FRANCE : REFORM OF EDUCATION SYSTEM


The French Minister of Education, Jean-Michel Blanquer, aged 53 with a legal background, has announced a profound reform of the Education System.  His mission is part of the Reforms President Macron wants to introduce in France !
 
As noted in a previous article in this Blog, the 32 previous Ministers of Education since 1982, all made "improvements" which led to 87% of schooleavers in France being qualified to enter University !

Alas, too many students failed their exams after their first or second year at University !   Should the students be blamed for their failures or the
Education System ? 

Macron and Blanquer have launched a complete analysis of all aspects of the Education System, and this will take time.  Whatever changes are ultimately proposed, they will provoke opposition from Trade Unions and Political Parties !
