Question 21461 — secondary education

Summary

Ms. Sophie Auconie questions the Minister of National Education and Youth regarding the implementation of the baccalaureate reform. While the Ministry of National Education estimates the rate of secondary school teachers (including middle and high schools) on strike for the supervision of the inaugural baccalaureate exams at 5.40%, in Indre-et-Loire, Monday June 17, 2019, 50% of teachers at the Jean Monnet high school in Joué Lès-Tours were missing. Faced with a grotesque situation and knowing the start of the school year is coming, teachers are intensifying their mobilization against the Blanquer reform of the 2021 baccalaureate. In order to modernize the French education system, the reform completely disrupts its examination procedures. Continuous assessment becomes decisive in obtaining the baccalaureate. Students are no longer divided into series (ES, S and L) but must choose their specialties among around ten possibilities and their options among 5 other proposals. These lessons complete a general common core. In total, around fifty combinations are possible. In a context of reduction in resources allocated to education (reduction in numbers and hours of lessons taught), this logically poses a technical problem for schools having to compose each person's menus taking into account ministry directives (36 students per class and 15 minimum for specialty classes). While the law aims to satisfy each student, this inconsistency risks disappointing more than the minority although announced. At Grandmont high school in Tours, in Indre-et-Loire, more than 25% of students did not obtain the wishes they had expressed. Without an impact study and in a context of reduction in resources allocated to establishments schools, he asks him how he intends to continue implementing the reform without losing sight of the announced objective: to provide quality education adapted to all and allowing better integration of students into higher education.
