Closure of Sorbonne’s Psychomotor Training Program Faces Backlash
Sorbonne Université is set to reduce openings in its psychomotor training program due to lack of state funding, leading to a potential shortage of professionals in France. Currently, 35 spots will be eliminated next academic year, with projections indicating only 40 remaining in four years. Students and faculty express concern over the impact on the healthcare sector, particularly for children and patients with neurodevelopmental disorders. An online petition has garnered nearly 28,000 signatures in opposition to the closure.
