Life
Ernst Fock studied in Halle , Rostock and Greifswald physics and chemistry together with mineralogy , graduated with an agricultural-business topic (see below) at the University of Greifswald Dr. phil., married the high school teacher Helene Martha Wrege (1884–1975) and was - after employment a. a. at the Kgl. Kaiser-Wilhelm-Realgymnasium in Berlin and at the German school in Antwerp - from 1909 as senior teacher and from 1927 as senior teacher at the August-Viktoria-Schule (Realgymnasium) in Liegnitz in Lower Silesia . He wrote various textbooks, of which the physics textbook in particular was widespread well beyond the 1970s. In the context of the current discussion about the necessary reforms in the education system and the comprehensive schools, his work on the unified school movement, which was already widely noticed at the time, is highly topical again.
As a result of the Second World War, he was initially expelled to Bodenfelde in southern Lower Saxony. In 1945 he and his wife founded the Oberweser private school in Lippoldsberg and headed it until 1954. From 1948 to 1951, he was also a member of the Northeim district council . After his retirement he lived in Göttingen, where he died in 1967.
