The P-Class Dual System provides targeted support for ninth-year students with low academic prospects, focusing on building life skills and fundamental knowledge in German and Mathematics. The program aims to stabilize personal development and reduce deficits in core subjects, preparing students for future employment. Admission is voluntary and requires parental approval, with practical training days and partnerships with external organizations. The program does not guarantee completion of traditional schooling but equips students with essential skills for work. Challenges include coordination among teachers, companies, and social workers, as well as issues like absenteeism and re-orientation within the class.
