Much of what was implemented back then is now part of the educational spectrum of the Berlin school reform, writes Wolfgang Schimmang in his contribution covering more than two decades about the Fritz Karsen School. He discusses the reforms of the 1920s and describes a time he experienced as a teacher in Neukölln-Britz. It is interesting that he attempts to draw connections to the present. The second volume of this school history avoids the difficulties that historians face when dealing with contemporary history. The contribution begins and then turns to the topics. Therefore, the second volume is introduced with a factually justified section.
