Not all schools are the same and not all educational systems work in the same way. In some countries, children go to school only in the morning. Others have classes abroad. Others study without books. It all depends on the country, its customs and its educational laws.

In Germany, for example, education is quite different from that in Spain.. In addition, each federative state has its own regulations, but, broadly speaking, it is divided into several stages. Preschool, which is not a mandatory stage and goes up to three years of age, primary education, which goes from three to ten years, and secondary stage, from 10 to 19 years of age. The way of teaching is something opposite to oursand this tiktoker knows her very well.

Alba is a Spanish teacher living in Germany, gives elementary classes and tells in ‘Las Aventuras de Alba’, his profile in TikToklas cultural, labor and educational differences between countries. One morning, a rather curious case occurred to him while he was giving art classes.

Children can leave class

To understand the context, she explains that the structure of her classroom is somewhat peculiar. It has a normal classroom, with its desk and desks, but then there is another classroom at the back, separated by a wall and a door, which is always open no matter what. In both roomsthe children receive their lessons, as in any other school.

The problem came when three students who were in the second classroom, further away from where the teacher was, disappeared. From being in the middle of a class to leaving no trace. Alba couldn’t believe it, although she says that this is not the first time it has happened, and she says that there “they always go to his house like Pedro.”

As there are three minors, of school age, the teacher comments that she did what she had to do, which is to notify the principal. But this does not end here, the director’s reaction is to frame, since she received the notice formally and recommended that she do nothing more. The children know “perfectly that they have to stay in class and, if they leave, it’s your problem, not the teacher’s,” the principal reminded him. Listening is believing, since in Spain the teachers are responsible for the students and their parents must be notified if they disappear from the center during school hours.
