The school, also known as the Ketschendorf elementary school or formerly known as the New Home School , is located in the Ketschendorf district of Coburg .

history

The school was inaugurated on April 10, 1902. Before that, the Ketschendorfer school-age children had to run to Seidmannsdorf .

At the Ketschendorf primary school there are currently (2012) a total of four school classes , one per grade. The teaching staff consists of four teachers as class teachers, in addition to which there are teachers who only work temporarily at the school, such as three general teachers, three religion teachers, two subject teachers and one remedial teacher . The school also has a counseling teacher available. In the 2017/18 school year, the five full-time teachers looked after 81 students.

Due to the very low number of pupils, sometimes only around 80, the closure or merging with the primary school in the neighboring Coburg district of Creidlitz was often discussed. To prevent this, the school was to be expanded into a full -time school in 2010 , but this failed due to resistance from some parents.

The school has a work room , a computer room and an auditorium , but not a gym . The physical education therefore takes place in the nearby sports hall of the Ketschendorfer gymnastics club TVK . The school has a natural school yard ("school garden") with play equipment and a pavilion.

To settle disputes among the students, “peacemakers” are used who have been trained beforehand. So took z.

School building and architecture

The old school building of the elementary school Ketschendorf was built in 1901 by the master builder Renner from Stöppach under the supervision of Gottlieb Rehlein from Coburg for the then still independent community of Ketschendorf. The neo-renaissance building, designed in bricks with sandstone structures, is on a slight hillside in Neue Heimat 5 . It has a basement with Art Nouveau window frames , on which the ground floor stands as the mezzanine floor, followed by the upper floor and a developed hipped roof with slate.

The building floor plan is divided into a classroom wing on the right and the stairwell on the left. Arched windows characterize the classrooms. In a truss are knee-stock and a projecting eaves and three Krüppelwalmgauben present. A square clock roof turret with a high pitched roof forms the upper end. The stairwell with the entrance, protected by a wooden roof with carved columns, is marked by a two-axis risalit with a gable roof. A sandstone plaque dated 1901 and pyramids on the triangular gable adorn this section of the facade. The east side of the gable has a flat staircase risalit in the middle with a half- hip dwarf house . On the western side there is a toilet extension with half a Welscher hood on the upper floor. A two-armed staircase with turned wooden pillars is part of the interior design.

In the 1950s / 60s, an extension was built, which is connected to the old school building on the eastern side by a covered corridor.
