Images that are worth the detour! On Wednesday April 21, 2021, the Minister of National Education Jean-Michel Blanquer and Sarah El Haïry, Secretary of State in charge of youth and engagement, went to the Joséphine Baker school in Livry-Gargan in the Seine -St Denis. An establishment which welcomes children from the priority public during school holidays. The opportunity for the ex-husband of Sophie de Puybaudet to question his interlocutors on the reception conditions in the midst of a pandemic period but also to exchange with the students present in the courtyard of the establishment. An exchange that gave birth to a video that has been viewed today more than 300,000 times. And for good reason, the companion of Anna Cabana let himself be tempted by a small game of hopscotch and a battle of Chifoumi. Images that have already been around social networks!
“What better way to do than waste teachers ‘and students’ time?”
On the thirty-second video posted on the Twitter account of CNews in the afternoon, Jean-Michel Blanquer sets off on an obstacle course paved with hoops, the whole thing on foot. If the fifty-six-year-old minister thought he had done his good deed to make his young audience smile, it is not! The student responsible for the game offers him a new test: the Chifoumi. A succession of stone-sheet-paper-scissors which led the Minister of National Education … to lose his duel. It is all the same under the applause of the educators present on the spot that Jean-Michel Blanquer will finish his race at the back of the schoolyard.
On social networks, the comments were not long in coming: “This sequence is absolutely ridiculous”, “It’s pathetic to engage in this kind of communication”, “I can’t take it anymore watching him clown”, “What better way to do than waste teachers ‘and students’ time?”, can we read on Twitter. Inquisitive comments nuanced by those of several Internet users amused by this sequence: “The little one will come home and brag about having beaten the minister!”, “It’s nice to see! A little humanity”, “Nice minister!”, “It’s cute anyway!” A little good humor doesn’t hurt …
