Karin Prien suggested a quota system to limit immigrant students in German schools, aiming to assess models used in other countries. Many schools, like Sabine Schwarz's in North Rhine-Westphalia, have a high percentage of immigrant pupils. Schwarz critiques Prien's proposal as impractical, citing a lack of sufficient German-speaking families. She argues against the stereotype that immigrant children perform worse academically, noting their strong interest in education. Additionally, she points out that changes in enrollment laws have driven local families away from diverse schools.
Karin Prien suggested a quota limiting migrant numbers in German schools should be considered, indicating that Germany should evaluate other countries' models for feasibility.
Sabine Schwarz, a school head, finds the proposal unrealistic, pointing out that there aren't sufficient German-speaking individuals to create such a quota.
Schwarz notes the misconception that higher migrant numbers correlate with lower educational outcomes, stressing that many immigrants value education highly.
The abolition of local primary school mandates in North Rhine-Westphalia led to many parents avoiding schools with high immigrant populations, fearing negative impacts on their children.
