The government wants to impose a brutal turn to the institute, cutting de facto its precious ties with the actors of education. The INRP should this time integrate the Ecole normale sup?rieure (ENS) of Lyon and become its department of research in education, which would mean the end of sustainable recruitments for researchers and the end of association with primary and secondary school teachers. The implementation is planned for January 1st, 2011, while, at the same time, a report of AERES (French Agency for research and higher education evaluation) (visit of the INRP last June) emphasises the need for consolidating the INRP in its essential missions. This attack is not isolated: it is in line with a policy of reorganization and restriction of the means, which concerns education and training. An international appeal of researchers and actors of education AGAINST the dissolution of the INRP, IN FAVOR of the INRP having the means for developing its missions is online http://www.sauvonslarecherche.fr/spip.php?page=article&id_article=3245 Thank you for supporting this fight and for widely disseminating this information. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
