Ok, things on the tables!
Form blocks with them.
Elena, do one here. Louise, here.
Kylian, there.
Watch your fingers. Let's get moving.
Your pencil case.
Watch your glue.
Put your things on the floor.
Try to help each other.
Redo number 3 neatly and show your neighbour.
Are many of you stuck?
Hands up if you can't do it.
Ok, not too many of you.
Elena, you're the teacher.
Let's encourage her.
Start with number 3.
A REAL JOB
Excuse me!
Sorry, excuse me!
No running, ma'am!
Hurry it up.
Go easy on yourself. They're lucky to have a teacher.
Line up, please.
They're waiting for you.
- I'll leave you? - Yes.
Have a good day.
Good morning.
Go on in.
Sit down.
Take your seats.
Use the chair, not the table.
In the classroom, no chatting, please.
Outside is fine, but not in here.
I'll introduce myself. I'm Mr Barrois.
I heard Barrow.
Two Rs. I'm replacing your maths teacher.
Who has the course book?
May I see it? Thank you.
Ok, can one of you tell me
what chapter you had reached?
Close the window, please, I can't hear.
It was chapter 2.
- Chapter 2? - Euclidean divisions.
- Integers? - Yes.
- You saw Euclidean division? - Not yet.
Close the window.
It won't close.
It's jammed.
It's no use.
It's mounted wrong.
Barrois is a handyman!
Hit it at the top.
Not all at once! Go and sit down!
Stop that!
Get down now, I'll do it!
What's going on here?
We can't work next door.
What are you doing?
Closing the window.
It doesn't close, it's jammed. Sit down.
Sit up properly.
Something to say, sir?
Can you tidy this away?
What is it?
A problem?
No, we can handle it.
- You're sure? - Yes.
A study group needs supervising.
You're here to supervise,
so supervise that things stay calm, ok?
Listen to me.
You must respect a supervisor
the same as a teacher. Is that clear?
- Excuse me... - Sir...
He's not a supervisor.
I'm the new maths teacher.
Mr Barrois.
I'm sorry. Forgive me.
- It's alright. - Sorry.
Shout if you need me.
I'll read your names.
Tell me if I mangle them.
Hello.
- Eating alone? - Work to correct.
Me too.
Am I disturbing you?
No.
Is year 9 better?
They wear me out.
Barely 14 and they resist it all.
They're even mean at times.
They're horrible here, but adorable at home.
Even your daughter will be like them later.
Nice to you, awful with her teachers.
My son is 16.
But that brings other problems.
Hold on...
I have something for you. I give it to new teachers.
The ministry used to edit this.
Methods to control a class. It's not bad.
Some stuff helped me a lot.
They tell young teachers to cut their hair short
and wear glasses.
I did that at first to look older and sterner.
It works well.
Let the teachers through. Stand aside!
Let me through. Take that cap off.
Gangway!
Careful, girls.
Excuse me.
Are there fries?
- You didn't react? - To say what?
It's sick sorting students?
That no one cares about the level?
Sure.
- Hello, everyone. - Hi.
That seat's for Alix.
Seriously? You have to eat together? Worse than a couple.
Sorry, Fouad, sports teachers don't mingle.
Can I get a chair?
Mind your head.
Met Benjamin?
He's replacing Carenti.
Fouad, English.
Benjamin, how do you do?
- How about some music? - No, please.
Stop.
I just told them to shut up.
Getting your bearings?
Not really. My year 10s are out of their depth.
- Which class? - D.
That's a good class.
They do German.
You need tutorials to help prepare your classes.
There's stuff on the Net.
I mostly tried using the stuff on Eduscol.
Eduscol?
Stella, I warned you already!
Eduscol sucks. You need to go on YouTube
to watch tutorials. Trust us.
Where did you get that?
I saved it from yesterday.
You kept yesterday's Camembert to eat in front of us?
That's sick with no fries on a Tuesday.
- Thursday's fries. - Tuesday.
- No, Tuesday. - Thursday.
Always Thursday.
- Are fries on Tuesday? - No, Thursday.
There you go.
There were fries last Tuesday, sorry.
Can someone show me Pronote?
I'll show you at the break.
Thanks.
I can show you too.
I can show you after or before the break.
They can be a drag.
Quiet, please.
Alright...
There are two main types of volcano. What are they?
Cut that out.
Thank you.
Who wants to answer?
Ouma.
Explosive and effusive.
Know the difference?
No.
It's in the magma. We'll do an experiment.
You have two bottles.
In the first bottle, add...
Note this.
I won't repeat it.
...three spoons of flour.
In each bottle,
add two spoons of baking soda.
Careful with the soda. Don't try to taste it.
Look, two kinds of eruption. One is explosive,
with the flour...
And the other is effusive.
Samia!
See it flow down the sides?
You've all seen rivers of lava? Let's try it.
Stand at the basins.
Inès, go around.
I'll do the soda.
Rosalie, stay there. Form a group.
Three spoons of flour.
Good morning. You may sit down.
Today, Thales's theorem.
Try to stay calm and focused as it's a bit complex.
We have a triangle, ABC,
and a line, MN, that bisects the triangle
while being...
while being parallel... Quiet.
...parallel to BC.
If that's so, AM over AB
is equal to AN over AC and equal to MN over BC.
Is that clear?
What's going on?
Ok? You seem weird?
- I'm fine. - Your thesis?
No, Thales.
Revising his theorem?
For my classes. I started today.
Shit, that's right. Well?
3 times 8?
24.
I spent ten minutes saying 3 times 8, 32.
I totally lost it.
You think you know, but you don't.
You can't even explain what you know.
- What year? - 8.
Oh, right...
You've given private lessons.
I'm a replacement for 30 kids who don't want to be there.
Prepare or you're dead.
And if you bore them.
Why not ask Mum?
Mum sucks at maths.
As a French teacher, she knows students.
Lend me your glasses.
What do you think?
A word of advice for young teachers with discipline problems.
When two students are talking,
it can be quite effective
to place two fingers on the table
while pursuing the lesson.
The table becomes
a transitional object between teacher
and student,
and it's incredible to see
this silences students.
It's very effective.
Another word of advice for young teachers...
Never turn your back
to the whole class.
Even when checking the work of a student here, say,
or there, I keep my back to the wall
while retaining control of the space
and of each student.
There...
The exercise is on the board.
You need to show that MN and BC...
Your bag.
...are parallel.
Who wants to give it a go?
You there, in the red sweater,
second row, with the hood.
Me?
Yes. Your name again?
Jules.
Jules, go for it.
You can use the data on the board.
The answers are there.
Ok...
What kept you?
Sorry, my students gave me cookies.
- Why? - No reason.
No reason?
Want one?
- Mind if we take Sophie? - No.
Come on.
Can I sleep at yours? Cynthia's at mine.
Get in.
Sorry.
Benjamin!
Where are you going?
The station.
Make room for maths.
That's kind. Thanks.
I was 29 when I arrived from Bayonne, 31 years ago.
Is the car that old?
You don't know what you said.
271,000 km. A Renault Safrane 2.
20 years old, like my son.
I couldn't face the bus with students.
And the car only ever broke down once.
Don't get him started.
Winter 2005.
I'm regretting it now.
I don't have to tell the story.
I want to hear it anyhow.
I've heard it 100 times already.
I won't tell it then.
It was the winter of 2005. It was snowing...
I knew you'd tell it.
I was on the N12 feeder road,
listening to Francis Cabrel.
Still got the tape?
- Here. - He still has it!
The original. A collector's item.
Francis Cabrel.
All of a sudden, the Safrane started spluttering
and then stopped dead, broken down.
I couldn't start it again.
So I got out, risking my life, to hitch a ride.
It was cold, snowing and dark.
No one stopped and I was getting really worried.
All of a sudden,
this huge black Mercedes pulls up next to me,
the passenger window lowers
and you'll never guess who it was.
Francis Cabrel?
You're a drag, going on about the tape.
Let me tell the story, dammit.
A collector's item.
See you tomorrow.
- Paris. You? - Boissy-St-Léger.
See you tomorrow.
Yeah, see you. And thanks!
For what?
Your advice helped a lot.
You're getting your bearings.
You said it.
You like cookies?
- Yeah. Why? - Have these.
- Sure? - Yeah or my son will eat them all.
I'm late to pick him up.
See you tomorrow.
Let's take a look. When I'm at zero
on the Greenwich meridian, that's my zero line.
I'm going to move to the east.
Alsace is in eastern France, so we move east.
If I leave from zero and go to the North Pole,
I'll follow this path...
Sphere and ball?
I'm sorry?
Position on a Sphere. Yvan Monka's course.
- I'm at Molière. You? - Victor Hugo.
- A replacement? - Yeah.
I screen it for them now with a video projector.
- Yeah? - My stop.
- Good luck. - Thanks.
It's me. Yes, I know.
Sweetheart. Sorry I'm late.
- Had a good day? - Yes.
It went ok?
Yeah.
Sorry, you know how it is.
Let's have a kiss.
Ok, sweetheart?
Tell me about your day.
- I played chess. - Chess?
- Done your homework? - Yes.
Ball to Marquinhos.
Nice recovery by the opposite side...
Messi...
- Finished? - Not yet.
Does smoking bother you?
Hi, Fouad.
- How's it going? - Fine, thanks.
Do I close the door?
Will this last much longer?
He should have succeeded.
The best class in the best school, private lessons.
The room nearby. We did it all.
To help and support him.
Loads of kids bite the dust.
He isn't allowed to?
Yes, he is, of course.
So what's the problem?
It disappointed me, I can't put it any other way.
Now, I can't talk to him.
It'll be ok.
Alright...
I'm going to give you a flower each.
Don't play with it.
Touch them when I say so, ok?
One for you?
Please. A bit more open.
Thank you.
This is the flower in front of you.
And the dissected flower.
What did I do before class?
I removed the sepals
as in the diagram.
May I have your workbook? Listen to the teacher.
I just want a book.
- A problem? - No, I just want his book.
Carry on.
We'll now observe it with the binocular loupe.
The back row can join me quietly.
Stand up nice and quietly.
The second row now.
So, Alix, what can you see?
Lots of tiny circles.
They're not circles, they're ovules.
The ovary contains ovules
that become seeds
once pollinated.
Note your observations in the gardening book.
Quiet, please.
Who can tell me what this is?
It's an avocado.
Very funny, Quentin. Anyone?
It's an orange.
Of course, but what else?
A sphere.
Hamburgers.
If we're on the Equator and want to find
where the North Pole is...
What angle is that?
90, exactly. 90 degrees, north for the North Pole.
90 degrees south, the South Pole.
And you'll find Berlin's place on the sphere.
How did you feel earlier?
I had the impression I aroused their interest.
I'll be frank with you.
I felt that your lesson was...
rather boring.
Here's why.
It's because you have no interaction at all with the students.
You ask questions
and answer them yourself.
You don't give them time, see?
No, not at all.
Your lesson lacks flexibility and improvisation.
You're in a tunnel.
So you get bored.
And when you get bored,
the students do too.
But you have a great subject.
You can do so much.
I taught earth sciences myself for 15 years.
Anyhow...
I'm not questioning your skills or motivation,
but you need inspiration.
A new awareness.
Ok? That's why I may sound a bit harsh.
You understand?
There.
It's never too late to improve.
Alright...
Don't worry, no one is infallible.
It won't all go in the report.
Have a good day. And good luck.
Over to us.
- Sorry about the delay. - It happens.
Are you ok?
Sit where you like.
Come on! Let's go!
Hurry up and stay together.
Why the hell did you let them out?
All students back in class! Come on!
Where's the emergency phone?
Room 28. It's on the sheet.
- What are you? - Zone supervisor.
Ok, I'm zone leader. And you?
Zone assistant. What do I do?
Unplug two fuses in the box. Gotta go.
Hold on, Fouad!
This is to seal your windows.
- How do I open this? - With a key.
- Where is it? - In the key box.
Go back to your classrooms!
- For your windows. - Got it.
- The key box is here. - Thanks.
Want this?
Who's supervising?
Christophe.
Can you manage?
Help me, I'm lost.
Some fuses have to be unplugged, it isn't clear.
Find S1.
The light!
Sorry, my bad!
Here's S1. Follow the numbers.
S2, S3. Sorry,
I have to get back upstairs.
Still on the fuses?
Great. We're good!
Mission accomplished. I have the emergency phone.
Great!
Alright, sit down!
I made it. We're safe and sound.
Léonie, thanks. Sit down now.
Emergency phone.
Now we await orders.
What's going on?
Léonie, where's Malcolm?
Where's Malcolm?
Excuse me.
I spoke to the parents. They found him.
Mr Medaoui, I'm listening. Tell me what happened.
I did what we sometimes or even often do.
I asked a student to supervise the class.
I didn't know about a zone supervisor.
Your class was unsupervised?
I tried calling you 20 times
on the emergency phone. Why didn't you reply?
It didn't ring.
Apparently, it wasn't on.
What do you mean, not on?
No idea, it wasn't on.
You didn't turn the phone on?
Is it tough turning a phone on or following orders?
Come on, you reminded us on the day
about orders from early August.
There were 40 pages of them.
Did anyone read them?
Mrs Balian, you aren't on trial.
It feels like we are!
We want to know what happened.
It's simple, we can't handle a thing like that!
No one trained or showed us. It's a pain,
even for students. Lockdown, fire,
intrusion... What'll it be next?
It's not our fault a kid left when told not to.
It's true.
No, that's not our fault.
A zone leader who leaves his class and can't use a phone,
that's not normal!
Sorry, it's not normal!
You need to know we're aware we ask a lot of you.
We know that.
Next time, turn the phone on.
Your bad.
I'm drinking to the holidays!
To the holidays!
Thanks for coming.
The holidays. Whose turn?
Three.
Can you do all brown in Trivial Pursuit?
- Yes. - Thanks, Meriem.
You're shitting me!
They keep complaining.
Loosen up, ok.
- This is my place. - They asked nicely.
Easy.
It's the opposite!
You looked at the answer!
It's easy, ok.
Where do 1 in 6 French people live?
Must be a city.
1 in 6...
On campsites!
There's a trap.
He says there's a trap!
It's to complete a cheese!
I need the yellow wedge.
I'll bomb again!
Don't be a bad sport.
Excuse me...
Has anyone got papers?
Cigarette papers.
No, we don't have papers.
I only have A4 paper.
Who wants some quiche?
Sure. What's in the quiche?
Whose turn?
You don't do that.
As if I care.
My friends aren't your buddies.
Go on, beat it.
No.
What is this?
Wassup? Beat it!
Want me to hit you?
Move!
Get the hell out!
Hello, sorry, transport problems.
Come in.
Hello.
The sports teachers?
Lucas Fichon's parents? Hello.
Come in.
I brought the work you handed back.
I'm surprised by the grade you gave.
I lecture in fluid mechanics and her work is good.
How can you prepare them for the exam?
We weren't told the teacher is a novice.
Well, maybe
you should say that
to the education board or the ministry.
He doesn't like school.
He never liked it as a little kid and he still doesn't.
He agrees.
Does he have any questions?
Any questions?
Did you understand what I explained?
I didn't understand.
- His behaviour's ok? - Fabien.
- Yes? - Our turn for maths.
Give me a second.
We've been waiting an hour.
I'm really sorry. Have a good day.
Are you ok? You're doing good.
I'm pleased. I have good relations with my students.
You always wanted to teach?
I think so.
But on all my reports, they wrote,
"Not an academic."
I was a bad student.
But I get by somehow.
I have good relations with my students.
I'll show you around.
So, this is my place.
This is the kitchen.
With microwave, hotplates,
washing machine, fridge.
Make yourself at home.
Great.
This here is my bedroom.
I dry my clothes here and sleep on the couch.
The bathroom, the toilet...
- And the kid's room. - You have a kid?
No, we didn't have time with Cynthia.
We didn't have time.
It's your room now.
You can move your stuff in.
The mattress isn't bad.
- Wonderful. - Great, isn't it?
It's really big.
Yeah, frankly,
staff apartments can be really good.
No waste of space.
The living room, 26 m2, with TV and PS4...
Home cinema...
You've just saved a 2.5-hour commute.
It's excellent.
It'll change your life.
Thank you.
I'm glad to help.
Come and see the highlight.
- Aren't the wires dangerous? - No, I come every day.
Here you go.
My own private place.
You can see it all. The gate,
the school, the refectory,
the teachers' car park,
the athletics track,
the forest.
Who left, her or you?
It was her.
She was sick of life with a teacher.
18 hours of work a week,
job security, four months' holiday a year...
She snapped.
We'd reached the end of the line.
She felt I smoked too much.
Look, it's Pierre.
When I'm down, I sleep at his place.
But I'm ok otherwise.
You're not bored here?
How d'you mean?
You never leave the school.
No.
All day with the kids suits me.
Teaching, I see them grow and develop. That's amazing.
And a few always laugh at my jokes.
Did you have a good weekend?
Good, as I corrected your work.
Actually, it's not bad.
Can you hand it out?
It's very good.
I'm pretty proud of you.
You're making progress.
It's generally very good.
Laura, the best grade. 19/20. Well done.
I'm proud of her.
Rémy, a bit shaky.
As for you two, no comment.
- What did you get? - Zero.
Zero sucks.
Put your work away.
Find the correction online.
Forget my zero, ok? It's not your problem.
Open your books to page 48.
Why did we get zero?
Can't you guess?
No, we can't.
- It's not fair. - You're dumb, bro.
Shut your mouth.
Watch your tongue, ok.
It's not right, sir.
What's not right is identical work.
- What d'you mean, identical? - So?
It was individual work, not team work.
- Who said it wasn't? - I did.
New rules now?
Who didn't know it was individual work?
Only you, so zero.
Your rules suck anyway.
If you're not happy, add a 2 to make it 20.
Sir, you won't change my grade?
Like I told you, look...
You have a zero here.
Add a 2 in front to make 20.
Got that or is it too tough?
Quiet now, Enzo, and let us work.
Begin.
- Anything else to say? - No.
Great. It wasn't very interesting.
We'll try a probability exercise.
Page 48...
What are you doing, Enzo?
- I'm leaving. - Sit down.
Go and sit down.
Sit down right now.
Let us work now.
Shut your mouth.
- You don't do that. - Spare the comments.
Sit down, shut up and listen.
Exercise 38. Who'll come up and do it?
Bakari.
Go, Bakari!
- Calm down. - Chill, guys.
Write the problem for us.
Follow Bakari's example. He's making great progress.
Thank you.
Stick to one side.
C'mon, let's split.
What the hell?
Alya?
Why're you here?
About that zero. You made me look like shit.
It's not personal. You break the rules, you get zero.
What rules?
The rule on cheating. A basic rule in life.
You'll know next time.
I'll never accept that.
Go home, you shouldn't be here.
Hold on.
I'm here until you change my grade.
Don't order me and let me by.
No way.
- Yes. - No.
This is bad.
What's bad?
You being here.
- Let me by. - Hands off!
You can't touch me.
Don't touch me. You're scared.
It's man to man now.
- What? - Get lost!
Just go home!
Hood and cap, please.
Hurry up.
Good morning.
Go on in.
Thank you.
Dominique, do you have Enzo Manetti's file?
Yes.
Alya Cope's too.
Did he hit you or just threaten you?
No, he didn't touch me.
He was waiting in Fouad's, Mr Medaoui's building
and tried to intimidate me, that's all.
No physical violence?
- Only verbal? - Only verbal.
Alright.
Have you got the girl's file?
Thank you.
Manetti was suspended before?
Three days last year.
That's right.
He's turbulent but was calmer lately.
I had him last year and he's tough.
He was ok with me, but others complained.
I don't know the girl.
Nothing on her?
Not since she arrived in September.
I have her. She's ok.
So what do we do?
That's Mr Barrois's decision.
As it didn't happen
in school, you can file a complaint
or we do a disciplinary hearing, but...
that's...
That's what?
Heavy for everyone and bad for the students.
You're saying there's no solution?
We can consider lightweight punishment.
A warning, hours in detention or a temporary suspension.
Think it over and let me know.
So it's up to us?
Exactly.
Alright.
Baderos doesn't want a hearing
that's reported to the board.
He's worried about his school
and his career.
It's all about ranking.
He won't go to the cops.
No, not the cops.
So what measures do we take?
We have a kid who crossed the line.
He was at his place.
But you know hearings.
I've done five. What's the goal of a hearing?
- Expulsion. - Not always.
After that, the kid's lost.
So what do we do?
You heard what he said.
Did he attack you or not?
Well, yes.
But it wasn't that violent.
In that case, what can I say?
Calm down. Sit.
I'm not mad. Can I get mayonnaise?
Meriem, there's another solution.
We ask for a hearing
with expulsion, but with a reprieve.
A reprieve? No way.
Not bad.
That gives him a chance.
A reprieve, with tutoring by another student in his year
and a new class.
That has never worked.
It worked for us.
I'm against a reprieve.
I don't want him in my class.
A new school or he stays put. I filed 15 reports last year.
15?
He called me a "mayonnaise merguez".
A "mayonnaise merguez"?
Three days suspended.
He deserved it.
With me and a reprieve, he'll blow a fuse.
If you want to make him blow a fuse, we're making headway.
Cut it you, you're both different.
Nothing marks you, Fouad.
Nothing marks me?
I've nothing against him, he was pretty calm in class, but...
I've nothing against him,
but he went too far.
- Seriously? - Sorry.
Ever had trouble with him?
Of course.
Like with lots of students. He can be uncontrollable.
We signed up for tough cases.
I didn't.
- You did. - They're never perfect.
He attacked him at his place.
If he's expelled, his reputation will be shot.
No.
How can a hearing help him?
It'll be a lesson and show him the limits for once.
After Benjamin, it'll be someone else.
Enzo needs to be slowed down.
Meriem, you know
he'll be screwed if we expel him.
- Not at all. - It's true! Look at us.
- We're washing our hands of him. - No! We give him a framework.
Where will a hearing get him?
He'll be expelled.
- Not necessarily. - You know he will be.
You know how a hearing works.
It's not a discussion.
The parents will be facing teachers who know how the codes work.
He'll be expelled if we want, regardless of them.
And he'll just take it.
So what do you want to do?
I made fun of them in front of the others
and I shouldn't have.
The humiliation led to it, not the zero grade.
I don't want him expelled for that.
I won't do anything.
Where're you going?
To see my son.
Good morning.
Stand up.
A quick word.
Sit down.
That altercation... I saw the boy's parents.
He says you hit him.
Did you?
Or jostle him?
As he was blocking my path, maybe I jostled him to get by.
You pushed him?
No, no, I... Well...
He was stopping me from going up.
Yes, I pushed him a bit.
He hit the bannister.
That doesn't help. I prefer a hearing in that case.
Thanks, but I don't want that.
I'm informing you.
That's all.
I'm not happy about it,
but it's the best way to protect you.
You can go back now.
On the list,
you have everything they need to bring.
From personal medication to the number of socks,
swimsuits, toothpaste, etc.
We're restricted luggage-wise.
We're restricted, as he says.
Luggage-wise.
Luggage-wise, yes.
We'll have two surf instructors and the teachers here.
Mr Amara and myself, whom you already know.
Mr Etxeberrai...
I think you all know him very well.
Like your parents, grandparents...
Mrs Balian, maths.
Mr Barrois, maths too.
Mrs Delezia, earth sciences,
and Mr Perez, history-geography.
With Mr Perez,
we have a big project
on conservation.
We'll call it
Operation Clean Beach.
Any questions,
we'll be just outside after.
Thank you.
I'll do the rock'n'roll side of the trip.
Mr Medaoui, English, will also be with us.
Do we send a gift to the host families?
It's on the sheet.
The back.
It's on the sheet.
We mentioned it earlier.
A small gift per child and per family.
Is wine ok?
- No. - Certainly not.
However,
cannabis and hard drugs are fine.
We'll have a contact on site.
Ask the cleaners.
Mr Medaoui
is, of course, joking.
- We'll stop now. - Too risky.
Have a good evening.
If you have questions,
you can drop them off.
You can go online too.
Thank you. Good evening.
Thank you, everyone.
Questions on Clean Beach?
Are you ok?
I'm ok. I'm beat.
It's wild. See now?
It's easier with kids.
Sofiane... François...
Right, hello. Good to meet you.
I hear a lot about you.
- Bravo for what you do. - Thanks.
- See you outside? - Ok.
- Can you tidy up? - Sure.
See you tomorrow.
R U OK?
Sleeping at Fouad's?
Answer Let's discuss the hearing
Take the next train
Is that it? 64?
Ok. Now spell out what you wrote.
S...
I...
X..
T...
F...
No, T... Y...
And after that?
O... U...
No, sixty...
S... I...
Focus on sixty first of all.
S.. I... X... T...
Y.
Ok? And the four.
F...
O...
R.
No, four.
We've written it fifteen times already.
You practiced this morning. O... U...
Shit!
Focus and start again, please!
Come on.
Sorry I yelled.
Forgive me, it's my fault.
I'll do it with you.
S... I... X..
Shit...
Yes?
We said 8 pm.
Sorry, I didn't see the time.
Ok, we'll be right down.
It's Dad, sweetheart.
Let's go down.
Get your jacket.
- Are you ready? - Yes.
- I see you in how many sleeps? - Two.
I'll miss you.
Got many more to do?
Twenty or so.
Come to bed. Finish tomorrow.
No, I was due to give it back a week ago.
What's it on?
Barbusse's Under Fire. The poor kids.
What? It's World War One, the trenches. It's depressing. So?
Tell me what's wrong.
- You want to know? - Yes.
You're right.
My lessons are boring and depressing,
the kids are bored and I bore myself.
There are more serious things.
Come to bed.
It's not serious for you?
No. It's not true.
You always fear boring them.
It's different.
I can tell. I'm old, I'm boring.
They're bored stiff
and I'm bored stiff too.
And you want me to accept that?
You realize what...
Fingertips only.
I can hear your palms!
It should be almost silent.
See, no noise.
For this exercise, stay under the ball.
Thanks, some are listening.
Form pairs. Cover the court.
One ball per group, ok?
Get going.
- Thanks. - What's next?
Badminton.
Need a hand?
Not really. Just to clear the tables and courts.
I'm pregnant.
That's cool.
Congratulations.
Thanks.
We worked on the passes so use them!
One ball per court.
Bring back the extra balls, please.
Let's change teams.
- Hello, everyone. - Hello.
I'd first like to say
that this hearing proves we have failed as educators.
I'll read the facts, then each one can speak in turn.
Alright?
The incident occurred on March 2, 2022, at 5:50 pm.
Enzo Manetti and Alya Cope waited for their teacher Mr Barrois
in the lobby of his building.
When he arrived, one of the students stepped forward to question him
about the grade given for homework returned that day.
He was insolent and threatening with his teacher.
Enzo Manetti violently prevented him from going upstairs,
but left the scene shortly after.
- Do you agree? - Yes.
In relation to the zero he gave me,
I didn't like being humiliated in front of all my classmates.
They laughed at me.
So I went
to talk to him on the stairs like you said.
That justifies threatening a teacher?
Introduce yourself.
Mr Obéga, the PTA rep.
So that justifies threatening a teacher?
He pushed me.
How do you mean?
He was in a hurry, he saw me and pushed me out of his way.
Did you push him?
He was preventing me from entering my apartment, so I did.
Do you wish to add anything?
I know things were bad last year,
but I think it's better now.
But what happened
is typical of Enzo's behaviour.
In other words, he threatens a teacher,
then refuses to own up.
Understand? That has to stop.
For his sake too.
Enzo, I've taught you two years now.
The problem is, your behaviour isn't improving but getting worse.
It's hard to communicate and work with you.
Why such resistance?
Outside school, I have big problems.
Ok, what problems?
I can't tell you.
If you don't tell us now...
This is the place to do that.
I can't.
If you don't, we can't help you.
Katia, as educational assistant, do you have details
about Enzo's behaviour?
Well, I'd say
it's worse and worse.
There are frequent threats
and extreme aggressiveness.
So, for us, he's out of control.
I'm the students' representative.
It's true that the students have a lot of problems
with Enzo's verbal and occasionally physical attacks
within the school.
We need to specify
Enzo's home situation.
His parents are parted and he lives with his mother.
Anything to add?
Yes, I confirm what was just said.
Enzo isn't malicious.
He has plenty of capacities.
I spoke to Mr and Mrs Manetti.
Despite their separation, he has never lacked affection.
Maybe he'll confide in a third party.
Anything else to add?
Frankly, we talk with him a lot,
but he doesn't listen.
I don't know why.
Listening to you, I feel there are two Enzos.
It's not the Enzo we know.
I'm gutted. I don't know what to do or say.
I'm floored.
Alright. Sir, do you wish to say something?
When he gets home,
he's always in a bad mood.
- Why? - It's too tough.
That covers it. Everyone has spoken.
We can deliberate now.
I'd just like to say
one last thing.
I feel partly responsible for what happened.
I didn't defuse the conflict when Enzo was insolent to me.
It's my first post, I reacted the wrong way.
That's why I feel
that expelling him
would be excessive.
Thank you.
Thank you, Mr Barrois. We'll begin our deliberations.
Does he have a leisure activity?
Yes, soccer.
- Is he good? - Very gifted.
That's a pity.
The envelopes, please.
I'll do the count.
Expulsion.
Reprieve.
Expulsion.
Suspension.
Expulsion.
Reprieve.
Expulsion.
Bring everyone back in.
The hearing has decided to expel Enzo.
You have eight days
to appeal this decision with the board.
As he isn't yet 16 and is still in obligatory education,
the board will tell you as soon as possible
the name of his new school.
I hope this will make you change.
Do you have anything to add?
Yes.
I'm really, really sorry
and hope you'll accept my apologies.
Sorry, sir.
The hearing is over.
Thank you for coming.
- Where're you going? - The station.
Get in.
No, there's water in it. I checked.
I don't know, on the left.
Yes.
We'll be waiting.
I don't get it.
What you're feeling after the hearing...
Weakness, failure, injustice, whatever...
It happens all the time in this job.
- It was a vocation for you? - No.
It never is at first.
It comes when you fit in and are happy in a school.
At your age,
I dropped out to surf in Biarritz.
I did medicine to please my father and failed.
So I started studying science
without knowing why and began a physics thesis.
Now I'm a teacher and got a kid expelled.
Where do I fit in?
Paddle on the wave!
It hits the back of the board.
Press down! Stand up!
Stare straight ahead, knees bent!
The waves are pretty big.
They'll carry us
in that direction.
Go, Sofiane!
This rope here. Vegetal fibre.
Who wants it?
Great, a Camembert box.
Recyclable too.
Don't play with the claws!
- Can you see without specs? - Just the board.
Those waves are big.
No, the conditions are perfect, like in Biarritz.
Come out! It's risky!
Come out, everyone!
I'll do the yellows.
Yellow group and red.
We have 12 orange.
We're good.
Where's Sofiane?
Was Mr Amara with you?
Which group was his?
He was with me, but went to get a group that drifted.
I didn't see him.
Sure you saw him?
Sofiane!
Try to raise your arm.
That hurts.
Try to reach behind your neck.
I can't.
Ok, it's the rotator cuff.
I'll do a quick scan.
How did you do it?
Surfing. Like an idiot, I made a false move.
Why surfing? Don't you teach maths?
And your thesis?
On stand-by. I'm too busy to work on it.
I understand.
Math lessons, plus surfing, that's a lot.
You'll drop your thesis?
I don't know.
Dumb idea.
With classes, corrections and so on, I don't have the time.
You'll teach all your life like your mum?
Why not? She never complained.
I never said that.
She could just have done better, like you.
I push you like I pushed your sister
and she's doing well.
I advise you.
Then it's up to you.
Take my advice or just brush it aside.
I think I'll do that.
Why not do dietary consultations?
Seriously?
I have young mothers who can't lose weight.
It's clearly a torn rotator cuff.
Here, wipe yourself.
I'll prescribe ibuprofen
and a bit of physio.
Dietary consultations would take up half a day a week.
35 euros each time, 1,500 a month,
while you do your thesis.
- Well? - The pain's gone.
- What? - The pain in my shoulder.
No need for physio, the scan must have cured it.
I'm off.
Thanks. I'll let you work.
- Where? - Just there.
- Here? - There.
I see.
- When did you last clean? - Yesterday.
- Was there anything? - Nothing.
Can you read the signature?
PK.
- You read PK? - Yes, PK.
Alright. Thank you.
It's Jean-Luc.
I need a list of students with the initials PK or DK.
P for Patrick, D for Dominique, K for Karim. It's urgent.
Surname and first name or vice versa.
It's worth taking a close look.
Come in.
Surname, first name, and vice versa.
I know we have 500 students.
Call me if you find anything.
Thank you.
Let's see...
I have something for you.
From the education board.
Your transfer has been accepted.
After three years,
you must be pleased.
Yes.
Well, everything
will be simpler for me.
I'll be closer to my son.
In any case,
they'll be lucky to have you.
We may not get someone as good to replace you.
Excuse me, we may have the graffiti writer.
I'm coming. You'll tell the others?
Yes, I'll do that.
They're going to miss you.
And so will we.
Right, I'm off.
Why're you here?
I don't know.
You're in the dark, you didn't go up?
I saw a girl go in so I hid.
You're a real kid.
That's my sister.
Coming up for a drink?
I won't disturb you. I came to check up on you.
I'm ok.
I'll come up.
- Ok. - I'm in no hurry.
"In three years, she had fulfilled
just one of her dreams.
She had bought a clock. But even this clock,
made of rosewood with twined
columns
and a brass pendulum,
was being paid for over a year
in weekly instalments."
Antoine?
Can you sit up, please?
"She got upset..."
Read
chapters 10 and 11 at home.
Antoine...
Can you wait a second?
I need to talk to you.
Goodbye, sir.
Are you ok?
Yes. Why?
You never take part anymore.
Maybe I'm a bit bored this year.
You're bored this year?
L'Assommoir
is a bit boring.
No.
It's not boring at all.
I try to provide perspective, a context,
and relate the book to the modern world.
You don't get that?
Not really.
Maybe you prefer video games and friends
to literature this year?
I like reading.
What are you reading?
A book by Romain Gary.
Promise at Dawn.
- I like it. - It's good.
That's good. Romain Gary is good.
Ok, off you go.
Shall I close the door?
Yes.
She's right. The cheaters who remember the answer
get good grades for doing that.
Humane, pedagogical and effective.
Cheers.
In technology,
if they turn up, I've won.
Pierre!
Happy birthday.
Thank you.
Happy birthday.
A quick kiss.
Happy birthday, Pierre.
Happy birthday, man.
Hello?
Thank you.
We want fries!
Come in.
Hello.
Mrs Delezia, have a seat.
Mrs Perez?
Yes...
I'm Hugo's history teacher.
We had a problem today. With Frédéric, our counsellor,
we found Hugo
rather drunk in a corridor.
So we called you.
Half vodka, half pineapple juice.
I hate apple juice.
Think it's normal?
Drinking at school at 16 isn't normal.
We need to react.
Can we go?
Yes.
Do you mind if I eat with you?
No.
Quiet now.
Look at the anatomical figure.
What is a hormone?
A hormone is a substance...
We don't work on the last day, ma'am!
Quiet, please.
It's no fun for me either.
A hormone is a substance produced by a gland...
Ma'am, we don't work today.
Alright.
Fine, I'll do a test that counts for the exam.
Are you nuts?
Get your things out.
Come on, do it.
Give me your report book.
No way.
- Your report book. - No, what is this?
- Your report book! - No way!
Hands off my bag!
Wassup?
Give me your report book!
Right now!
Gimme my bag!
Give me the report book!
Gimme my bag. Wassup?
- Give it to me. - Let go.
Let go!
Gimme my bag.
Let go.
Stay here.
Stay here!
Sit back down!
I'm splitting too.
Abdelkrim, sit down!
Sit back down!
No one leaves this room!
No one leaves this room.
- Hasn't she come out? - No.
Sandrine, please.
Open the door.
Mrs Delezia, it's Mr Baderos.
Fetch a double.
I'll check if we have one.
It's Meriem.
Can you hear me?
She's with class 9B.
Hear me? Open the door.
We're here for you.
Mrs Delezia, it's Mr Baderos.
Everything ok?
Mrs Balian, let me handle it, please.
Mrs Delezia,
class is over.
Children... Evan...
Where are the keys?
In her hand.
Stand up, Evan. Stand up.
Trust me.
Take the key gently now.
She slapped me.
Slapped my face.
Come on.
Come on. Breathe.
It's nothing.
It's ok.
Come on.
Let's get your things.
Leave quietly and take your things with you.
Fouad...
An emergency.
You should've gone before.
- I did. - What?
I went.
A tiny bladder.
Queen Elizabeth!
- Zorro! - D'Artagnan!
An astronaut!
Go on, type "Thales's theorem".
There's a teacher following me.
He's gonna knock soon.
You have to help me.
It's maths, I don't get it.
What's going on?
Know stuff on triangles?
How come you don't?
Open the door now!
Check the Net, man.
Malcolm, open the door now!
What the hell?
You fell for it?
I don't even have a phone.
No, I didn't.
You did.
A little.
We can joke too.
Five, four, three,
two, one!
Have a good summer!
Take care. Bye, boys.
- Have a good summer. - See you next year.
Goodbye.
I spent a while in Brittany.
Had a good summer?
Too short, huh?
I have great ideas for this year.
One month to go.
- A boy or a girl? - I don't know.
Look at him.
- Wow! - Pierre!
The jacket and the works.
How's it going? Ok?
The door's opening.
The Men in Black.
Such enthusiasm.
We've missed you.
Mr Amara...
- How are you? - Fine. Had a good summer?
Yes.
After you.
Please.
Mr Etxeberrai.
- Good summer? - Wonderful.
In Biarritz.
Hello, welcome back.
Welcome back.
Mr Delezia, how are you?
Welcome back.
Hello.
Had a good rest?
Yes.
Ok, Christophe?
Want a coffee?
No, I'm ok, thanks.
When do you start?
10. I need to move.
- Is it far? - There's worse.
Bus 128
then train line B for 25 minutes,
change at St Michel,
line C to Brétigny-sur-Orge,
then a bus and a 10-minute walk.
Seriously?
No.
No, it's direct with bus 460.
35 minutes door to door.
Ok, I'm going.
Want one last word of advice?
Go on.
Whatever happens,
don't swap hours with older teachers.
They'll screw you over.
First home makes pasta.
Yeah.
