The baccalaureate 2020 made skeptics - Fred Dides / SIPA

Ha the bac, the stress of the result, the pressure of a first "real" diploma, the transition to adulthood, the joy of getting it, or the sadness of having missed it ... See the incomprehension and the strangling of surprise. This is what ten high school students of the school of professional trades of Saint-Christol-lès-Alès (Gard) experienced this year, which, given their good marks and their regularity throughout the year school children, expected to receive the precious sesame and had the very bad surprise of all of them being refused it.

And it is not the prospect of retaking the tests in September that will have made people happy or bring relief, some of the students having already committed to their studies or professionally for the start of the school year.

The director goes to war

Neither one nor two, the school principal, Céline Ringot, seized the rectorate. But the latter's response, communicated to Midi-Libre on Friday , should not have been to his liking: "The jury for the baccalaureate examination considered the elements of the dossier presented by the school of Cévennes professional professions inadmissible of from an educational point of view, the assessments provided do not correspond to the skills targeted by the diploma. "

Not enough to sound the end of the game, however, since the director challenges the decision, arguing the past success of previous generations in the bac "of the world before" (without continuous monitoring) and the validity of their diplomas. As for the high school girls, they did not sit idly by either and approached their families with a lawyer to challenge this non-admission.
