Question 1308 — secondary education

Summary

Ms. Clémentine Autain questions the Minister of National Education about the budgetary resources allocated to high schools in the department of Seine-Saint-Denis for the start of the 2017 school year. Since the beginning of September 2017, several high schools in Seine-Saint-Denis have expressed their difficulties in carrying out their mission of educating and supporting students in their school curriculum. The supervisory teams of these establishments highlight the lack human and material resources to enable optimal reception of students and ensure them decent study conditions. Of the 465 public high schools in Île-de-France, 10% are overstaffed in terms of number of students. The number of positions allocated to teachers, principal education advisors, education assistants and school doctors cannot cope with the increase in the number of students. It leads to the multiplication of classes overloaded, which we know makes school learning more difficult. In Seine-Saint-Denis, the student supervision rate is particularly low, since around 300 full-time equivalents would be needed in high schools to return to the 2012 situation. Very concretely, at the Jean Rostand high school in Villepinte, a part-time supervisor position was eliminated, even though the high school welcomed 300 additional high school students over the last 5 years. This situation is repeated in many high schools in Seine-Saint-Denis, a logical result of the demographic boom of the 2000s. At the same time, the recent announcement of the elimination of subsidized jobs, including 30,000 in Seine-Saint-Denis, contributes to the concern of the high school supervisory teams who fear not being able to ensure the normal functioning of their establishment. The distribution of classes, the organization timetables and student monitoring are all factors of academic success for high school students. Added to these budgetary difficulties is the social and economic reality of the region, whose students often experience multiple precariousness. A policy of perpetuating the resources dedicated to high schools in Seine-Saint-Denis cannot ignore the question of the priority education map. The ZEP reform carried out in 2014 stopped at primary and middle schools, calling into question the continuity and coherence of educational establishments from kindergarten to baccalaureate. This return to school once again shows the urgency of the situation within the high schools of Seine-Saint-Denis. She asks him for details on the means that can be implemented quickly, to allow the normal functioning of these high schools and thus ensure territorial equality between the Seine-Saint-Denis and other departments.
