history
The study seminar Leer for teaching at grammar schools began on August 1, 1969 in Emden . From January 1, 1977 to June 30, 2009 it was housed in the Evenburg in Leer- Loga . Since July 1, 2009, it has been in the City-Haus in downtown Leer (East Frisia) .
tasks
Study seminars are institutions of the federal states with tasks in teacher training . Teacher training is two-phase in Germany. The first phase with academic studies in two subjects takes place at universities and leads to a Master of Education in most federal states . The second phase, the preparatory service, which usually lasts 18 months, takes place in the study seminars and ends with a state examination qualifying for a career .
In addition to the two-phase nature, the anchoring of the preparatory service in the area is an essential feature. Study seminars secure the connection from the universities to the schools, they ensure innovation and knowledge transfer and they train young professionals at the schools in a region.
At certain times, the contribution to the educational infrastructure is of particular importance. During the teacher shortage phase of the 1970s, the Leer study seminar succeeded in attracting a little more than half of the graduates for a position at a school in the region.
