English Translation
- 3 - The school inspector is responsible for all types of schools, i.e. the Ukrainian, Polish and Volksdeutschen a German district school council. A Ukrainian and a Polish inspector are attached to him as an auxiliary organ. All Polish school books have been collected. As a result of the lack of any books and teaching regulations, a too generous and uncontrollable freedom of movement of Polish teachers for the design of teaching was soon established, a Polish weekly school newspaper is now being introduced, which is under the supervision of a German editor. History and geography teaching is prohibited for Polish schools. - Because young people are needed for the maintenance of industry and business in the Generalgou- vernement, the Polish technical and vocational schools have also been opened up for the most part. In some of these institutions the tendency emerged that the teachers tried to give in a chauvinistic way history and geography instruction, in which great Polish ideas were represented. The closure of these institutes is imminent. - An opening of Polish universities will not take place. Only for the exam semesters in the subjects of medicine, technology and commercial high school, the Governor-General considered the examination in Warsaw. However, the question remains open whether these examinations are legally recognized by the German authorities. In the Ukrainian minority areas, schools have been opened everywhere in Ukraine, where at least 40 children have been registered. Education in Ukrainian scattered settlements is to be provided by Ukrainian migrant teachers. On the day of the leader's birthday, the Governor-General of the Ukrainian minority planned elementary schools with its own Ukrainian school law, secondary schools and an institute for Ukrainian studies."
