Primary school internal regulations

The primary school consists of nursery school (cycle 1) and elementary school (cycles 2 and 3). These regulations are incorporated in their entirety into the establishment's internal regulations.

The student's registration entails the commitment to respect these regulations, which justifies the implementation of a disciplinary procedure in the event of failure to apply them.

It states as a principle:

– Secularism and neutrality in political and philosophical matters.

– The duty of tolerance and respect for people whatever their status.

– The disapproval of physical, verbal and moral violence.

– The obligation for each student to participate in all activities planned for their schooling, as organized by the establishment in application of the preceding paragraphs.

– The obligation for families to be in good standing with the stewardship.

It is possible to submit a registration file for the Petite Section as long as the children are three years old during the current calendar year, i.e. before December 31. For other sections, and subject to availability, registration will be subject to passing an entrance test. However, to apply, the child must be, during the current calendar year, four years old for the Middle Section or five years old for the Large Section. Full registration details are available on the establishment's website. Generally speaking, any student who has not shown up fifteen days after the start of the school year, without justification, even if tuition fees have been paid, will be removed from the lists on that date.

Likewise, any student absent for more than a month without justification provided by their parents will be considered to have left permanently.

2.1. Nursery school Enrolling in nursery school implies a commitment, for the family, to good attendance from the start of the school year and whatever the age of the child. Regular attendance at nursery school means the total duration of the weekly school timetable. This is in fact desirable for the development of the child's personality and thus prepares him to receive the training given by elementary school. In the event of irregular attendance, the director must insist on this point with the family and may decide to remove the child from the registered list and return him to his family, after having brought together the educational team and having spoken with the national education inspector. However, to enter school, the child must have learned to be clean and to signal when he needs to go to the toilet.

Absences and lateness Because it is an essential condition for success, the effective presence of students in all the courses listed in the timetable is an obligation.

The same goes for early departures and late arrivals around school holiday dates which hamper the interest in learning and educational progression. Absences are recorded each day in a special register kept by the teacher. Any absence must be immediately justified. Otherwise, it is reported to the parents of the student or to the person to whom he is entrusted, who must within forty-eight hours make known the reasons with production, if necessary, of a medical certificate. Families are required to produce it when a child who has contracted a contagious disease returns to class (see decree of May 3, 1989). Delays are also recorded by the master. Entry into class can only be done with a late ticket obtained from the secretariat. Any delay must be justified. Five delays result in a letter from the director to the families concerned. 10 delays result in a warning. 2.4.

3.1. General provisions The lives of students and the actions of teachers are organized in such a way as to enable the objectives set in Article 1 of Decree No. 90-788 of September 6, 1990 to be achieved.

Likewise, students, like their families, must refrain from any behavior, gesture or word that would undermine the function or person of the teacher and the respect due to their classmates or their families.

3.2. Educational measures 3.2.1. Nursery school The school plays a vital role in the socialization of the child: everything must be done to ensure that their access to learning and their development are encouraged. This is why no sanctions can be imposed. A child who cannot manage his emotions, however, may be isolated for a very short time, necessary to help him find behavior compatible with group life. It must not be left unsupervised at any time. However, when a child's behavior seriously and lastingly disrupts the functioning of the class and reflects an obvious maladjustment to the school environment, the child's situation must be submitted for examination by the educational team. A decision to withdraw for a short period from school can be taken by the director, after an interview with the parents and in agreement with the Head of the establishment. In this case, frequent contact must be maintained between the parents and the teaching team in order to allow their reintegration into the school environment as quickly as possible.

In the case of particularly serious difficulties affecting the student's behavior in his school environment, his situation must be submitted for examination by the educational team.

In the event of an emergency, the sick student is accompanied by a friend. The evacuation of students by families, at their own expense, can only be done with the agreement of the nurse who notifies the primary school principal. In the event of a chronic illness, parents must report it to the nurse. An Individualized Reception Project is put in place. A medical prescription from the attending physician is required for treatment to be taken while the child is at school.
