Question 11707 — nursery and primary education

Summary

Mr. Pouria Amirshahi draws the attention of the Minister of National Education to the future of the exceptional regime relating to discharges from which Parisian school directors benefit. This regime, in existence since 1982 thanks to an agreement between the City of Paris and the Ministry of National Education, allows directors of Parisian schools to obtain, in derogation from Article L. 411-2 of the Education Code, a discharge complete when the school contains more than five classes. During the winter of 2025, the minister's predecessors, Ms. Genetet and Ms. Borne, expressed their desire to put an end to this exceptional regime. However, this system is essential for project management and the management of Parisian establishments, whose specificities (high urban density, reinforced security issues, diversity of profiles, audiences with specific needs) are at the origin of expanded responsibilities. The exceptional regime also allows directors to devote more time to helping their colleagues in the implementation of their educational project. Finally, it limits the turnover of directors and teachers, providing the stability necessary for good reception conditions for students. Furthermore, this system makes it possible to strengthen the attractiveness of Parisian public schools in the face of private schools whose directors benefit from discharges taken into account by the diocese. Putting an end to it would weaken Parisian public schools and reinforce the inequalities between private and public education. Following the significant mobilization of school principals, teachers, the FCPE and a large number of Parisian elected officials, the Minister's predecessor, Ms. Élisabeth Borne, announced on March 18, 2025 a moratorium on the elimination of this exceptional regime for the year 2025-2026. In addition, Mr. Patrick Bloche, first deputy of the city of Paris, indicated that the City of Paris was ready to finance the differential between the common law regime and the exceptional regime, as it did until 2019 within the framework of the agreement. This fall, the services of the City of Paris and the ministerial services met to discuss maintaining the exceptional regime. It is essential that this maintenance takes place before the end of 2025. Indeed, the preparation of the school map for the start of the 2026 school year requires that the number of positions in Paris be evaluated by then. Thus, the MP would like to know if he intends to sign very soon a new agreement securing the special discharge from which Parisian school directors benefit. so that it is not threatened for the start of the 2026 school year.
