Annotation

The Teaching Qualification for Primary Schools with the teaching subject of Islamic Religion is a course with a predefined combination of subjects. German and Mathematics are also compulsory subjects. The degree course prepares students for teaching in primary schools (classes 1-4)\; Qualification to teach classes 1-6 is acquired in the teaching subjects.

The federal state government has set the preconditions for a denominational Islamic religious education at schools in the federal state. People who want to teach Islamic Religious Studies require (as with other denominations) a teaching qualification for Religious Studies that entitles them to teach the denominational subject.

The two organisations DITIB Landesverband Hessen and Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland e.V. are recognised as cooperation partners. They are responsible for awarding graduates on the undergraduate course with the teaching qualification.
