Question 22898 — overseas

Summary

Ms. Manuéla Kéclard-Mondésir alerts the Minister of National Education and Youth to the catastrophic situation of learning to read in the Martinique academy. The latest results published in August 2019 by the Department of Evaluation, Foresight and Performance (DEPP) indicate that 34% of young people have reading difficulties, compared to a national average of 15.5%. Worse, only 52.4% of young people who participated in the Defense and Citizenship Day (JDC) in 2018 are effective readers, that is to say, understanding their reading, when the national average is close to 80%. Nearly half of the students arrive in sixth form not knowing how to read, hence the difficulty for the teaching teams of the colleges to convey their lessons, the use of reading being essential to the learning of any other subject. This chronic deficit in the control of reading is a contributing element to many negative situations, including dropping out of school, classroom behavior problems, school violence, among others. She therefore urgently asks him if it would not be wise to put in place an immediate and large-scale “READING +” action plan (from kindergarten to fifth grade) for a significant upgrade in reading mastery. for the benefit of all students affected by this problem.
