Education

I. LE CONSTAT

The Observation: A National “Machine” is running out of steam

National Education, the historic pillar of the Republic, is going through an unprecedented crisis of confidence. Far from being a simple "discomfort", it is a documented rupture between a massive central administration, its agents and the students it is responsible for training.

The observation is therefore that of a system which spends enormously for declining results, while exhausting its own agents. The Jacobin model, which enabled the literacy of the Nation, has become a rigid machine which no longer responds to the challenges of the 21st century.

II. LA SOLUTION {R3}

The Federal Solution: The School of Trust and Proximity

The regionalization of education is the key to freeing energies and recreating the bond of trust.

A “Regional Ministry of Education”:
  • Each Region would have full jurisdiction over educational policy. This regional ministry would manage the recruitment, careers and training of teachers, offering them a more stable working environment, closer contacts and a real capacity to influence educational orientations.
  • Autonomy of establishments: School, middle and high school directors would be entrusted with real educational and budgetary autonomy to adapt the establishment project to the specific needs of their students.
  • Rooted Programs: School programs would integrate the teaching of the history, geography and culture of the Region, as well as regional languages. This rooting is the best way to give children the keys to understanding the world and to open up to other cultures.
  • The Role of the Federal State: Guarantee Unity and Level. The Federation would no longer be manager, but guarantor of the unity of the Republic. It would set the "Republican Base of Skills", that is to say all the fundamental knowledge and skills (reading, writing, counting, reasoning, respecting the values ​​of the Republic, etc.) that every child must master at the end of each major cycle: at the end of Kindergarten, at the end of Primary, at the end of Middle School, at the end of High School

The Federal State would also guarantee the national value of major diplomas (Brevet, Baccalauréat) through standardized assessments, thus ensuring equality of opportunity and mobility of students throughout the territory.
