Parents of students have lodged a complaint against the State in the face of the non-replacement of absent teachers, to force the Ministry of Education to find solutions to the problem.
Students desperately seek teachers. For several months, actions have been multiplying throughout France against non-replaced absences. Faced with the inaction of the National Education, the parents filed a complaint against the State. These collective actions aim to compel the Government to find solutions.
