The Saxony Philologists' Association does not believe in a migration quota in primary school classes. "On the one hand, even children without a history of migration sometimes have great difficulties in using the German language of education, and on the other hand, such an idea is not feasible from a purely administrative point of view," said state chairman Thomas Langer to the German Press Agency in Leipzig.
A migration quota would require a fundamental change in the distribution mechanism of children to be enrolled in elementary school. Currently, the cities and municipalities distribute the children to the educational institutions via their respective school districts. "This would have to be abolished and primary school pupils would have to be distributed by quota across the towns. Nobody wants that," Langer continued.
