Der Umgang mit Antisemitismus im Unterricht

The study "Dealing with Antisemitism in the Classroom" makes an important contribution to the professionalization of teachers and school leaders in addressing antisemitism in schools. The impetus for this study comes from the author's experience as a former teacher, where she increasingly faced antisemitism in the school environment. In this qualitative reconstructive study, 17 narrative interviews were conducted with 17 teachers (including 3 Jewish teachers), resulting in the reconstruction of four types. The relevance of the topic of antisemitism was a key point, which all interview partners were aware of. Only one type of teacher was documented to have a professional approach to antisemitism in schools. Similarly, school leaders, who were assigned an important role by the teachers in dealing with antisemitism, could only partially meet the requirements regarding professionalism in this context for one type.
