Who shall I talk to?

The cost of integration support at school wearing the locally responsible social welfare institution, to which a corresponding application must be submitted. Integration assistance is provided in the general school and in the special school. Pursuant to section 92 (2) sentence 1 no.2 and sentence 2 SGB XII, neither the income nor the assets of the pupils or their legal guardians are taken into account when granting integration assistance at school.
- In the case of children and adolescents with mental disabilities (e.g. autism, ADHD), it must be checked whether it is possible to assume the costs of integration assistance in accordance with the provisions of Social Code VIII (§ 35a (1) in conjunction with (3) SGB VIII) , For this group of people, a corresponding application must be submitted to the local youth welfare office.
- If pupils are entitled to treatment care in accordance with Section 37 (2) of the Social Code V compared to their (statutory) Health insurance have this entitlement also during the duration of the school attendance.
