Teachers: “The account is not there” according to Sophie Lamant, departmental councilor and 1st deputy mayor of Balma

For Sophie Lamant, departmental councilor and 1st deputy mayor of Balma in charge of school affairs, the account is not there. “The circular of July 10, 2020 published in the Official Journal and sent to academic staff announced the creation of 1,688 additional posts in the first degree and the creation of 8,000 additional posts of AESH (Accompanying students with disabilities, Editor’s note) “, recalls the elected in a letter addressed to Jean-Michel Blanquer, Minister of Education.

According to Sophie Lamant, the problem remains “the difference that remains between the announcements of the Ministry of National Education and the reality of our territories”. And to clarify: “1st degree education still encounters a lack of human and financial resources, a phenomenon exacerbated by the crisis situation that we have been experiencing for a year now”. Consequence: “It is common not to be able to welcome children in their classes when their teachers are absent”. The elected therefore proposes to create a reserve of retired school teachers, because “National Education is today the only body of state not to have reserve solutions”.

Inclusive school?

Another difficulty: recruiting contract workers. System open to people with a bac +3 level of studies in order to guarantee the continuity of courses in the event of absence of teachers, “these candidates receive no response or job offer”, she deplores (read below below). Also, “the candidates turn away from the National Education to address to private companies of school support”. Under these conditions, “it appears necessary to improve and simplify the recruitment of contract workers”. Finally, Sophie Lamant regrets the lack of school life support workers (AVS) dedicated to children with special educational needs, particularly those suffering from disabilities, which “undermines the policy of inclusion in schools and disturbingly unbalances the entire population. republican education system “. Sophie Lamant therefore invites the Minister to “unblock the necessary means as quickly as possible to compensate for these staff shortages”.
