Vocational college Cuno in The Hague could potentially resume partial operations

The city of Hagen's Cuno Vocational College may potentially reopen after the fall break, according to on-site reporters and the city's Mayor Erik O. Schulz. The school, which consists of four buildings, has been closed due to severe fire safety deficiencies, particularly in Building A, the largest part of the college.

Three of the school's buildings are expected to reopen, making 47 classrooms available again. The reopening will include the installation of two temporary staircases for emergency exit purposes. Specifically, the metalworking shop, the woodworking shop, and the toilet facilities in Building A can be reopened soon.

The reopening of the school has been met with protests from students and teachers, who have accused the city of knowing about the deficiencies for a long time. The mayor, however, cannot entirely dismiss this accusation. While no specific date has been provided for the reopening of the three buildings, it is scheduled to occur after the fall break.

The city of Hagen is a source for the information about the college and its buildings. However, no information about the reconstruction measures for Building A was found in the available search results. The largest part of the building requires comprehensive renovation or even demolition and rebuilding due to the severe fire safety deficiencies.

Despite the challenges, the news of the potential reopening of the school has brought a glimmer of hope to the students and teachers who have been affected by the closure. The community eagerly awaits further updates on the specific date for the reopening and the long-term plans for the renovation of Building A.
