In order to achieve €600 million in savings, Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu is campaigning for a refocusing of the school start-up allowance, which is paid on modest incomes to cover the costs of returning to school for their children.
The general delegate of Emmaus France, Tarek Daher, recalls that this allowance is supposed to put all pupils on the same starting line. To reduce or abolish it, as Sébastien Lecornu proposes in his draft budget, would put at risk the schooling of millions of pupils in France.
There are no small savings! The idea is obviously to take away even more from the poorest in France. The government plans to cut spending by 600 million euros. The article Budget 2027: 600 million euros of savings envisaged on the school start-up allowance appeared first on the Café pédagogique.
A new line in the 2027 budget erases 600 million euros from the school start-up allowance, which is paid every year to three million families, yet is essential for equal access to education by enabling children to start and continue their schooling and related activities with dignity.
