To implement the instructions of the populist President of the Republic, the matter was, if one may say, well conducted. The government was teaching his slogans to taste nostalgic while offering families the prospect of well-filled weekend. The Minister renewed his promises of cooperation while imposing drastic measures and inconsistent positions as to the content. He proposed at once a return to "fundamentals" and openness to new materials, while 26h to 24h from weekly teaching. And, as if to add still in incoherence and political pettiness, local authorities were not in any way associated with the necessary reorganization of thinking required in this time of the student, families and the all of social life.
We do not satisfy the status quo. While social inequalities in educational attainment are still so evident, that all families the expectations of the school remain high, a firm policy should be implemented to prevent an early age and academic difficulties better ensure the meeting of all students with the knowledge and school practices. The results of research show that it is to return to their place of learning nursery and elementary schools, enhancing their consistency, take the time to the explanation expectations and regularity of work asked students to better distribute the lessons on the week and year. Now the government is preparing a policy debacle. With less than 140 school days per year, France would be at a level most mediocre among comparable countries. But it should also undergo programs impossible at once incomplete and sometimes incredibly accurate, and generally unenforceable. And solve the concentration of tissue at school, abandoning any prospect of development of school support as an integral part of compulsory education. If supported by the school support outside of school hours can be an interesting track, it does not constitute a real school policy, or do without thinking of all the programs and the work asked the student. And, as regards the application of new instructions, it is unclear what may result from such paradoxical injunctions. Will it liquidate science education, history, geography, visual arts and physical education, to sacrifice teaching "fundamentals" themselves, by their contraction on days untenable in sterile repetition and stigmatization of students most in need?
We know in advance which groups will bear the brunt of such a policy. The class families will thus be subjected to conditions of schooling makes it increasingly likely stall, loss of hope of success and abandonment. Families of middle and upper classes as they would lose in another way, forced to go a little more fattening pharmacies private lessons. It is high time that the intellectual community, parents, teachers and all interested citizens to the cause of public schools meet to put an end to the cons-reform, creating the conditions for a different future for what constitutes the basis of the entire education system .
