Politician in Blumenthal: Trust in school campus is on the brink!

Blumenthal, Deutschland - in Blumenthal is currently being promoted an important school project that is of interest and also a certain distrust in politics. Nordbremer politician and the local office manager make up for the Blumenthal school campus. However, despite this support, the question remains unanswered what the priority of this project looks like on the list of the Bremen Senate. Weser Kurier reports that the political support through an alliance for the campus is also interpreted as an expression of distrust.

The urgency of the project is emphasized by the parties, especially for the residents of the Blumenthal district, who often feel dependent. The Senate had assured the budget negotiations not to save much into this district, but after the discussion about the campus, the reliability of these commitments remains questionable. Advisory Board politicians therefore plan to communicate more intensively with the flowerhalers via local developments in order to strengthen trust.

The construction of the school campus

A vocational school campus is being built on the site of the former Bremen wool combat, the shell of which should soon be completed. According to wfb Bremen, the shell construction work in the historic halls 43 and 44 is about to be completed, which should be completed by the end of February 2025. The roofing work is currently underway to close the concrete roof and the interior has already started. Great value is placed on insulation, drywall and plastering, and new windows were installed in compliance with the monument protection.

The first installation work for electricity, water and gas is planned in the first quarter of 2025. On top of that, extensions to the campus with an additional staircase and an extension to the sorting building are planned, which should expand the uses. An opening of the vocational school campus for the school year 2026/27 is planned, even if the original opening date cannot be kept in the summer of 2025 due to structural delays.

challenges and goals

The challenges that arise from the financial situation of the State of Bremen should not be underestimated. As already mentioned, there are open financing issues that lead to delays. Meanwhile, the campus should not only serve school education, but also bundle the regional and national offers. The aim is to shift the previous vocational offer from the Blumenthal school center and also to integrate modules from other schools.

The goals of the project are high. The Bildungserver Bremen emphasizes that it is about enabling all children in Bremen to start the best start. In order to achieve this, there must also be sufficient daycare places and existing daycare centers as well as schools have to be renovated and converted. 55 school construction projects have been completed since 2019 and over 5,000 additional daycare places have been created, but the increase in children and youth numbers demands quick action and flexible solutions.

Overall, the Blumenthal school campus remains an important matter, which is characterized by political support, local expectations and the challenges of practical implementation. The path is still long, but the cooperation between the Senate and the district could be the key to a successful project.
