25 higher education institutions are currently totally or partially closed after having identified cases of coronavirus.

And more and more establishments are using distance learning. 

For universities and schools, the situation turns into a puzzle.

While, according to figures from Public Health France, a third of the coronavirus clusters currently under investigation concern schools and universities, 25 higher education establishments (schools, BTS, facs combined) are to date completely closed. or partially.

And on site, where the wearing of the compulsory mask and the respect of physical distancing are obviously imposed, the owners of the establishment are gradually reinstating the distance courses, and adapting to the local health situation.

 Coronavirus: follow the evolution of the situation Wednesday, September 30

Thus, for all university bosses in France, each morning is punctuated by a crisis unit, the organization of the schedule, all orchestrated by a Covid referent.

Where there is no cluster, the rule is that half of the teaching is done remotely, the other on site.

But from three confirmed cases, the question of partial closure arises.

In Dijon, for example, 900 students were asked to stay at home after the discovery of several cases of Covid in two separate classes.

In Angoulême, the whole sports school is concerned.

The reality is that it is easier to close smaller schools, like this engineering school in Poitiers for example, than university sites. 

At the University of Aix-Marseille, all amphitheater lessons are done remotely

Another parameter: the local situation.

At the University of Aix-Marseille, located in the maximum alert zone, all amphitheater lessons are done remotely, except for students without a computer.

In Bordeaux-Montaigne, placed in a reinforced alert zone, lectures can only take place if the amphitheater does not exceed 30% of its capacity.

> When are we in contact?

And other questions that we ask ourselves every day

> What are "antigenic" tests, now authorized by the government?

> Coronavirus: the 5 mistakes not to make with your mask

> Coronavirus: from what age should you have your child tested?

There remains one question: under-declaration.

The president of the University of Aix-Marseille admits to being surprised himself.

194 out of 80,000 sick students since the beginning of September is not much.

He is now launching an application to allow his students to register more easily from a distance.
