"Tout ce blabla pour 2 semaines de chaleur dans l'année... En Espagne, Italie, comment font-ils ?"

In response to the early heatwave affecting France, the Ministry of National Education has indicated that no school closures are planned at this time. The Minister did, however, specify that schools have been reminded of common-sense measures to protect students and exam candidates. Instructions have been sent to school principals and heads of institutions, focusing in particular on ventilating classrooms, ensuring students stay hydrated, and prohibiting physical activity during the hottest hours of the day. While temporary closures remain possible in certain local situations, they are not being considered at this stage. The Minister also indicated that postponing the vocational baccalaureate exams is not currently planned. 00:00 Record Heat: Should Schools Be Closed? 03:17 Jean-Philippe Doux: “Obviously, if it’s for safety reasons, if they’re in danger, then of course the schools have to be closed.” 05:40 Emmanuelle Dancourt: “Most of the schools date from after World War II, a time when building materials weren’t resilient at all, and when they also paved all the playgrounds with concrete…” 07:48 Daniel Riolo rants about the heatwave: “All this fuss over two weeks of heat a year… How do they manage in Spain and Italy?
