Question 14673 — teaching

Summary

Mr. Thierry Frappé alerts the Minister of National Education to the consequences of the expected demographic decline in the French school system. According to projections from the statistical service of the Ministry of National Education, France will have 1.7 million fewer students by 2035, a drop of 14%. This reduction, which began several years ago, will concern all levels of education and constitutes a unprecedented upheaval for the organization of the education system. This development also affects Pas-de-Calais, where the drop in school enrollment is already leading to questions about the maintenance of classes, teaching positions and, more broadly, local educational offerings. In this context, the announced elimination of 4,000 teaching positions at the start of the 2026 school year raises serious concerns, even though this Demographic change could be used to improve teaching conditions, in particular by reducing class size and better support for students, particularly those in difficulty or with disabilities. Furthermore, this situation gives rise to growing tensions between public and private education under contract, in a context of increased competition for maintaining staff numbers and territorial establishments. In this context, he asks him what strategy he intends to implement to adapt the education system to this demographic decline. He also wishes to know how the Government intends to reconcile this development with the improvement of teaching conditions, the strengthening of student supervision and the maintenance of a balanced educational offer throughout the territory.
