Security Service of the Reichsführer 4f Prag-Bubentsch, 16.5.1942. Sochsonweg SD-Leitsteil Prag Telesprecher 774-44 I SA 204 To the State Secretary at the Reich Protector in Bohemia and Moravia 4-Group Leader K.H. Fr a n k Prag. Betr.: Deutsche Schulverwaltung im Protectorat. Referring to the consultation of 11.5.42 lbal, the question of school administration in the Protectorate follows: The handling of questions of the German School Administration in the protectorate has for some time been markedly affected by the double track of the rich's own and autonomous school administration. The corresponding difficulties have been evident since the moment when reliable German school specialists were installed in the Prague Ministry of Education at the leading post and at the same time the group Tuition und Kultus (I/1o) continued to exert direct influence on the Reichsprotector and further direct contact with the lower or middle German school authorities (e.g., German district school inspectors). Thus there were often agreements between the group 962 I/1o and representatives of the German school administration, which, by excluding the German section heads of the Ministry of Education, took decisions on individual questions of the school ministry, first and foremost President Kraus, and the section heads I (Willinger) Na and II (Langhans), repeatedly learned only by detours 7 5/6.40 of orders relating to their actual employment sectors, through them subordinate bodies of the School Administration.
