New specialist office in Gießen is fighting school absenteeism: Help instead of punishment!

In Gießen, a new specialist office for combating school absenteeism starts. This initiative, which emerges from a cooperation between the city and the school office, faces serious problems that go far beyond the occasional tails. School office manager Norbert Kissel emphasized that unexcused lack of lessons often indicate deeper social and psychological problems that can damage young people and even lead to crime. The specialist office officially starts your work next Monday and will be managed by Vanessa Löffler, a social worker, and Sebastian Mende, a special school teacher.

According to current statistics, there are around 400 documented cases of school absenteeism in Gießen, with experts even suspecting up to 800 affected people. The specialist office has the order to support young people instead of punishing them by researching the causes of the frequent absence from class and developing tailor -made help. This is intended to help break the dangerous vicious cycle of absenteeism and poor school performance. The two experts want to work closely with the schools and improve the communication and support structure in order to help affected students in good time.
