The mobilization of teachers and national education staff, at the call of the unions (FSU, CGTéduc’action, Snuipp, Snes), is struggling to find a second wind after the demonstration which brought together, Thursday, January 13, near 4000 people against the health protocol in schools and the lack of means.

They were a big hundred, Thursday, January 20 at the beginning of the afternoon, to have gathered in front of the Labor Exchange, place Saint-Sernin in Toulouse. Around, this time, the claims of the educational assistants (AED), the supervisors in college and high school who, too, wish to make their voices heard.

Like Romane, 25, AED at Lamartine College in Toulouse since the start of the school year in September. “We are contractual, never holders, we have few rights, we work a lot and we are very poorly paid. We are three full-time for 400 students. Since the health crisis is very complicated because you have to enforce the wearing of the mask, put gel on students who do not want it, we are constantly exposed to the virus which circulates enormously ”.

The Ibiza effect…

“The Toulouse rectorate benefits from exceptional resources [75 AED jusqu’au printemps, NDLR], but the difficulty is finding people to fill these positions, explains the academic secretary of the Snes-FSU Pierre Priouret. We had these resources last year, but we only used 40% of them”.

In the sights of the demonstrators, the Minister of National Education Jean-Michel Blanquer who drafted the health protocol in Ibiza. “It’s just one more confirmation of his total disconnection from the priorities and issues of the ministry,” says Pierre Priouret.

An opinion shared by the elected environmentalists of the opposition, Antoine Maurice and Isabelle Hardy, present alongside the demonstrators, who demand the dissemination of Mr. Blanquer.
