Question

What happened in schools under Nazism?

Answer 1

Hint: Nazism is a fascist movement that rejects liberal democracy and the parliamentary system. Its beliefs include virulent antisemitism, anti-communism, scientific racism, and the application of eugenics. Pan-Germanism gave birth to its radical nationalism.

Complete answer:
Teachers who were Jewish were fired. Children were initially separated. Germans and Jews were not allowed to sit or play together. As a result, 'undesirable youngsters,' such as Jews, physically challenged children, and Gypsies, were expelled from schools. German youngsters were subjected to a long period of ideological training known as Nazi schooling. Textbooks in schools were rewritten. To legitimise Nazi race theories, racial science was established. Even math classes helped to popularise anti-Semitic stereotypes. Children were taught to be subservient and loyal, to despise Jews, and to love Hitler. Even sports had the purpose of instilling in youth a mentality of anger and hostility.

Boys with leadership potential were transferred to a special Adolf Hitler School. These were free boarding schools for males aged 12 to 18 years that were administered on military lines. Many university instructors were fired in 1933. Universities, on the other hand, saw fewer modifications than schools. Students were required to attend exercise and indoctrination lessons twice a week, but not everyone showed up. Only 11% of university spots went to females.

Note: Teachers were required to attend summer school in order to successfully teach Nazi beliefs. Pupils were urged to report teachers who did not teach or promote Nazi ideals to the authorities. Subjects like chemistry and mathematics were given less weight. Religious education was outlawed by the end of the 1930s.
