work contracts

Alternation can be associated with a contract with specific work, that is to say:

A law of 1984 (known as law Rocard) makes it possible the rural Family home to implement education according to " a rate/rhythm approprié". They are only in this case there in France.

• 1 week, 1 week;
• 2 months, 2 months
• 6 months, 6 months.
