Contract teachers are an essential crutch for the proper functioning of the public education service. Each year, many contract workers are hired to make up for the shortage of tenured teachers.
Manuela* has become a contract Spanish teacher at the Gisèle-Halimi college in Aubervilliers. The young woman failed to renew her residence permit with the Seine-Saint-Denis prefecture on February 2. Teachers from the establishment organized a mobilization on Thursday to support their contractual colleague of Peruvian nationality.
