Three cycles of three years
Unlike the French habits, these school programs are divided into three-year cycles: from CP to CE2 (Cycle 2), the CM1 to 6 (Cycle 3) and the 5th to 3rd (Cycle 4). Cycle 1 includes kindergarten classes and will be implemented from September 2015. The new curriculum will come into force in September 2016 for the first year of each cycle -either a year behind the initial project. It must now be linked “with the common core of knowledge, skills and culture,” which defines what every student should have acquired at age 16 at the end of compulsory schooling.
The program projects obtained and posted by the specialized site Pedagogical Café, leave teachers “appreciate how best achieve the objectives (…) based on actual situations they face in the daily exercise of their profession. ” For learning assessment, project detail ‘expected end of cycle “, ie skills and knowledge to master after three years. But they leave the school professionals the freedom to “find the most appropriate arrangements in exercising their individual and collective expertise.”
The document states that will be provided “accompanying documents without regulatory or prescriptive value, and continuing education” to assist in the implementation of future programs.
Cycle 2: Focus on French
Cycle 2 (from CP to CE2) priority for a “mastery of language and particularly the French language.” Language is “a tool for all learning cycle,” the Supreme Council of the programs. The versatility of the elementary school teachers used to emphasize “the cross, with regular feedback on basic skills.” More concretely, “reading activities and writing words, sentences are daily and permanent relations between them”.
The computer coding also entered into programs: “From the EC1, students may encode movements using a suitable programming software, which will bring the end of CE2 understanding and production of simple algorithms. ”
Cycle 3: Ensuring High School Transition
The next cycle connects the last two years of primary to the first year of the college and its mission to “strengthen basic skills” engaged in the previous cycle, and “allow a better transition from school to college,” the 6th grade with a pivot function in this device.
The language proficiency “remains a central objective” to ensure students’ sufficient autonomy in reading and writing to address “the following classes. In mathematics, this cycle continues construction integers and begin the knowledge of fractions and decimals.
Also planned the study of documentary sources, information search and analysis of information found on the internet.
Round 4: Create a climate of trust
4 cycle continues construction of learning and skills. The CSP highlights the need to “create a climate of trust” in which students “can question without fear and fear disappears to do evil,” thus implicitly responding to criticism leveled at French schools.
These projects will be amended according to the opinions and proposals expressed during the consultation of teachers, for adoption in September 2015.
The current curriculum, dating from 2008, were criticized by teachers, as judged encyclopedic, impossible to carrying out in the time and designed independently of each other in different subjects.
