AK sounds the alarm
Almost every second pupil needs tutoring
According to the "Tutoring Barometer" survey conducted by the Chamber of Labor, 49 percent of all pupils in Austria now make use of tutoring. Demand has risen sharply from 30 percent a year ago.
The result of the high demand: the free services are no longer nearly enough to cope with the onslaught - with the result that 22 percent of all pupils have to resort to paid services.
What also stands out in the survey: 71% of parents stated that their children do not have sufficient opportunity to practise the content taught in all subjects.
For Bernhard Heinzle, President of the Vorarlberg Chamber of Labor, this is an alarm signal: "It is unacceptable that pupils have to travel home to learn! Our schools must finally change from places of teaching to places of learning."
He once again pleads for the model of the common school: "That would save a lot of pressure, stress and - at least in the case of tutoring - also money."
