A student from Jéhan-de-Chelles high school slapped her principal on Monday morning, we learned from the rectorate. The facts took place during a mobilization of students, with teachers and parents, against the common tests of continuous assessment, called E3C in the jargon of National Education.
“A complaint has been filed,” said Daniel Auverlot, the rector of the Académie de Créteil on which Seine-et-Marne depends. The student will go to the disciplinary council. The tests were able to be held but they started an hour late. ”
Since last Monday, more or less followed actions are held almost every morning in high schools where E3C must be held. Some have even been postponed, notably at the Samuel-Beckett high school in La Ferté-sous-Jouarre, René-Descartes in Champs-sur-Marne or Henri-Moissan in Meaux.
“A peaceful rally”, according to the local FCPE
For her part, Céline de Kerpel, local representative of the FCPE, member of the collective “Chelles anger” and witness to the scene, evokes “a peaceful gathering, with about 150 students and parents”. According to her, the principal threatened the high school students participating in the blockade to “have them all go to disciplinary council”.
The tone would be raised and he would then “violently tore off the arm of the schoolgirl who was holding the gate of the main entrance of the establishment saying to him:” Get out and shut up! “Continues the representative of parents of students.
This is where this 16-year-old student, who first attended school, would have slapped the head teacher. “The schoolgirl slapped him reflexively because she hurt,” adds Céline de Kerpel and at least one other witness to the scene.
The police from the Chelles police station received the headmaster’s complaint. According to them, there is no overflow to report even if twenty students were more reassembled than the others. A mobile security team from the academy intervened to mediate with the blocking high school students.
