Rased: Inspectors of Education oppose reform

In an open letter to Xavier Darcos, the union of the inspection of Education is against reform Rased announced by the minister. They require a concerted reflection with it before any changes in these networks of expertise to aid students. After teachers' unions, it is the turn of the inspectors of Education (NEI) to oppose the reform Networks specialized assistance to students in difficulty (Rased). What Rased? Networks of specialized aid to students in difficulty (Rased) have to provide special aid to students into regular classes in primary schools, at the request of teachers in those grades in these classes or outside this classes. They include teachers responsible for teaching aids dominant, the "masters E" (learning difficulties), teachers specialized aid mainly rehabilitation, "masters G" (difficulty adjusting to school), and school psychologists. In a rather unexpected letter addressed to Xavier Darcos October 16, the union disputes the reform Rased. It plans to settle 3000 posts of these masters specializing in academic difficulty (see box) in schools in difficulty. These de facto personal replace 3,000 teachers to retire and will be in a class. "We are worried" For NEI, the redeployment of posts threatens the effectiveness of Rased in the fight against the difficulties school: "A weakening of these teams would be a grave harm to students in great difficulty," they write. This reallocation is problematic for the union because the specialist teacher "exercise all of his service in schools", a modus operandi that can not be imposed for the NEI, at the risk of "weakening the very idea of piloting proximity ". For the union, is "to the inspector of the district, after consultation with the teaching teams" to make that choice. Inspectors of Education Xavier Darcos request to postpone "the measure announced and open a dialogue enlarged to enhance the impact of personal Rased on students.
