Two hours of school time will be normalized between Thursday November 9 and Wednesday November 15, the ministry announced on Tuesday.
A questionnaire to free up speech and better quantify the extent of the phenomenon. As revealed by Elisabeth Borne and Gabriel Attal at the end of September, during the presentation of the interministerial plan to combat bullying at school, a self-assessment grid will be distributed at the start of the school year to all students from CE2 onwards. “Two hours of school time will be reserved for this purpose, between Thursday November 9 and Wednesday November 15,” the ministry said on Tuesday, October 24.
“This standardized time, the practical organization of which is the initiative of each school, middle school and high school, will be an opportunity to focus on the prevention and detection of harassment situations, the first condition for protecting student victims. “, writes the ministry in a press release. The completion of this self-assessment grid will be supervised primarily by the head teacher in secondary education. Non-nominative, it aims to assess whether students are likely to be victims of school harassment, but also to feed a statistical analysis which will be carried out by the National Education Statistical Service (Depp).
Around thirty questions in primary school
The grid, which takes the form of three questionnaires, adapted to each level (CE2 to CM2, middle school and high school), is already available on the Eduscol website. It contains, each time, four main groups of questions. In elementary school, for example, schoolchildren will have to answer 33 questions, distributed as follows: “Before going to school”, “At school”, “On the internet or on screens” And “How do you feel ?”. In middle and high school, the list is slightly longer, with 44 questions and themes similar to those in elementary school.
For example, middle school students are asked if they have “fear of going to college because of one or more students”if they have “lied to stay at (them)“, if they have “been pushed aside in the playground by one or more students”if they eat “alone in the canteen”or if students have them “voluntarily pushed”. They are also asked if they received “insulting or threatening messages” on the internet or social networks, if “photos or messages are circulating” on them without their consent and if they have “Hard to s‘to sleep’ because of what they experience at college.
