Saxony School Pornography Allegations Prompt Bundestag Debate

The AfD is using the case to press its call for politically neutral classrooms.

Overview

  • The AfD secured a special debate in the Bundestag on reports that ninth-graders at Oberschule Schleife were shown pornographic images during a workshop.
  • School leaders halted the project and ended the contract with the organizers after the incident, and the Amadeu Antonio Foundation said it stopped its funding for the workshop.
  • Parents filed criminal complaints, and police opened an investigation on suspicion of distributing pornographic content to minors.
  • The workshop was run by the youth group Die Falken, which has expressed regret over the episode.
  • Right-leaning outlet Junge Freiheit reports further claims such as pronoun exercises, anti-AfD flyers, and partial school funding, though these details have not been widely corroborated.
