Replacement of bilingual teachers

One of the main issues encountered in the bilingual classess of the public schools is the replacement of the bilingual teachers absent (disease, maternity). Generally the solution adopted by the administration is the replacement of the bilingual teacher by not-Breton-speaking, which is equivalent to the stop of the teaching of Breton in the bilingual classes, which are not it any more. Thus certain bilingual classes did not have bilingual teaching during whole school years.
