Overview
- The administrative inquiry concluded that support for Caroline Grandjean fell short, citing decisions experienced as injustices, including the refusal of an RQTH-linked points bonus that deprived her of needed recognition.
- The ministry announced it will strengthen training for managers on psychological distress and handle human-resources processes with greater humanity and discernment.
- Grandjean, 42, died by suicide on September 1, 2025, after nearly two years of homophobic harassment in Moussages, where slurs were found on school walls.
- A judicial probe into the graffiti and threats was closed in March 2025 for lack of new facts, and the perpetrators were never identified.
- Her spouse, Christine Grandjean-Paccoud, welcomed acknowledgment of institutional failure but lamented the absence of named individuals and has filed a harassment complaint targeting the Education Ministry and the village mayor; unions S2DE and Snuipp-FSU pointed to long-noted HR shortcomings.
