VIDEO – Minister of Education, interviewed Tuesday on France Inter, plans to review by the spring of the current zones A, B and C in order to harmonize the current map with one born territorial reform.
The reform will be presented “in the spring,” promises Najat Vallaud-Belkacem. The Minister of Education announced Tuesday morning on France Inter its willingness to change the school calendar coming years. “I lead a reflection that is wider than the date of return to school, because we will have to manage the consequences of such territorial reform that will change school vacation areas,” said the minister. The Rue de Grenelle announced the review schedule last week. Najat Vallaud-Belkacem has yet to meet with various partners: unions, parents, local authorities, tourism stakeholders … Here are some of the paths considered:
• An overhaul of historical Areas A, B and C
Since the mid 1960s, thirty academies that include France are divided between two, then three areas for winter and spring holidays . Then it is to avoid traffic jams on the roads and congestion of tourist destinations. But the recent territorial reform has disturbed this legacy. Both cards do not match. “The fact that we have a territorial reform which halves the number of regions, it will put in the same region of the territories formerly owned holiday areas, such as Aquitaine, Poitou-Charentes, a some point we will have to coordinate all that, “detailed the Minister on France Inter.
• The spring
The other problem Easter holidays and spring. School calendar, as currently conceived, broke them on May. But a problem was raised in October by Dominique Marcel, CEO of Compagnie des Alpes. “If, as has been done in recent years, spring break is shifted in May, is for us 30,000 fewer jobs (for mountain professionals over a year, Ed), it was calculated “he felt on BFM Business. “It made us lose 3% of revenue in recent years.” The minister promised to study the issue.
• Systematic back to September 1
According to the SE-Unsa union, other hypotheses have been on the table: a comeback students who “would systematically as of September 1″ or a bridge Ascension “definitely part of the calendar” avoiding “a great diversity of rectories decisions” following the academies. Currently the 2015-2016 school calendar, published in the Official Journal, provides a prérentrée teachers Friday, August 28 and day of class Monday, August 31. If modified, the union asked the Ministry to do it “sufficient time for teachers, families and all those affected by the school calendar can take ahead their provisions.”
