Change in the 6th grade timetable… A subject disappears!
It’s now official, technology disappears in freshman year of college ! The Ministry of Education revealed this Wednesday, January 11, the details of the setting up the support hour in maths or French for 6th graders. And the ax fell, so it will be at the expense of technology, as explained in the newspaper The world. “There will be no increase in the number of class hours in 6e“, thus explained the general direction of school education (DGESCO) on a daily basis. No drastic change for students whose schedule will therefore remain at 26 hours a week, since the support or deepening slot will be done partly on technology time, specifies AFP. As pointed out by the Huffington Post, 6th graders have a time slot of 4 hours per week which is divided between three subjects: SVT, technology and physics-chemistry. And for this start of the 2023 school year, so the technology will come out of this module according to terms that will be specified in future texts, announcement The world.
