Guyane: School Hitting Controversy · Global Voices
Alice Backer

Blada.com is unhappy (Fr) with the Mayor of Cayenne's response to the recent hitting of a child by  a school aide. (The mayor issued a decree asking school aides –called ATSEM– not to stay alone with children.) The site believes that that response is against the law and  a copout to the many teachers and school personnel unions who have jumped to the defense of the school aide before seeing the results of an ongoing investigation.
