Contents
P OST-WAR plans for the reshaping of the school system in France have succeeded and superseded each other with confusing rapidity. They reflect the vigorous attempts of intelligent Frenchmen to construct an educational system that will be adequate for the resurgent, industrial, prosperous, democratic country whose mission as a model of civilization and enlightenment they still proclaim. Of the many measures drafted the most fascinating are the bill submitted in 1957 to the National Assembly by M. Billres, the reforms effected in January 1959 by the decree of General de Gaulle and M. Berthoin, the Law of 31st December 1959 according official status and State subventions to private (Catholic) schools, and the administrative reforms carried out in 1960 within the Ministry of National Education.
These measures had some effect upon each other. The reforms of January 1959 were inevitably weighed in the balance against the 1957 bill which the National Assembly did not enact. Control over the observation cycle instituted by decree in January 1959 and over the granting of status to private schools under the Law of 31st December 1959 necessitated the creation of new functions within the Ministry of National Education and hastened the partial reform of its internal structure. Nevertheless, these measures are not considered here in their chronological order. Our purpose is rather the analysis and identification of forces at work than the record of events as they occurred, for the effect of the measures upon each other was slight compared with the larger economic and social pressures compelling or resisting change.
Despite the measures taken, dissatisfaction with the school system, its syllabuses and its methods continues to be felt acutely and is aggravated by the educational explosion of rapidly increasing numbers of pupils. The principles of reform have been lengthily debated by the various professional, social, political and religious groups in France. The resulting legislation has brought about changes with which nobody is content. Each group watches anxiously lest its opponents derive greater benefit and unexpected advantage from the application of the legal texts, and hopes for a chance to revive its own unrealized projects.
My own view is that these changes are uncomfortable compromises and that the dynamic of reform cannot be halted for long. I have tried not to let this judgement become obtrusive. It should be possible for readers to reach their own conclusions about the lessons to be learned from studying the social obstacles that stand in the way of the radical reform of a traditional, respected, but in important respects outmoded educational service. A major purpose of this book has been to allow the various protagonists to speak for themselves. Much of the text is, therefore, original French documentary material translated and presented with a minimum of comment, so that the English-speaking student of French affairs can sense for himself the sharpness of French argument. Such assessment of the forces shaping French social and educational policies as I have attempted has been undertaken in order to shed light on the process of debate and reform in France, rather than to encourage the taking of sides.
