Climate activist Lisa Poettinger is not allowed to start her traineeship at a Bavarian school – apparently because of her activism. As reported by the Süddeutsche Zeitung (SZ), the responsible Ministry of Culture has refused Poettinger admission to the preparatory service for teaching at grammar schools despite successfully completing her state examination. Poettinger announced on the social network Bluesky that she would take legal action against this. Other media have already taken up the case. According to Poettinger, a press conference is planned for Feb. 6.
