“By the Koran of Mecca, I will call my brothers to behead you”. Threats against a teacher: MP Aymeric Caron stands up for the pupil at the request of her family and protests to the French school inspectorate

Aymeric Caron

The incident took place at a school in Paris. In mid-March, ten-year-old A. is said to have made a distinctive threat to his teacher: “By the Koran of Mecca, I will call my brothers to behead you.” He had just been punished for taking part in a fight. He was first transferred to another class and then to another school. At the family’s request, Aymeric Caron contacted the school inspectorate to protest. These comments were never made, the MP from Paris assured us.

Aymeric Caron obviously has problems with primary schools. In September 2023, he was accused of breaking down the gates of his daughter’s school in Versailles to accompany her to her classroom, which was forbidden by school regulations. At the time, he had complained of “political exploitation”.

This time, the new incident took place in Paris, in a school in Rue Championnet (18th arrondissement, Aymeric Caron’s constituency), where a pupil had threatened to kill a teacher. According to the Ministry of Education, Aymeric Caron overstepped his role as a member of parliament by intervening in this matter.

The school stands united behind the shocked teacher. The newly re-elected MP, on the other hand, claims that the threat was exaggerated, relying solely on the statements of the child’s mother and a parents’ representative, who speak of “discrimination” and even “racism” on the part of the Ministry of Education. Two completely contradictory versions.
