The Socialist Faction Voices Disapproval of the Commission's Proposed Plan

In the ongoing education reform, career guidance is receiving more emphasis. However, a recent decision by the Stuttgart state government to terminate co-financing for a special accompaniment programme has sparked debate.

Katrin Steinhübl-Joos, the SPD state parliament education expert, has criticized this move, arguing that it could potentially limit opportunities for students. On the other hand, Sandra Boser from the Greens has argued that the state is strengthening chances for contact and follow-up by fostering cooperation between schools and the Federal Employment Agency to monitor students with problems.

The termination of co-financing, it seems, only affected 11% of relevant schools. This decision was made despite the fact that career guidance plays a crucial role in supporting students' vocational orientation in German schools, including those in Baden-Württemberg, where Stuttgart is the capital.

Brigitte Johanna Henkel-Waidhofer was not explicitly mentioned in the text. A search for detailed information on the termination of career guidance at schools in Stuttgart or the state government's response to such an event has yielded no specific results. General information on vocational guidance in Germany can be found, but there is no detail on any termination or government response specific to Stuttgart.

As this issue may be recent or emerging, up-to-date local news sources or official announcements from the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Education would be the best references to consult for more details on the event and the government’s response. Without explicit information from the search, it is not possible to provide further details on the termination or the government’s response at this time.

Boser has admitted that the new approach may not be well-known yet, but she emphasizes the potential benefits for students. As the situation unfolds, it will be interesting to see how this development impacts the vocational training pathways of students in Stuttgart and beyond.

The education-and-self-development policy-and-legislation concerning career guidance in Stuttgart has been under debate due to the recent decision by the Stuttgart state government to terminate co-financing for a special accompaniment programme. Learning more about this issue is crucial for understanding how the education-and-self-development policy-and-legislation may evolve in terms of supporting students in their vocational orientation. News sources covering general-news in Baden-Württemberg, where Stuttgart is the capital, may provide updates on the current status and future implications of this development.
