Question 14596 — unions

Summary

Mrs. Anne Sicard draws the attention of the Minister of National Education to the financing by public funds of union training courses politicized on the extreme left, organized by national education unions which publicly supported the Young Guard, a group dissolved by decree. Representative unions (CGT Éduc'Action, FSU and SUD Éducation) organize, as part of union training leave, internships whose content is explicitly political. These courses, documented on the union sites themselves, bear titles such as “Knowing, recognizing and combating fascism” (Verdun, October 2025), “The RN in power in the municipalities: how to resist? » (Nantes, January 2026) or “Decipher and combat the mechanisms of the extreme right” (Toulouse, June 2026). These training courses are part of the VISA union network (Vigilance and anti-fascist union initiatives), which claims 318 member structures. These same unions provided public support for the Young Guard. The CGT Éduc'Action du Rhône has even claimed “active collaboration” with this group since 2018. Finally, SUD Éducation, the FSU and several departmental unions have publicly signed texts of support against the dissolution procedure, some calling for the mobilization in favor of this group. The fact that organizations benefiting from public prerogatives and funding openly associate with a group dissolved for violence raises a question of principle that the Government cannot ignore. These internships are based on financing mechanisms entirely covered by the taxpayer: twelve days of annual union training leave with full maintenance of the treatment, replacement in primary education leading to a double cost for public finances and union discharges representing several hundred full-time equivalents in national education. More serious: SUD Éducation Lorraine recommends in writing to its members not to communicate the real title of the course to their hierarchy, advising them to only indicate “economic, social and union training session ". This instruction, published on the official website of the organization, deprives the administration of any control over the real nature of the training followed. She therefore asks him what measures he intends to take to verify that the content of the courses financed under union training leave actually complies with the purpose of this system; to put an end to the practice of concealing the real title of internships administration; and to draw the consequences, in terms of financing and union prerogatives, of the support provided by representative organizations to a group dissolved by the State.
