Call for systematic teacher screening

The call of the councilor to systematically screen all teachers, nursery helpers and canteen staff before returning to schools, is supported by the federations of parents of pupils. In Vienna, but also at the national level. "This is what we have been demanding from the start," reacts Rodrigo Arenas, president of the Federation of Parents' Councils (FCPE).

"The best way to fight psychosis is to reassure parents, to reassure staff who will be in contact with children and who must be able to go into the field without being afraid to take care of these children", continues the union official.

In Chauvigny, the start of the school year has been postponed to May 27. If the six missing tests are also negative, the start of the nursery and primary schools can be done on Tuesday.
