All-day schools face great challenges and at the same time many opportunities to jointly develop quality further. This makes exchange across sponsors and facilities all the more important.
Based on a district-wide needs survey of all-day schools, the Regional Education Office Oberberg and the Youth Office of the Oberberg District initiated a cross-sponsor info session for managers in all-day schools in 2025. The focus of the first event was on the topic “Spaces in All-Day Schools” – a key issue for the future design of all-day educational and care services.
The format is to take place once a year in the future. The events provide space for current information, professional exchange, and networking. The goal is to bring together experiences and perspectives from different institutions and sponsors, to pool synergies, and to jointly generate ideas for the further development of all-day schools.
The second event took place on September 11, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM at the former Hohenzollernbad in Gummersbach. The focus was on the topic “Integration of Morning and Afternoon Activities”.
How can morning and afternoon activities be better integrated in the best interest of children? What structures and collaborations are needed for this? And what experiences and good examples already exist in the Oberberg region?
The annual information event thus provides a platform for networking, knowledge transfer, and joint quality development – and strengthens the dialogue between leaders and sponsors of the Open All-Day Schools in the Oberberg district.
