It is a right that I did not grant me he said

A speech both soothing and proactive, two new discussions in the program of the winter, and a team reinforced by 2 personalities clash, Martin Hirsch and Richard Descoings: a month after the December high bronca, Nicolas Sarkozy seeks to demonstrate that it takes very seriously "the anguish" growing youth. The head of State, who had chosen Saint-Lô to present the second stage of its wishes "decentralized" to staff of National Education, alongside Martin Hirsch and Xavier Darcos, was welcomed yesterday by hundreds of demonstrators in a stormy climate. Tensions that he attempted to defuse by meeting a local schoolgirl coordination and by sending a long message to the youth.

"Open to all profiles.

"I have been very attentive to the concerns expressed in recent months," thus said the head of State, referring to a "crisis of the future." But it is precisely this crisis which, in his view, justifies more than ever that we "continue the committed action" with determination. "We have not the right back down." Governments fell. "It is a right that I did not grant me", he said.

While welcoming the balance sheet of Xavier Darcos, Nicolas Sarkozy concluded that it remained "much to be done" to combat social and educational inequality. And it is precisely to engage "the second phase of reforms", that the President had committed Richard Descoings services. The charismatic Director of Sciences po Paris will be responsible for, the head of a mission to conduct the debate on reform of high schools that Nicolas Sarkozy wants to conduct "without any taboo (...), without removing a penny and remove a position at the high school". As the current High Commissioner to solidarity, Martin Hirsch, he was attaching a second CAP, the High Commissioner for youth (mission which disappears from the portfolio of the current Secretary of State for youth and Sports, Bernard Laporte).

Both will be charged both the conduct of consultations to clear the land, and experiments to give air to reforms as the head of State deems too confined rue de Grenelle. "High school should be opened up to all the profiles (...), it must be tuned higher education and the professional world," and said Nicolas Sarkozy, wishing that Richard Descoings associated more civil society (especially students) in the debate that opens. To go quickly, without waiting for reform pushed back to September 2010 after, voluntary secondary schools may also be granted new margins for manoeuvre concerning school rhythms and the Organization of the teachings. Nothing surprising on the part of the who, over the speech and its program, had a ceases to be a champion of the autonomy of schools. The question how to pass to the practical work is: so far, few were institutions that seized this educational autonomy, yet already offered since the 2005 Fillon law.

150 Million

Cape assigned to the new High Commissioner for youth is a little more vague: the head of State has indicated that he wanted to give more "autonomy" to young people, taking on his own account a theme dear to some of their representative organizations. Martin Hirsch, will have to lead consultation as soon as this semester, and will be granted a budget of 150 million to set up a new Fund experiments for young people ". A program.
