vehemently opposed to the celebration, planning to protest outside the school.
