Because these repetitions and outings with no diploma “penalize our country in its ability to project itself and to face the future economic and societal challenges”, notice the smart males of rue Cambon, who deplore the too low a part of the funding of universities devoted to the prevention of failure. An insufficiency linked partially to their uncertainty as to the sustainability of their means. Another issue of failure not sufficiently taken into consideration by the general public authorities, based on the Court: the precariousness of sure college students or their distance from their house.

If the suggestions of the smart males seem to alter issues concretely (the authors advise to “better identify the causes of failure in the first university cycle”, to “make more accessible and readable all the support devices on Parcoursup” or to “set up a follow -up of the course of the students”), the opposite chapters dedicated to the schooling of younger individuals draw a extra convincing roadmap. In specific these dedicated to the orientation of younger individuals and to everybody’s entry to increased schooling.

For higher orientation of younger individuals

The distance from sure households in main cities, their higher precariousness and their geographic attachment additionally forestall kids from contemplating set up in main college cities. Added to that is the emergence of an ample coaching supply for the principles of the opaque and unstable sport. In this context, younger individuals and their mother and father – particularly these belonging to the deprived social courses – “are sometimes lacking in bearings”, specify the authors.

The major academics, to whom this activity is entrusted in the present day, fail to meet this mission as a result of lack of coaching and the shortage of time. But additionally as a result of it solely intervenes in faculty, “while many countries are starting to introduce the professions from primary school”, deplore the smart males, who estimate that 8,000 the variety of full-time equivalents mobilized and 400 million euros the price of this public coverage. “His organization must be reviewed,” they write.
