The “Common core of Skills, Knowledge and Culture” presents what each student should know and master by the end of the compulsory schooling. There are five areas of skills that are assessed and need to be validated to obtain the “DiplĂŽme National du Brevet”.
During their schooling, secondary school pupils are required to follow four educational pathways: the âparcours Avenirâ( personal Project for the future), âparcours citoyenâ ( Citizenship Pathway) , âparcours artistique et culturelâ (the Artistic and Cultural Pathway) and âparcours santĂ©â ( Health Pathway).
The aim of these pathways is to help pupils reflect on themselves, their relationship with others and the rest of the world. They contribute to helping them become enlightened people, educated in choice and the construction of a critical mind, aware of the major challenges of tomorrow’s world.
Each year, they result in a programme of actions and projects carried out by teachers, educational and health staff.
