The teachers committee of a high-school in Hannover has demanded the firing of Karl-Heinz Kausch who was suspended for neo-Nazi activities but later reinstated by order of the Minister of Culture of Lower Saxony. Kausch presently serves as principal of the Hannoversch-Muendener School. The committee stated in a letter to the teachers union in Hannover that Kausch’s presence in the school constitutes a burden. The letter was sent after 49 of the 79 faculty members protested his reinstatement. Only 12 teachers supported it.
