ALERT : OVER 650 AFFECTED TEACHERS WITHOUT SALARY: AN UNACCEPTABLE SILENT CRISIS
A large number of newly assigned primary school teachers deprived of salary for four months.
F or four months now, over 650 recently assigned primary school teachers (instituteurs) have been desperately awaiting their first salary. Every 25th of the month, the traditional payday, their bank accounts remain strangely empty. This intolerable situation plunges these educators into extreme precarity, degrading not only their personal living conditions but also their capacity to fully commit to their educational mission.
Among these civil servants, many are parents. The absence of financial resources severely compromises the well-being of their families: difficulties in meeting basic needs, delayed rent payments, and inability to ensure children's schooling and nutrition. These are broken lives, careers compromised before they even began.
The most shocking aspect is not just this scandalous delay, but the deafening silence surrounding the crisis. No documents, no clear information is communicated to those concerned. Their files seem lost in the administrative maze of the 5th Republic, with no authority deigning to inform them or intervene effectively.
This situation reflects a profound dysfunction and an unacceptable contempt towards those who dedicate their lives to national education. It is urgent that public authorities, at the very heart of the Republic, take responsibility. Restoring the dignity of these teachers by promptly paying their salaries is not a favor, but a demand for social justice.
We call on the competent authorities to immediately lift the opacity surrounding these files, put an end to this injustice, and ensure the rapid regularization of payments. Educators deprived of income for several months deserve not only their salary but also the unwavering respect and support of the State.
Ignoring this situation will ultimately condemn the quality of education and the trust in our educational system. The future of our children and the very credibility of the civil service are at stake.
Act without delay.
