EDUCATION – The government planned the coup. Pap Ndiaye announced on Friday March 17 that additional supervisors are mobilized from Monday so that the first exams of the 2023 baccalaureate go well. Let them take place on best possible is also the wish expressed this Sunday on BFMTV by Philippe Martinez.
The secretary general of the CGT was questioned to find out if he was calling for the organization of the so-called specialty tests to be disrupted while the distrust of the government and its pension reform does not fall. Especially since this Monday marks a decisive day with the vote in parliament of two motions of censure.

In the event of a problem in public transport, the candidates have one hour to present themselves for the test.
Laurent Berger would like this scenario not to occur. In Releasethe general secretary of the CFDT is formal: “ we don’t get in the way “. The leader of the first trade union in France considers that ” for a young person of terminal, the month of March is a total stress » with the baccalaureate but also Parcoursup. Accordingly for him, one should not add ” above their heads a sword of Damocles What would be the risk of arriving late or of having to miss this important moment.
But this is not the opinion of all the central trade unions. In a press release published on Friday, the Snes-FSU, SUD Education, FO and CGT Education had said they wanted to harden the opposition movement to the pension reform. ” Examinations should not be an obstacle to mobilizing”, said Jules Siran, federal co-secretary of SUD education, while his Snes-FSU counterpart Sophie Vénétitay spoke more directly ” guards’ strike.
