The students of Guadeloupe will all return to school on Monday to follow face-to-face lessons thanks to the favorable evolution of the health situation, after a partial return on September 13, said Wednesday the rectorate of the academy of the island in a press release.

Since the start of the school year, which was far behind that in France, due to the 4th wave of the Covid-19 epidemic, primary school students in particular had classed half a day per week in groups of 5, the rest of the staff being maintained at home, with a distance learning system.

As of September 27, primary, 6th and 5th grade students will have class.

For 4th and 3rd year college students, a half-gauge is maintained at “50%”, as is the case in high school, which applies this same “hybrid gauge” of alternation between presence in the establishment and lessons at home, specifies the rectorate in a press release.

If the epidemic slows down on the island, the circulation of the virus remains important all the same, so the rectorate has decided to maintain "reinforced measures of ventilation" of the classes and "washing of hands".

Wearing a mask remains "compulsory indoors and outdoors for staff and students from elementary school," he recalls.

"Classes will close from the first positive case of Covid"

For the canteen it is the "limitation of brewing by compulsory level and by class in the 1st degree" which is in force. The protocol also provides for the “disinfection” of tables and surfaces several times a day and “if possible”. “The classes will close from the first positive case of Covid, with the class being placed in isolation for seven days, and the continuation of remote learning,” the statement said. Parents greeted with “relief”. On the union side, enthusiasm is less.

"The position of the FSU is and remains a recovery in half-gauge from kindergarten to university", remind the elected officials in a meeting report, accusing the rectorate of having been "pushed by the federations of parents of 'students ".

Same posture on the side of the FAEN / SNCL, which brings together secondary school teachers, which indicates in a press release: "By continuing in this direction, the rectorate risks setting up the conditions for the pediatric wave announced by the various scientific committees. consulted by the State ”.
