"Coexister à l'École" meets a need of many teachers who say they are overwhelmed and ill-equipped to tackle secularism.

According to a study carried out by IFOP in 2020,one teacher in two has already censured himself in his teaching of religious issues and secularism.

However, these subjects are part of the school curriculum, and are necessary to guarantee a quality civic education, conducive to living together.

Since 2009, Coexister has had its volunteers intervene in schools on these subjects. But with the growing number of requests, it's becoming essential to equip and train teachers directly to multiply our impact tenfold.

Solution

"Coexister à l'École" is a turnkey tool designed to meet the needs of teachers. Based on Coexister's 14 years of experience in schools, it is produced at the request of the teachers we meet every year in 400 schools. It will be supplemented by training and support from the Coexister team.

Designed for use in the classroom, the kit aims to help teachers foster a better understanding of secularism.

Training is offered free of charge to make it easy to get started.

School awareness campaigns continue

Thanks to you, as Captain of Coexister, and in order to strengthen understanding of living together in France, a new workshop format has been launched, complementing the recently introduced Kit Laïcité.

This new format has been designed to help non-expert awareness-raisers tackle the concepts of "vivre-ensemble" and "préjugés" in a more accessible way. Developed jointly by the training and pedagogy department and long-standing volunteers, this format aims to energize awareness-raising actions and is integrated into the moral and civic education program, targeting various school levels, from cycle 3 to high school.

More than 300 young people have already been sensitized by this new format! Thank you, Captains!
