The list of openings and closures was made official by the Departmental Council of National Education. Of the 63 class closures that had been considered: 56 were maintained and 7 were abandoned.
“Despite some class closure measures being lifted, the situation in the department will be degraded at the next school year,” estimates Pierre Ripart, one of the departmental secretaries. The demographic decline will not benefit schools, numbers will still be as high, inclusion will still been as difficult to achieve, situations of suffering at work will still not be alleviated.
