5. ¤The field of education is governed by fundamental principles, some of
which are formulated in the Constitution of the Republic, others by law.
All regulatory texts concerning education are brought together in the
Education Code.
The main principles of the education system
¤The French educational system is based on great principles, some
inspired by the Revolution of 1789, laws passed between 1881 and 1889
and under the Fourth and Fifth Republics as well as the Constitution of
October 4, 1958: "the organization of compulsory and free public
education at all levels is a duty of the State ".
¤The freedom of education: In France, the public educational service
coexists with private institutions, subject to state control and can benefit
from its assistance (in exchange for a contract signed with the State).
The freedom to organize and provide education is a manifestation of the
freedom of expression: it is defined by the "Debré bill" n ° 59-1557 of
December 31, 1959 on the freedom of teaching and the relations with the
private education.
The founding texts of the education system
6. ¤Free: Education provided in schools and public institutions is free.
¤Neutrality: Public education is neutral: philosophical and political neutrality is
essential for teachers and students.
¤Secularism: The principle of secularism in religious matters is at the foundation
of the French education system since the end of the 19th century. Public education
is secular since the Bill of March 28, 1882 and October 30, 1886. They introduce
the obligation of education and the secularism of staff and programs.
¤Respect for the beliefs of students and their parents implies:
- lack of religious instruction in programs
-the secularism of the staff
-Prohibition of proselytism
¤Obligation to attend school: Since the Jules Ferry Bill of March 28, 1882,
education is compulsory. This obligation applies from 6 years, for all French
children or foreigners residing in France. It has been extended until the age of 16.
The family has two possibilities
-School in a public or private school
- provide instruction to the children themselves (with prior declaration)
7. The refoundation Bill
The law of orientation and programming for the refoundation of the school of the Republic of 8 July 2013 gives
priority to the primary school which allows to build the fundamental learning.
The primary objective is to make school more fair and more effective, to reduce inequalities by providing greater
support to the most vulnerable school populations.
The knowledge acquired by pupils and the skills they develop during compulsory schooling constitute a common
school culture. The common foundation of knowledge, skills and culture identifies these elements and organizes
them into areas and objectives. The evaluation of their mastery must be done in parallel with their acquisition,
progressively during elementary school and college. The student's unique school record allows for a follow-up of
his achievements and his progress.
The objectives of elementary school training
The training provided in elementary schools ensures the acquisition of fundamental instruments of knowledge:
oral and written expression, reading, calculation and problem solving.
Furthermore,
-it encourages the development of intelligence, artistic sensitivity, manual, physical and sports skills;
- it provides the elements of a historical, geographical, scientific and technical culture;
- it offers an education in visual arts and musical arts;
- it teaches a foreign language and may include an introduction to linguistic diversity;
- it also contributes to the understanding and autonomous and responsible use of the media, particularly digital
media;
- it ensures the acquisition and understanding of the requirement of respect for the person, its origins and its
differences;
- it also conveys the need for respect for the rights of the child and equality between women and men.
-It ensures together with the family moral and civic education which includes, to allow the exercise of citizenship,
learning values and symbols of the Republic and the European Union, including the national anthem and its history.

20. Teaching time
The weekly hours of elementary school are spread over 24 hours. The school year has 864 teaching hours.
The schedules assigned to the various disciplinary fields come into effect as of the start of the school year
2016. They are specified in the decree of November 9, 2015 (BO of November 26, 2015).

22. In primary schools, there are 9 grades, made up of 3 cycles :
Cycle II:
CP 1rst grade

Teaching cycles
The organization by cycles of teaching makes it possible to take into account the progressiveness of
learning and the needs of students to support them in the acquisition of skills.
The number and duration of cycles throughout compulsory education have been redefined. The
nursery school is since the start of 2014, a cycle in itself. The creation of a cycle associating the two last
classes of the elementary school and the sixth grade must favor a better educational continuity
between the school and the college.
23. There is a goal at the end of each cycle
Cycle I
Early learning
First approach of the basic
tools of knowledge, prepares
basic learning, learns the
principles of good citizenship
Cycle II:
Fundamental learning
cycle:
All the teachings examine the
world. Proficiency in Languages,
especially French language, is the
priority
Cycle III:
Consolidation cycle:
Teachings stabilize the cycle II
learnings.
The oral language is developed
and is important in helping the
student become autonomous.
Cycle III allows a better transition
to middle school.
24. Cycle I
Fundamental place of the nursery school as a first step to guarantee the success of all students
• Fosters the development of the personality of the children
• Stimulates their sensorial, motor control, cognitive and social development
• Develops self esteem and positive relationship with others
• Helps their emotional development
• Develops in each child the desire and the pleasure to learn to become an adult
Five fields of learning
• To learn the different aspects of the language
• Act, express oneself, understand through physical activities
• Act, express oneself, understand through artistic activities
• Build the first tools to structure one's thought
• Explore the world.
25. Essential contributions in
different teaching in common
ground:
-French
-Modern language
-Artistic teaching
-Physical and sportive education
-Moral and civic education
-Wonder about the world
-Mathematics
This is common ground of knowledge and
culture:
-Methods and tools to learn
-Person and citizen formation
-Languages to think and communicate
-Natural and technical systems
-World representations and human activity
The acquired knowledge and competences that students develop during their schooling constitute a
common core culture. This common ground identifies certain competences and knowledge, organizing them
into domains and goals. Their evaluations are done throughout the year.
There are five domains that give a global vision of the program objectives for elementary and middle school.
The acquired knowledge and competences of the common core culture are learned progressively through
three cycles of elementary and middle school.
Education helps in the acquisition of these common core competences.
The school system works by common grounds
Cycle II & Cycle III
26. The common ground
All courses contribute to the acquisition of the common foundation
of knowledge, skills and culture.
Special lessons:
• renewed moral and civic education;
• the implementation of an artistic and cultural education course, a
citizen course and a health course;
• modern language teaching extended to the preparatory class;
• environmental education with an interdisciplinary dimension;
• science and technology education based on proven pedagogical
practices;
• the development of digital uses in pedagogical methods and the
construction of knowledge.

50. Catholic Education
2 million pupils
8000 schools
17 % of pupils in primary and secondary education
The catholic education is supervised the French Catholic Church. In each
department, the schools are under the control of the diocesan bodies which are
under the authority of the Bishops. About 17 % are linked to religious
congregations.
95 % of the schools of the catholic education have a contract of association with
the State. This contract created in 1959 gives the schools a public mission of
education provided they respect the curriculum and the rules of the organization
of school curricula set by the ministry of Education. The teachers are paid by the
Ministry of Education. The catholic schools are attended by all the children
indiscriminately of their origin, opinion and creed.
The resources of the schools come, on one hand, from the state and, on the other
hand, from the parents.
