Question 12079 — exams, competitions and diplomas

Summary

Ms. Marianne Maximi draws the attention of the Minister of National Education to the establishment of a written test exemption procedure for students of the new school teaching license which is due to open in September 2026 and the consequences for equal access to the competition and to the status of school teacher. In the documents presenting the reform published by the ministry, it is planned that students with validated, without compensation, all of the ECTS credits for the three years of LPE can be exempted from the written competition tests. This new method raises many questions about its effects on equal access to competitive examinations and on the organization of university courses. This procedure raises many questions about the consequences it could have on the current situation of the profession. First of all, the unfairness of candidates in the competition, with currently planned, according to ministry documents, 5,652 places in LPE in 2026. With regard to the 18,000 candidates in 2025, it is therefore a question of limiting access to the competition to two thirds of candidates, who will not be able to benefit from this procedure. Such a system risks creating an early selection, upon entry into the license via Parcoursup, based on the results obtained in high school and not on an equivalent national assessment for all. This development questions the conformity of the reform with the constitutional principle of equal access to public jobs. On the other hand, the creation of a single and privileged route to access the competitive examination could weaken other university courses historically linked to preparation for school teaching, particularly those relating to educational sciences, without that universities have, at this stage, guarantees or additional means to adapt their training offer. Finally, the nationalization of the competition combined with the exemption from written tests raises important territorial questions. LPE students benefiting from this exemption will be able to take the CRPE in any academy, which risks accentuating the imbalances between deficit territories and attractive. For universities and INSPÉs, this new organization could complicate the maintenance of a training offer in offshore sites. For example, in the Clermont-Ferrand academy, the planned capacity of 80 places in LPE at the start of the 2026 school year would no longer make it possible to guarantee a training offer in all sites outside Clermont-Ferrand. In view of these elements, she wishes to know the measures that the Government intends to take to guarantee equal treatment between all candidates for the school teacher competition; support universities and INSPÉs in order to preserve the diversity and balance of existing training and avoid an increase in territorial inequalities.
