Le ministre de l’Éducation nationale Gabriel Attal a réuni tous les recteurs d’académie lundi 18 septembre 2023 après-midi pour faire un point sur les cas de harcèlement scolaire. Il a exigé un “électrochoc à tous les niveaux”.
The day after a letter from the rectorate of the Versailles academy was published to Nicolas’ parents, the teenager who committed suicide in early September after being a victim of bullying, Gabriel Attal gathered all the rectors of the academies on Monday, September 18, 2023, in the evening. “Let’s be clear: I want a shock at all levels,” he declared in front of the academy rectors, as reported by BFMTV.
The Minister of National Education has also announced an “audit in all the regional education authorities on all reported cases of harassment that were brought to the attention of the authorities last year.”
Cinq questions
France inter reminds that this audit work will start immediately in each academy, focusing on five questions set by the Minister of National Education.
- How many cases have been reported to the DSDEN (Departmental Directorate of National Education Services) and the rectorate?
- What was the processing time for each of these cases?
- Est-ce que le cas a été résolu et si non, pourquoi ?
- Existe-t-il des procédures et des circuits opérationnels en place pour traiter tous les signalements de harcèlement à votre niveau ? Si ce n’est pas le cas, pourquoi ?
- Comment est-ce que la communication est établie avec les familles lorsqu’un cas est signalé?
“I hope that the initial findings of this audit can be communicated to me within four weeks,” stated the minister, also expressing his desire for an “action plan per academic institution.”
“I cannot reword”
“Il est ensuite nécessaire de modifier ce qui ne fonctionne pas”, a-t-il continué à dire sur France Inter. Gabriel Attal demande à chaque académie de revoir sa stratégie de réponse aux cas de harcèlement. En ce qui concerne les ressources, le ministre de l’Éducation nationale a également assuré que “si nécessaire (…), pour former des équipes dédiées et qualifiées, dans les rectorats, chargées à temps plein de gérer les dossiers de harcèlement, je fournirai les ressources humaines nécessaires”.
Plans d’action
In a second step, action plans will be defined by academy to address what is not working. “I do not want this audit to be limited to observations,” emphasized the minister quoted by France Inter. An evaluation is also planned each year to have a precise follow-up on the management of harassment cases. Gabriel Attal stressed the importance of prioritizing the protection of students above all else, rather than protecting the institution of the National Education system at all costs.
