- Until now, the students underwent the test at the end of the final year of the course, performing all the tests for two weeks. But the bass reform establishes that the exams will have to be carried out in the last two years of the lyceum. Another change is that the tests will now be internal to the center and that this will generate differences of opportunities among the students. This week the first tests for accreditation of linguistic profiles have been carried out in the Basque Country. Several students have refused to take the exam, so some of the teachers to be attended have followed the strike.
Oihana Teyseyre Koskarat explained the situation in the news. The French Minister of Education, Jean Michel Blanquer, last year decided to reform the teaching of the bass. The intention of the reform is to reduce the pressure of students, with emphasis on continuous evaluation, and carrying out studies in the last two years.
However, some students and teachers say that it has achieved the opposite effect: that the pressure they suffered for the first month will bear it two years ago. In this new low system, the first test is called E3C and this week the exams of the subjects of History, Geography and Language of the area have been performed.
The student unions have denounced that what until now was a state-wide test, from now on, will be intracellular, so that "parity between students is not respected".
Protesters have made various mobilizations to show their "non-compliance" with the project. Teysey does the following in Berria: At Donibane Garazi's Nafarroa Lyceum a group of teachers was at the entrance to the school during the test period. In the Cassin de Baiona, Cantau de Angelu and Malraux schools in Biarritz, teachers and students have made exams difficult E3C. And one-third of the Cassin Lyceum students did not perform the E3C tests and managed to partially block the center. For their part, the forty professors in charge of monitoring the test performed a strike in the Basque Autonomous Community.
