Question 15384 — agricultural education

Summary

Mr. Fabrice Barusseau draws the attention of the Minister of Agriculture, Agri-Food and Food Sovereignty to the particularly worrying situation of school assistants (AVS) working in private agricultural education and rural family homes (MFR). While those accompanying students with disabilities (AESH) in national education and public agricultural education benefit from identified statutory framework, private agricultural education personnel remain maintained in a particularly precarious, opaque and derogatory AVS status, despite the exercise of strictly comparable missions. However, a memo from the Ministry of Agriculture governing the status of AESH in agricultural education has existed since 2019. In fact, the latter does not seem to be fully applied in establishments. private and MFRs. The professionals concerned thus remain excluded from numerous rights recognized by the AESH. The national survey conducted by trade union organizations highlights a particularly alarming situation. More than 62% of the AVS surveyed work under a fixed-term contract, while only 36.4% have a permanent contract. More than half say that their seniority is not taken into account during contract renewals. The study also reveals that 44.1% of professionals carry out unaccounted for or paid tasks and that 26.2% work unpaid overtime. Furthermore, remuneration appears particularly low: 55% of the professionals concerned declare that they are paid the minimum wage or close to it, while an identical proportion considers this remuneration insufficient in relation to the missions carried out. The question of the training also raises serious concerns, since 86% of the AVS surveyed indicate that they have not benefited from any training prior to taking up their position. This precariousness has direct consequences on the quality of support for students with disabilities, in a context where the need for educational inclusion continues to grow. Instability of contracts, lack of training and lack of recognition institutional structure lastingly weakens the continuity and quality of the support offered to the students concerned. Also, he asks what measures the Government intends to take in order to guarantee the effective application of the texts relating to the status of AESH in all private agricultural education establishments and MFRs, to put an end to the inequalities of treatment existing with the AESH of national education and public agricultural education and finally secure the professional career paths of AVS and AESH essential for educational inclusion.
