The National Socialist Teachers League (German: Nationalsozialistischer Lehrerbund, NSLB), was established on 21 April 1929.

[2] Its founder and first leader was former schoolteacher Hans Schemm, the Gauleiter of Bayreuth.

On October 27, 1938, the NSLB opened its own Realschule for teacher training in Bayreuth.

In order to achieve this it sought to have an effect on the political viewpoint of educators, insisting on the further development of their spirit along Nazi lines.

Organized mountain excursions in places called Reichsaustauschlager (Exchange Camps of the Reich) were perceived as helping in this purpose.
