The government agrees on new rules. They want better learning in Austria. Kindergartens get a new law.
This law is for all of Austria. One group has max 22 children. Before there were 25 children. Smaller groups help the children.
The training for assistants becomes the same everywhere. It is easier to work in another state. Many things change in schools too.
One office manages the staff now. This is the Bildungs-Direktion. This office is the boss for most staff.
There is a new group of staff. They are called support teachers. They help in free time or in class. This helps to have more schools for the whole day.
Schools can decide more things themselves. This is called Autonomie. The schools choose their own staff.
Computer programs for office work are all the same. This saves money and time.
Christoph Wiederkehr has a new idea. He wants a rule for heat. If it is too hot, children go home. But the care for children must be safe.
