How did this happen? A tech/code affine teacher with contacts?

The schools in my district in Germany can't even manage to set up reliable wired internet, and the few rooms with projectors all are stocked with Apple TVs to ensure that only students with rich parents can participate in classes.

In theory there's the Netzwerk Freie Schulsoftware https://digitalcourage.de/netzwerk-freie-schulsoftware which is supposed to help schools make use of free software instead of proprietary solutions, but in practice the people most likely to know that it even exists are also those who are least likely to need the help.
