“Absent teachers who are not replaced are still a reality. We now know that there are around 1,000 advertisements on France Travail to find teachers on the eve of the start of the school year.”says Grégoire Ensel, vice-president of the FCPE on France Bleu Bourgogne on Friday August 30, as students prepare to return to school.
The parents’ association asks the next government to organize “immediately” a “major national consultation”, “a citizens’ convention to build the societal project” what is school.
“When school is disrupted, the whole of society is disrupted.”

The fact that the teaching profession no longer attracts people is “worrying” because “Public schools are the pillars of our country, they are what bring life to the hearts of villages, neighborhoods and cities.”adds Grégoire Ensel. According to him, teachers are faced with “a search for meaning in their work” and “increasingly difficult working conditions”. “Their working conditions are the same as the conditions in which our children go to school every day.”deplores the vice-president of the FCPE.
“The minister herself said it 48 years ago hours, that the means were not up to the needs. And we have been saying this for years, we see it on the ground”continues Grégoire Ensel, recalling that his association will remain “vigilante” for this new school year. He calls for “to concert“, “build” And “dialogue”. “This is what is at stake today, if we do not want the system to collapse.”he concluded.
