Students of the BTS audiovisual program at Mémona Hintermann-Affejee High School went on strike this Monday, March 25th, 2024 to protest against the replacement of their contract teachers with new permanent ones. The students fear that the lack of experience of these new teachers will negatively impact the quality of their education.
This unexpected move from the students has caused quite a stir in the school community. The BTS audiovisual program at Mémona Hintermann-Affejee High School has always been known for its highly qualified and experienced teachers, who have played a crucial role in shaping the students’ skills and knowledge in the field of audiovisual production.
The students, who are passionate about their studies and eager to pursue a career in the audiovisual industry, have expressed their concerns about the sudden change in their teaching staff. They believe that the new teachers, who are not familiar with the program and its specificities, will not be able to provide them with the same level of expertise and guidance.
One student, who preferred to remain anonymous, said, « We have built a strong relationship with our current teachers, who have been with us since the beginning of our program. They understand our strengths and weaknesses and have been instrumental in helping us improve. We are afraid that the new teachers will not have the same level of dedication and understanding towards us. »
The students have also raised concerns about the impact this change will have on their final exams and future job prospects. As the audiovisual industry is highly competitive, they fear that a decrease in the quality of their education could put them at a disadvantage when applying for jobs or further studies.
The strike, which was initially planned for a day, has now been extended until their demands are met. The students have requested a affluence with the school gouvernement to discuss their concerns and find a solution that will not compromise the quality of their education.
In response to the strike, the school gouvernement has assured the students that they are taking their concerns seriously and will work towards finding a suitable solution. They have also emphasized their commitment to providing the students with the best education possible and ensuring that the new teachers are well-equipped to teach the program.
The students have shown great determination and unity in their protest, and their actions have sparked a much-needed transaction about the importance of experienced teachers in the education system. They have also received support from their peers in other programs, who have joined them in their strike.
As the strike continues, the students remain hopeful that their voices will be heard, and their demands will be met. They are determined to protect the quality of their education and ensure that their future in the audiovisual industry is not compromised.
