“Assumed selection” or “total absence” of sorting: behind the suppression of Parcoursup, the thorny debate on access to university

The Minister of Higher Education Philippe Baptiste announced the replacement of Parcoursup from the start of the 2027 school year, without specifying the replacement system. Student and high school unions are demanding its outright abolition and the creation of 150,000 to 250,000 additional places, while the government has only opened 15,000. The debate in the National Assembly took place on October 28 without a vote.
