In a press release, the teacher union fsu denounces the working conditions in Saint-Martin and the lack of material resources granted.
“It has now been 8 months since Hurricane Irma hit Saint Martin with its share of destruction. Until the reconstruction of a new establishment [Soualiga college], it will be necessary to do with the 4 secondary schools still standing. The use of prefabricated standard provisional means was therefore obvious. Secondary teachers have just spent a year without seeing the slightest color. Tents completely unsuitable for teaching were delivered a few weeks after Irma but with missing parts. Since nothing! "Reports the union.
“The lack of available rooms has, therefore, forced teachers to find themselves by force in under service or in co-teaching even though their profession could have allowed them to rebuild themselves by finding a form of dignity when they had lost everything ", He considers.
On Thursday, May 31, a meeting was held in Saint Martin, chaired by Mr. Alfandari (Director of School Reconstruction at Sxm), "during which teachers were once again promised the arrival of prefabricated units for teaching" .
For the union, it is “urgent” to find solutions. “The merger of Weinum college and Soualiga college will bring the number of college students within the walls of Weinum college to 700 students, ie 25 divisions of 28 students. There are only 13 rooms available! Half less….
So here we are 3 months from the start of the next school year without any news from the prefabricators promised for 7 months, ”contests the FSU. And ironically: "Has the French State lost the address of Saint Martin? What a sense of organization and anticipation! Or maybe it is due to an orientation problem at sea? By air, the President of the Republic, the Prime Minister, the President of the National Assembly, the new prefect of Guadeloupe arrive quite easily to find Saint Martin. The materials by the sea significantly less. "
