The decision caused a stir within the local education community. Tuesday March 26, staff from the Jean-Jaurès high school in Montreuil (Seine-Saint-Denis) and the federation of parents' councils (FCPE) each published a press release to denounce the temporary exclusion of "fifteen students" accused of having participated in a blockade of the establishment as part of the mobilization for an emergency plan for education in Seine-Saint-Denis. For several weeks, the teaching unions and FCPE 93 have been demonstrating to obtain, in particular, the creation of 5,200 teaching positions in the department.
According to Jean-Jaurès' educational team, the high school students were excluded for five days. “The students of the Jean-Jaurès high school wanted to mobilize (…) to obtain means for better learning,” she wrote in her press release. She condemns “these temporary and expeditious exclusions which target students who become the scapegoats of a collective mobilization”.
