Marchtal plan

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Marchtaler Plan is the framework plan for the Catholic Free Schools in the Rottenburg-Stuttgart diocese . It was named after its place of origin, the Obermarchtal Monastery , which today houses the Catholic Academy of Teacher Training.

In 1984 the Marchtaler Plan was introduced as an upbringing and education plan for the Catholic primary and secondary schools . Marchtal plans are now available for all types of general education, for the technical school for social pedagogy and for various special schools .

The Marchtaler Plan took up essential ideas of the Montessori pedagogy and approaches of Peter Petersen and implemented them in his own way. The Marchtaler Plan has been an essential moment of innovation in Baden-Württemberg in recent years , which also radiated into many state schools. It pursues a holistic concept, which can be seen from the fact that the subject religion no longer appears, but is processed holistically in the other hours.

Basics and goals

The content of the Marchtaler Plan is based on the curricula of the state of Baden-Württemberg for the respective school type. The goals of upbringing and education according to the Marchtaler Plan are:

  • Providing education and knowledge
  • Holistic personal and social education
  • Moral and religious upbringing

Structural elements

The lessons include the following subjects:

  • Morning circle : After the weekend, the week begins with the “morning circle”, a “quiet exercise” with a view of the center and saying goodbye to what has been, and ends with the “closing circle” at the end of the week.
  • Free silent work: Free silent work includes silent work in a prepared learning environment with a free choice of topic, time, form of work, partners and space. Smaller projects are also allowed.
  • Networked lessons : Networked lessons go beyond the conventional structure of the material according to subjects and provide an ethical, social and religious link between the areas to be taught (depending on the type of school, religious studies, home and general studies, history, social studies, geography, physics, chemistry and biology ). The content of the subject German is generally networked with the teaching units by the teacher.
