Subject to the approval of the committees and the approval of the Hessian Ministry of Culture, new study and examination regulations will come into force for the Teaching Qualification for Primary Schools in the winter semester 2023/24. It is envisaged that you will have to study three subjects, one of which will be studied as a so-called "long subject" amounting to 50 CP and the other two as "short subjects" amounting to 24 CP each. Furthermore, the subjects of Mathematics and German in Hesse are compulsory for all L1 students. The third subject can be freely chosen. A detailed description of the course structure will be available soon on the ABL website (link is not yet active).
