Catholic colleges in Loire-Atlantique: Catholic education cannot digest the drop in public funding. Each year, the Department supports 57 private colleges through a flat-rate contribution.
This year, this “day school package” amounts to an average of 562 euros per student, or 7 euros less than last year. The subject sparked numerous debates during a departmental session dedicated to the budget. This weekend, a petition entitled “Let’s mobilize for a fair and equitable educational future” collected 13,600 signatures.
