As part of the generalization of the universal national service, the government plans to offer an internship to high school students from the start of the school year in September. For the deputy La France insoumise, Alexis Corbière, young people especially need “to be more in the school establishment”.
“It is out of the question to remove twelve days of school for our children, on the contrary we must add more”declares Alexis Corbière, Friday May 19 on franceinfo, while the government is considering setting up a twelve-day course on school time for second-year students, as part of the generalization of universal national service (SNU).

“Woe to those who would like to engage in such a policy, we will oppose it”warns the deputy La France insoumise, who denounces “a petaudière”.
Students “need on the contrary to be better trained, to have more teachers, to be more in the school establishment”, according to the elected official of Seine-Saint-Denis. He also underlines that this project contradicts the original promise of the UNS: mixing and social diversity. If it materializes, this stay of cohesion will be “in small local centers where the same people from the same neighborhoods will meet”.

For Alexis Corbière, a former vocational high school teacher, the government’s project is a “stupid gadget” Who “aims in a way to say: there are young people, you have to put the uniform on their backs and teach them the values of the Republic, with a slightly military side”. If this course sees the light of day, the uniform will indeed be required. As to “Republic values”it’s here “mission of the public school” of the “learn” students.
