USPA NEWS -
Nicolas Sarkozy gave an interview with JDD, in which he frontally attacked the proposed rreform colleges" (Middle Schools). In the Figaro responds : "There would be so many things to say about this reform, perhaps the most detestable of the long list of unnecessary reforms we have known for 3 years.
Nicolas Sarkozy is therefore took a position alongside Bruno Lemaire, who was the one who launched the attack by organizing a petition letter signed by MPs sent to the head of state, against the project of reform.

BRUNO LEMAIRE DEFENDS "MERIT", VERSUS NAJAT VALLAUD BELKACEM CLAIMS FOR "EGALITARIANISM"--------------------------------------------------------------------------Bruno Lemaire has a solid political career for his young age (46 years) and one understands its commitment to the republican school and its values of education, which involves learning of Latin and Greek. His family background (Mother headmistress) also explains his strong reactions to the disruption caused by this reform of Middle Schools. He explained that the renunciation of language learning Latin, German wants to get everyone on the same level: egalitarianism "and" I don't want that one waives the requirement of knowledge ". According to him, the recess the requirement is synonymous with excellence recess and therefore the merit.
Najat Vallaud-Belkacem said to be "in the republican elitism" which "gives each student the conditions and keys to success to allow only the effort and merit then distinguish". Instead, she is "against the dynastic elitism", which "reproduces benefits still offering the same selective channels, bypass classes and offers choice" they are the only ones to benefit, because "they know the codes. "
ETHNIC STATISTICS ARE FNOT ALLOWED DESPITE THE HIGH INEQUALITIES REPORTED BY OECD---------------------------------------------Nevertheless, according to the OECD, social inequalities are highest in France in access to education and culture in France (Source OECD http://www.oecd.org/pisa/keyfindings/ pisa-2012-results.htm). On the other hand, the clientelism policy in France appears from the start when some students from disadvantaged backgrounds are oriented towards short studies and more towards apprenticeship training and professionalism. This selection is made, "naturally" according to zones or regions or live by students and lack of funding but also of repressed talents and brakes to mastering the French language see article on illiteracy. Indeed whatever the standardization of a more or less with the program "Latin" or "more mathematics" in no case will erase the reality of geographical inequalities: A young student living in the 5th, 6th, 7th or 16th exclusive districts of Paris more likely to access a large and prestigious school curriculum than from a Parisian suburb (91, 92, 93, 94, 95). Ditto regarding the big cities versus ruralities. Inequalities also combine social and ethnic and religious backgrounds, which accentuate the gap between those "privileged" and those "left on the side." (See article on ethnic and religious statistics Mesnard mayor National Front in Beziers "Robert Mesnard appeals to MPs about ethnic statistics" http://www.liberation.fr/societe/2015/05/11/statistiques-ethniques-robert-menard-en-appelle-aux-deputes_1306628, May 11 205). This Moorish caused a great controversy about a "file of pupils whose origins are foreign" He retorted "That 2/3 of the students are from minority groups in the school classes of Béziers." Beziers is one of the poorest cities of France in the region of Herault.`
In fact, one of the biggest concerns would be to fight against illiteracy in France (see article). Indeed, the high rate of illiteracy (General rate of 40% in France, 11% in France and 13% in Ile de France) and particularly among some students, future students! This is all the more serious because some universities have set up the modules Spelling and remedial mastery of the French language..----------------------------------------------- Source :http://illettrisme.canope-creteil.fr/article/7044.----------------
------------------------------------France is ranked 25th in an international ranking by PISA (fo International Student Assessment Program) of the OECD, on social inequalities in school in France. Source http://www.oecd.org/pisa/keyfindings/pisa-2012-results.htm
The solution is therefore elsewhere than minor changes of the program of "Reform of middle school" as real change-like, but with disturbing consequences, certainly for the already fragile existing state of school context of today, in France.
