The school uniform: “Not sure if it’s a miracle solution but it deserves to be tested, launch an experiment soon enough”@GabrielAttal in

And to justify: “I think the way to get an idea is to test in different territories, different establishments. He said he was “not sure if it’s a silver bullet”, but “it’s worth trying”.

While political figures have been campaigning for the uniform for a few weeks, such as Éric Ciotti, Louis Aliot or Robert Ménard, Gabriel Attal sends them a message: “I invite these elected officials to approach my services to concretely offer the institutions in which they would like to experiment with a unique school uniform and I will announce in the fall the modalities of the experimentation which will make it possible to test this solution. But the whole educational community will have to be willing, he stresses.

“We will then have to see if it is useful or not for the students. We must not lose sight of the compass: the important thing when testing measures like this is above all what it allows in terms of transmission, raising the level at school, restoring authority in our establishments. »

In terms of authority, Gabriel Attal reaffirmed his desire to be firm in the face of the abaya. Thus, a student coming with this outfit this Monday morning will not be able to enter class, he says. She will instead have “an exchange with the educational teams who will explain the rule to her”. And to clarify: “We have positioned staff trained in these secularism issues” in front of the establishments that could be concerned. They are inspectors, secular-values ??personnel of the Republic. 513 establishments have been identified, says the minister.
