Investment program future education and care

The future education and care investment program (IZBB) was launched by the federal government under Chancellor Gerhard Schröder for the budget years 2003 to 2007. The IZBB was intended to "support the creation of a modern infrastructure in the all-day school sector and provide the impetus for needs-based offers in all regions." For this purpose, the federal government made a total of four billion euros available, which could be used both for the expansion of existing and for the creation of new all-day schools. The new construction, conversion, renovation or equipping of corresponding school buildings should be funded by December 31, 2008. The additional running costs or personnel costs resulting from the expansion of the school's full-day operation were not the subject of the IZBB. These had to and must be taken over by the school authorities on their own.

The then Federal Minister for Education and Research Edelgard Bulmahn signed on 29 April 2003 together with the ministers of culture of the country a corresponding administrative agreement .

Allocation of funds

The four billion euros in funding were made available in the financial years 2003 to 2007 as follows:

Allocation of the program costs
Budget year provided
2003 300 million euros
2004 1 billion euros
2005 1 billion euros
2006 1 billion euros
2007 700 million euros

The individual federal states were allocated precise proportions of the financial aid of the IZBB according to their share in the total of all students in the federal territory. The assessment basis was the number of pupils in the primary level and in the lower secondary level in the school year 2000/2001. The following distribution of the funding between the federal states resulted:

Distribution of funding among the federal states
state IZBB funds for the entire funding period
Baden-Württemberg 528,310,372 euros
Bavaria 595,541,888 euros
Berlin 147,186,407 euros
Bremen 28,282,101 euros
Hamburg 66,780,069 euros
Hesse 278,321,439 euros
Lower Saxony 394,617,429 euros
North Rhine-Westphalia 913,967,660 euros
Rhineland-Palatinate 198,440,621 euros
Schleswig-Holstein 135,041,588 euros
Saarland 49,036,422 euros
Brandenburg 130,054,625 euros
Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania 93,754,287 euros
Saxony 200,343,276 euros
Saxony-Anhalt 125,874,570 euros
Thuringia 114,447,246 euros

In 2003 , the Conference of Ministers of Education and Cultural Affairs redefined the term all-day school in order to make it easier to call up the funds .
Since then, all-day schools in Germany have been considered to be schools "where primary and lower secondary level I

  • In addition to the morning lessons, a full-day offer is made available for the students on at least three days a week, which includes at least seven hours a day,
  • lunch is provided for the participating pupils on all days of all-day operation,
  • the afternoon offers are organized under the supervision and responsibility of the school management, are carried out in close cooperation with the school management and are conceptually related to the morning lessons. "

This very broad interpretation of the term was incorporated into the guidelines by the federal states' ministries of culture, with which they laid down the modalities for the use of IZBB funds. In Lower Saxony, for example, not only all-day schools in the true sense of the School Act could benefit from the funding. Until 2004, they had to offer all-day courses on at least four days per school week; the day of instruction then usually lasted eight hours. Participation in two afternoon courses was still compulsory for all pupils in an all-day school in 2003. All-day schools also had to present a coordinated pedagogical concept according to which, for example, the daily routine for the pupils was rhythmized according to pedagogical aspects.

According to the Lower Saxony granting guideline of 2003, "schools with all-day offers that meet the criteria [...] decided by the Conference of Ministers of Education [...]" could receive IZBB funding instead. The state of Lower Saxony, like many other federal states, made it possible for itself to distribute IZBB funds without having to use additional teaching hours for newly approved full-time projects.

The funds from the subsidy program were within countries generally after -served basis awarded: the processing and approval took place after receipt of the application. If the annual budget was exhausted, the last applications submitted by the school authorities were postponed to the following year or no longer considered. As a rule, 90% of the expenses that the school authorities required for the one-time creation or expansion of an all-day infrastructure were funded.

Funded schools

With the help of the funding program, school authorities all over Germany expanded 7,192 schools, which are spread across the federal states as follows:

Numbers of supported schools
state sponsored schools
Baden-Württemberg 521
Bavaria 897
Berlin 378
Bremen 35
Hamburg 134
Hesse 333
Lower Saxony 336
North Rhine-Westphalia 2,852
Rhineland-Palatinate 370
Schleswig-Holstein 214
Saarland 236
Brandenburg 346
Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania 177
Saxony 148
Saxony-Anhalt 68
Thuringia 151

The following parts of the IZBB funds benefited the various school types :

Distribution of the funding to the school types
types of schools supported Share in the funding
primary school 52%
secondary schools 11%
high school 11%
Special school 8th %
Multiple courses 6%
secondary school 4%
comprehensive school 5%
Waldorf School 1 %
Others 2%

Extension of the approval period

The IZBB funding was initially called up hesitantly. On June 22nd, 2007, only 56% of the funds were used by the school authorities. For this reason, the funding period was extended by one year in the Coalition Agreement of the Grand Coalition (2005 to 2009) of November 11, 2005 in a supplementary information on the IZBB : The funds were now available until December 31, 2009.

In the years after the federal reform of 2006, the federal government was no longer able to provide further investment incentives in the school sector.
