While he was to participate in a school trip to Spain in a few days, a pupil of a colleague located near Toulouse (Haute-Garonne) was excluded from this project because he did not have a vaccination pass, reported Toulouse NewsWednesday, April 13, 2022.
Indeed, to participate in this trip, the college management requires that teenagers, hosted by Spanish families, provide a complete vaccination pass or a Covid recovery certificate. However, according to the collective “Enfance et Libertés”, “they unilaterally rule out the possibility, however provided for by law, of simply justifying a negative RT-PCR test before departure, and thereby exert pressure on unvaccinated children to vaccinate”.
“The requirements are the same in all European countries”
One of the parents of the schoolboy tried to find a solution with the establishment, in vain. Supported by lawyers and associations, he finally had a bailiff deliver, on Tuesday April 5, an “interpellation summons” against the principal and the Spanish teacher, in order to demand the cancellation of this decision, indicates The Midi Dispatch. The two officials have eight days to comply with the law, failing which they would face criminal prosecution.
In its defence, the college management explained that it was the local structure, responsible for organizing the reception of the students, which had required a complete vaccination schedule for all participants. “The organization has not changed its family reception conditions and also specifies that the requirements are the same in all European countries. All participants, students and accompanying persons, are therefore obliged to submit to it.pleads the direction of the college withToulouse News.
