Procedure details

Private vocational schools and private primary and secondary schools generally employ fully qualified teachers for the respective type of school. However, there are also teachers working there who are not fully trained for this type of school, e.g. teachers from other types of schools. Persons without a teaching qualification can also be granted a teaching license for private schools if they can provide evidence of professional and pedagogical training and examinations that are equivalent to or of equal value to the training and examinations of teachers at the corresponding public schools.

  • Certificates of education and professional activity (copies)
  • Curriculum vitae in tabular form with details of training institutions, duration of training and examinations as well as previous activities
  • A copy of the service contract (employment contract or fee contract)
  • extended certificate of good conduct (not older than 3 months) according to § 30 resp. § 30 a BZRG
  • Self-disclosure of criminal and investigative proceedings
  • Approval of the secondary employment by the employer (if required)
  • Confirmation of participation in pedagogical training measures (for permanent employment)
  • a copy of the teaching permit from another administrative district, if applicable
  • other documents relevant to the application (e.g. contract of secondment, Missio canonica/Vocatio)

A written application must be submitted to the government of the administrative district in which the school is located.

Costs are incurred. These can be obtained from the respective government.

The application must be submitted in good time before the planned assignment of the teacher.

The processing time depends on the quality and number of applications received by the relevant government.

  • Appeal procedure (optional); lodging an appeal

    If the objection has no suspensive effect, an application for suspension of enforcement can be made to the original authority or the objection authority in accordance with Section 80 (4) VwGO. Instead, an application for an order or restoration of the suspensive effect of the objection can be made to the competent Bavarian Administrative Court in accordance with Section 80 (5) VwGO.

    Please note: If it concerns the demand for public charges and costs (§ 80 Para. 2 Sentence 1 No. 1 VwGO), an application to the court is generally only admissible if the authority has previously rejected an application for suspension of enforcement (§ 80 Para. 6 VwGO).
