STORY - Launched in 2017, it will be compulsory for all 6th graders from the start of the next school year.


In a classroom overlooking the Saint-Martin canal, seven students from the REP college in La Grange-aux-Belles (Paris 10th) work on their homework, under the watchful eye of Erwan Guérin, a young associate professor of mathematics.

While their classmates from 3 A have left the establishment and are scattering on Quai de Jemmapes, Otmane, Enzo and Layali are doing English vocabulary exercises and physics-chemistry revisions for their white certificate.

All three have been enrolled since grade 5 in “homework done”, a time of accompanied study intended for middle school students.
