The Specialized Academy for Social Pedagogy of the Poor School Sisters of Our Lady is a Specialized Academy for Social Pedagogy in Munich . It is the oldest training facility in Bavaria for educators . The school is run by the poor school sisters of Our Lady . The religious order was founded in 1833 and the training center in 1843 by Maria Theresia Gerhardinger .
Training center
The single-run school trains teachers for:
- Crèche, kindergarten and after-school care center
- Homes, boarding schools
- curative educational institutions
- open child and youth work
The subject-related and the general technical college entrance qualification can be acquired at the school; the prerequisite is for further studies at universities of applied sciences for social education and, if necessary (with a required average grade of better than 1.5) at universities (see: Specialized Academy for Social Education ). There is also the option of acquiring a certificate in religious education (additional qualification), which relates to work in preschool institutions, in after-school care centers and other social and curative educational institutions.
In 2001 the social pedagogical seminar was introduced with the option of acquiring the state-certified nanny qualification after 2 years .
A scientific and at the same time practice-oriented education, the Christian image of man as well as the guiding principle from the life rule of the poor school sisters, to lead people to their full development as creatures and images of God and to enable them to use their gifts to make the earth humane, justify the special Commissioned by this specialist academy for social education.
history
In 1843 the Order of the Poor School Sisters, according to the Royal Guidelines from 1839 , a one-year training course for the training of heads of custodial institutions in the Munich monastery. The course was very popular, especially as there were no other training centers in Bavaria.
A still preserved curriculum from 1881 lists the following hours:
- Language and science lessons 4 hours
- Pedagogical instruction 3 hours
- Music 4 hours
- Formwork, manual work 2 hours
- Drawing 2 hours
- Gymnastics 1 hour
- Practice 15 hours
In 1899 it was converted into a seminar for youth care , which in 1918 moved to the new school building on Blumenstrasse. In the same year the training period was increased to two years. Admission to the seminar requires attending a three-year middle school or high school for girls . The trained girls and women were also allowed to take over the management of kindergartens and after-school care centers. It was not until 1931 that state guidelines were issued in Bavaria on the preliminary and training of kindergarten teachers and after-school care workers, on the basis of which the seminar for youth care received state recognition.
In 1935 another move to the new monastery building on Mariahilfplatz was imminent. But the training center was not allowed to be there for too long. As a denominational school, it was a thorn in the side of the Nazi authorities. The school was repeatedly checked for its political loyalty, despite adjustments to the regulations, as the following excerpt from the annual report 1935/36 attests:
- The teaching and timetable of the seminar was subject to the time-related changes required by the ministry for all institutions through the inclusion of racial studies and an increased contemporary attitude towards civic education.
- The national and other lessons were expanded, animated and deepened by various radio performances, namely the speeches of the Führer, national celebrations - such as on Labor Day, the Survey, and also by films - Thanksgiving film -, lectures - German colonies, foreign German, native dialects -, Visiting exhibitions - hygienic exhibition -, museums, zoo, hygienic facilities - sewage treatment plant -.
- Customs were also cultivated in home celebrations and participation in folk customs .
In 1942 the school had to cease operations and the rooms served as a hospital in the following years. The nuns took over all the services: nursing, administration, kitchen, laundry etc. The seminar was able to reopen as early as 1946, despite massive spatial restrictions. Like all Bavarian training centers for educators, the school changed its name several times:
- 1948: Technical school for kindergarten teachers, after-school care workers and youth care workers for the poor school sisters v. ULF
- 1950: Seminar for kindergarten teachers and after-school care workers for the poor school sisters vULF
- 1968: VULF School for Social Pedagogy for the Poor School Sisters
- 1972: Specialized Academy for Social Pedagogy of the Poor School Sisters vULF
