In 2014, the National Education gave 16 definitive dismissals of teachers, who had just been convicted of pedophile acts or for possession of child pornography images, said yesterday Najat Vallaud-Belkacem, after the revocation of a school principal in Villefontaine near Lyon, and the suspension of two other teachers, in Moselle and near Rennes.
It should be “be careful not to cast aspersions on all staff” , she added, noting that the Ministry of Education has about one million civil servants, including 840,000 teachers.
A meeting between attorneys general and presidents, organized under the auspices of the Ministers of Justice and Education, will take place next week, said the minister.
This meeting aims to recall the obligation to Justice Services to report to those of any conviction Education a member of the National Education for acts of pedophilia or child pornography.
This duty of information transmission is underlined in a circular from the Ministry of Justice in November 2001, with the most signatures recent date of 11 March. But it is not always enforced, as demonstrated affairs Villefontaine (Isère) and Rennes.
Criminal records officials
“The circular of 2001 so for these acts of 2005, 2006, 2008, should have been applied (…) We need to know why this circular was not performed on these facts” said Minister of Justice, Christiane Taubira. “Even if the point of view of the distribution of legislative matters and regulatory issues, this transmission is not under the law, if it is necessary we will put into law so as to force all prosecutors to effect this transmission to all authorities and, of course, primarily for the National Education is in charge of children and adolescents “, she added.
Criminal Records officials are examined in hiring, but rarely during their career. The meeting next week is therefore wonder about a possible “systematization” or “regularity” in this process to educational staff, said Najat Vallaud-Belkacem.
