The president said he wanted to draw inspiration from the apprenticeship reform for this major reform, in particular by increasing the periods of work placements for professional high school students.

We are extremely worried about the perimeter of Carole Grandjean’s post, because this is the first time that professional high schools no longer come solely under National Education, regretted Sigrid Girardin, from the Snuep-FSU teacher’s union, to AFP. It is feared that the objective is to favor immediate employability to the detriment of balanced training.

For Vincent Magne, teacher of history and letters in vocational high school and member of the association of history and geography teachers (APHG), there is a fear that vocational training will be seen only as a way to train workers. , while it does not boil down to that.
