Education: Private Colleges to Increase the Number of Registered

11 years, 2 months ago - January 25, 2013

This is a phenomenon that "grows," says the union Yahya Paraouty. Students are enrolled in the sector prévoc, but they remake, in fact, their Certificate of Primary Education (CPE).

"Many private colleges record of students who have failed the CPE as Pre Voc Students in Form I, but they follow again CPE classes to take the exams," said Yahya Paraouty, president of the Union of Private Secondary Schools Employees (UPSEE).

The goal: "These colleges need a maximum number of students to ensure their survival," says the union. Requested by express , a teacher of a private college in the South, confirms that this is common practice in many private colleges.

"At the college where I work, management has hired a former primary school teacher, only to teach students the CPE," he adds.

These private colleges also wear another trick, this time bypassing the Ministry of Education. They enroll students prévoc even before it has officially announced the institution in which these recalibrated the CPE will be deployed.

Something that the minister should Bunwaree today during a press conference.

"Before that parents can choose the management of private colleges is already canvassing," protested Yahya Paraouty. According to him, these private colleges are picking on parents, often even forcing their hand to enroll their children in their school.

It all started with a decision of the Ministry of choices for parents whose children are recalibrated the CPE: prévoc or the CPE. Except that these private colleges, enjoying a blur around this measure, eventually forcing the parents to admit their children in school.

Previously, it was only during a failure after a second attempt at CPE, these children are deployed to prévoc classes.

Now, this is the very first failure they can access it. This led parents to think they should automatically orient their children to these classes."This is a golden opportunity for private colleges to inflate their population," said Yahya Paraouty.

Another blur is the latter, "the State informs parents that recalibrated the CPE can integrate prévoc sector and, if they wish, take part again this year at CPE it. The minister must know what he wants. " The Ministry of Education should, in turn, shed light on the subject during his press conference today.
