Closed lycées teach online Access and disruption
Geffray announces next-day school closures and consultations
Oct 1
France 2 follows pupils and teachers using remote lessons after high-school closures. Strasbourg pupils gather outdoors to work and protest peacefully; another pupil’s school has been closed since Friday. Caroline Martinez says her daughter has only a phone for lessons. Publicly shared classroom links allow outsiders to interrupt lessons, including a history class the team joined in PACA. SNES-FSU’s Jean-Christophe Momal questions remote teaching’s effectiveness and stresses classroom interaction. The report says more than 200 Île-de-France lycées will remain closed with remote lessons the following day; the hoped-for gradual Wednesday return is prospective.
In his October 1 interview Geffray announces over 400 school closures on October 2 for safety after damaged fire systems and attacks on staff. School heads decide with prefects and rectors, including distance teaching. He announces next-day meetings with union, parent and pupil representatives and describes dialogue already underway. This is an announcement rather than proof all closures or meetings occurred. France 2’s October 5 follow-up documents remote-class implementation after closures, including one lycée closed since Friday October 2. Pupils study outdoors in Strasbourg; a parent describes phone-only access, publicly shared links invite outsiders to disrupt classes and a SNES-FSU representative questions effectiveness. The report also anticipates more than 200 Île-de-France closures with distance teaching on October 6 and attributes hopes for gradual Wednesday return to the minister. These are later consequences and forecasts, not proof that every announced consultation occurred.
