In schools
It is the cornerstone of a plan that contains dozens of entries, in fields as diverse as transport, social assistance, public facilities or markets: the reopening of nursery and elementary schools to students is brain teaser.
From Monday, teachers and municipal staff will be on the job in schools for a “pre-entry”, with a view to welcoming the first pupils on Thursday 14 May. “All of the municipal agents who can take over, Atsem [agents territoriaux spécialisés des écoles maternelles], catering and maintenance staff, was trained on the new health protocols. All the obligations that are made to us [par le gouvernement] will be respected, “said Karine Dorange, the deputy responsible for school affairs, community life, youth and sport.
Thursday, May 14, therefore, some students in the large section of kindergarten, CP and CM2 will find their way back to school. They are “priority children within the meaning of national education”, whose parents are part of the staff requisitioned, or working in the food or pharmacy, as well as children with disabilities.
Karine Dorange notes a student population “larger in the city center than in the neighborhoods”.
The recovery promises to be “very gradual. In kindergartens, for example, we start with five children ”per school, insists Jean-Pierre Gorges. At the head of the Steering Committee created to manage the health crisis, the mayor undertakes to “follow the situation very closely”, even if it means “changing direction” depending on how this recovery in stages will unfold.
Schools to reopen Thursday, May 14, in Chartres: update on recovery in ten questions
In class, each child will have a clearly identified table, and the work materials – notebooks, pens and the like – will have to stay in school. School catering also resumes service. Children will be served at the table and eat at a distance from each other. Hours of recreation or going to the bathroom, everything is done so that groups of children do not meet.
It remains to plan the second phase of the reopening of schools. As of Monday, May 25, all other levels are expected to return to school. “If we reopen all classrooms, even if it’s half the size, social distancing will be very difficult to organize,” Karine Dorange warns.
In the cribs
Reopening. All municipal creches reopen on Monday, according to a system that is also progressive: first five children, then eight per establishment, to reach ten by June 2 at the latest. Children are welcomed as a priority on the principle of that applied in schools.
