English Translation

- 6 - from the following points of view: l.) Simplification of the administration and savings in personnel and in correspondence between the school inspectorate and the pupils/one considers only what it means, instead of having to deal with more than 1 2oo schools only with about 360 !/, 2.) more efficiencies in teaching / enabling the formation of specialized classes for the individual professions and thus vocational education ; if the number of pupils is too low, the education of specialised classes is not possible, i.e. (iii) better management of the individual schools / small schools with few teachers cannot afford to have their own correspondingly qualified director/, 4.) preparatory work for the intended transition to the establishment of real district vocational schools / speaking the district vocational school in the rest of the Reich/. The results for the new Mergmännigchen vocational schools already mentioned in the last quarterly report are available as follows: 14 approved mountain vocational schools / 7 in Bohemia and 7 in Moravia/ with together 47 classes and l.l20 pupils. Of these, a / Moravian-Ostrau-Oderfurt/ is a German school with 2 classes and 3l pupils. All the l4 schools, with the exception of a single one /Nutschitz/, which was already discovered in lg2o, are newly founded in the last two years. It should be noted that in the construction of the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia on 1 May 1939 there was a single training school for mining, which had a total of 45 pupils. The new mountain vocational schools have been established and are entirely maintained by the enterprises under the supervision of the mountain authorities on the basis of Reg. Vdg. of 3.7.1993, Coll. No. 2oo. With the staff of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Labour /Mining/ and of the ministry of the interior, a new regulation of the supervision of the mining vocational schools was abolished, according to which, as in the rest of the Reich, the administration and supervision in the middle stage are transferred from the state authorities to the mining authorities.
