After more than three months of closure due to coronavirus, that's it: schools and colleges will reopen to all school children from June 22. This is one of the main announcements made by the President of the Republic during his address on June 14. With the presence of pupils now "compulsory", Jean-Michel Blanquer, the Minister of National Education, confirmed on Europe 1 that the health protocol would be lightened in order to accommodate everyone.

Parents will have to rely on their leave or RTT

The Minister of National Education Jean-Michel Blanquer announced the reduction of the health protocol and in particular the end of the 4 square meter rule between each student. With this reduction which should allow all children to return to school, the reason for partial activity for childcare for children under 16 will no longer be possible.

If parents refuse to send their children to school, it is therefore their leave or RTT that they will have to count on.
