The subsidy is partially flat-rate. It is calculated on the basis of eligible teaching hours per week and additional hours per week (credit and reduction hours), which depend on the type and size of the school in question. The funding rates for private, state-approved vocational schools range from 79% to 100%, depending on the type of school. State-approved private vocational schools that meet certain requirements and appear to be equivalent to comparable public schools receive the same funding rates as state-approved private vocational schools. On the other hand, state-approved private vocational schools that do not meet these requirements receive a funding rate of 65% of the funding rate for state-approved private schools (further requirements must then be met).
Funding is granted for the rental costs or comparable transfer fees for school premises of private - state-approved or state-recognized - vocational schools for nursing.
For municipal vocational schools, the state grants a subsidy for teaching staff (teaching staff subsidy).
