How the middle school level groups will be set up at the start of the 2024 school year ?

In an interview grantedé to Le Monde, the Minister of National Education announced that the heads of establishments will themselves be responsible for setting up times for “need groups”, but also for whole class times ;D.

Three months after the announcement with great fanfare by Gabriel Attal, then still Minister of National Education, to put in place & quot;level groups" at college in French and mathematics, it's time to get back on track! In the columns of Monde, this Thursday March 7, the new minister, Nicole Belloubet, is now talking about introducing a some flexibility " in this device which had given rise to the ire of teaching unions last December.

The latter, including Unsa – &Education, denounced in particular the risk of "social sorting of &students" as well as the subsequent impact of the measures announced, in terms of staff working conditions, overstaffing…" If Nicole Belloubet's comments were very well received by the unions this Thursday, & what to expect concretely when the measure must be implemented next September ?

From now on, he is already not there. no longer a question of "level groups", but of "need or skills groups", according to the terms used by Nicole Belloubet in her interview at World. "We are going to introduce a certain flexibility for college principals", announced in particular" the minister, specifying that it will be up to the head of the establishment to see to it. What times in the year should we bring the students together as a whole class, in order to re-examine the composition of the groups in these two subjects? 'fundamental reres'. In summary, no more strict framework aimed at to apply this system, each establishment will be able to do so at its own discretion. its sauce and, above all, whole class moments will be planned, which was not foreseen in Gabriel Attal's initial project and which particularly satisfies the unions.
