Justice and the right to continuing education
Education opportunities are unfairly distributed. In the area, too, of continuing education there are disadvantaged groups of persons who especially have already suffered discrimination during their initial vocational education and training.
The demand for equal opportunities which dates back to Aristotle and John Rawls implies that everyone who suffers as a result of insufficient or unsatisfactory results in their initial training should have a second chance.
Resulting from the case-laws of the Federal Constitutional Court on the freedom to choose an occupation and training, and on the principle of the welfare state, is the right to attend occupational continuing training, provided that this is possible. Eliminating disadvantages within, and by means of, the education system – according to the author’s arguments – is not only a question of legislation and financing but mainly one of enforcing a right to education.
