Question 10775 — French people abroad

Summary

Ms. Amélia Lakrafi draws the attention of the Minister of National Education to the situation of so-called “resident” French teachers established outside France, whose renewal of secondment to the AEFE (Agency for French Education Abroad) has been refused by their original academy. These decisions - the number of which has increased considerably in recent years - are often experienced by those concerned as an element likely to jeopardize their balance of life. In many cases, professionals who choose to emigrate as residents plan to settle abroad in the long term. As such, they build a significant part of their existence there. Without ignoring the principle of necessity of service to which they are subject, the non-renewal of their secondment places them for most faced with a difficult choice. An unwanted return to France forces them to draw a line under everything they have built in their country of residence. The prospect of being placed on leave with a view to being recruited in the same establishment on a local contract - when this is offered to them - forces them to accept a halt to their career development, with all that this implies in particular financially. There The vast majority of decisions to refuse to renew the secondment are motivated by the shortage of teachers and the recruitment difficulties affecting certain academies. Teachers seconded to the AEFE cannot, however, be considered as an exploitable reserve of staff, capable of filling the deficits which are felt acutely in certain territories, without any further notice period. that the few months which run between the refusal of the renewal of secondment and the next school year. The loyalty and stability of these personnel contribute to the quality of teaching delivered in French establishments abroad and thereby to their influence. These reasons have led administrative and political authorities to reflect on the specificity of their status. A parliamentary report whose work is coordinated by Ms. Samantha Cazebonne is currently in progress. It aims to address the different possible development paths to respond to this challenge. The idea of ​​creating an academy specific to the management of personnel working or wishing to work abroad, which would retain recruitment methods making it possible to assign motivated teachers to our French establishments, is, according to the MP, the path the most interesting to secure and make these atypical routes attractive. Given the desire expressed collectively to open this project and find the most appropriate responses, she would like to know the timetable which will be adopted by the Government for the implementation of a long-awaited reform on this important subject.
