This is the culmination of one year of research. In January 2021, the National Secular Action Committee (CNAL), Federation of five organizations involved in the field of education, asked each Academy inspection to provide the “last” visitor report made in “each” Private establishment outside contract falling within its perimeter. Way of focusing, beyond the small minority of Muslim establishments used to the spotlight, on the overall of these 1,800 structures which, by virtue of the recognized freedom of teaching, can welcome an audience school. At the expense of families, without public subsidies, and without other obligation than to transmit to children the same luggage and skills – the “common base” – that the one guaranteed to any young at the end of its compulsory schooling (16 years) .

Labor survey work: all academy inspections, all institutions did not play the game. “In the event of a negative response or non-response, we have systematically seized the CADA [Access Committee Administrative documents], explains Rémy-Charles Sirvent, Secretary General of the CNAL and National Secretary of the SE-UNSA, and then revived the requests, resides the inspections … “Some reports are still waiting for transmission.

It is on the basis of 164 inspection reports thus gathered – a number that reveals, in hollow, the difficulty of making transparency – that the National Secular Action Committee communicated, Wednesday, March 9, its observations. Unpublished synthesis, without a doubt: it gives reading integers of reports that are not intended to be published. Non-exhaustive synthesis, will react the defenders of the free school choice. In fact, the disclosed extracts highlight what the investigators came to seek: “Important drifts, they write, so much on the conditions of schooling of children and adolescents and on teaching content and their implementation Pedagogical work “.

” Closure on the world “

“Only three or four reports are very good, advance Sophie Venetitay, also affiliated with SE-UNSA, who participated in the investigation. There is a” soft belly “of establishments for which the reports are not Neither good nor bad. But more than half alert on serious dysfunctions. “

The trained flollège is overwhelming. It is, in such traditionalist Catholic establishments, the use of very obsolete textbooks – or even the total absence of manuals – which is put forward. Often also, the mixture between faith and history – when one does not replace the other. And, recurrently, the “closure on the world” or “on society”.
