A N N E X E
CAHIER DES CHARGES
DE LA FORMATION DES MAÎTRES


All eyes turn to school today, so the sharing of knowledge is essential in the construction of a society based on the principle of republican equality, including equality of opportunity, recognition of individual merits and the desire to succeed all students. The school is also the place of the formation of the citizen where a common culture is built to live together.
A teacher must master the knowledge that corresponds to the disciplines he has to teach. This entails a solid disciplinary training that he essentially receives at the university. It must also gradually become familiar with how these knowledge can be transmitted to students in the context of the common foundation of knowledge and skills and teaching programs: what are the key points? How do you articulate them? He must learn about the practice of his future profession: how to organize his class? How to adapt its pedagogy to the diversity of students? How to assess the work of each student? He must discover the setting of the school or establishment: how to work as a team? How do I register its action in a collective project? Finally, he must know the world around him, the world of work and society: how to understand the diversity of social and economic contexts and the educational realities that arise from it? How do I open its teaching and teaching on the outside? How do we meet the expectations of parents who entrust their children to the public service of national education?
France is committed to the construction of the European space of higher education (1). The training of teachers takes into account this national objective by providing lessons to enable the mobility of teachers in Europe.
All of these necessities can only be taken into account in a system of training masters alternately, allowing interaction between theoretical and practical approaches, which associates the university, now responsible for teacher training, and educational institutions. This is the whole meaning of the Guidance and Program Law for the Future of the School of April 23, 2005, which incorporates the university institutes of teacher training (IUFM) in universities: the legislator wanted the professional skills of the professors to be built in the duration - from basic disciplinary training to adaptation to the first job - and that vocational training is designed on the principle of alternation.

(1) As part of the Lisbon Strategy and the Bologna Process.


1. FORMER
FOR THE PUBLIC NATIONAL EDUCATION SERVICE


The formation of masters is an eminent responsibility that the Republican State has just entrusted to universities. It is up to it to guarantee its quality throughout the national territory.
It is up to each university that integrates a university teacher training institute as an internal school, in partnership with the other universities of the academy, to develop a training plan in accordance with the obligations set out in the terms of reference, that is, that allows to build the professional skills required today by any teacher.
The integration of IUFM in universities allows, by conventions between partner universities, to mobilize all the necessary contributions to implement the master's training plan: in the field of the disciplines taught, but also in the field of cognitive sciences or law, etc.


1.1. Training in a profession: preparing for a mission


Teaching is a profession that learns. Leading and learning, leading a class and individualizing its teaching, demanding efforts and giving confidence, raising interest, assessing skills and learning talents, helping to guide. All this requires an initial and continuous in-depth training: nothing should be left to the hazards of the educational vocation or professional chance.
All in the profession of teacher, the knowledge provided, the method chosen as the attention to the students, results from rigorous and progressive learning. Regardless of its previous course, and whatever its place of practice, a teacher must have gained full consciousness that it is the progress and results of the students who give meaning to his action and function.
Teaching as part of the public service of national education is a mission: the task of training young people who are entrusted to the school, which implies a good mastery of all the necessary skills at the required level; mission of education according to the republican values, which implies a precise knowledge of the principles, the laws that translate them, but also exemplary behavior in the exercise of the functions; mission to contribute to the social and professional integration of students, which implies the ability to promote the cultural opening of students and a good knowledge of the economic and social environment of the school.
At the end of his initial vocational training, an intern professor must understand that the titularization, an expression of the trust that the school institution places in him, constitutes a commitment and responsibility that gives meaning to the educational freedom that the law recognizes.


1.2. A common national framework for teacher training
Clear references for students
and Teacher Training Partners


The terms of reference for teacher training define the course of training that will be to be followed by students in the profession of teacher.
He specifies the skills to build to develop the necessary knowledge, to implement them, to develop his strength of belief, to focus on students a positive look, to give them the desire to learn and the possibility of assimilating common values.
It sets references to respect the different partners of the initial training:
- universities that have integrated an IUFM (or unintegrated IUFM) that will have to prepare the initial training plans adapted to the students and professors in the course of which they are responsible;
- schools, colleges and high schools that will host teacher trainees or new holders;
- representatives of the school institution that will certify the acquisition of essential skills;
- the commission entrusted by the State of the evaluation of the quality of the training plans developed by the universities responsible for the training of masters or by the IUFM not yet integrated.


Vocational training plans
of masters meet national characteristics


In addition to the elements specified in articles 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7, master's training plans meet the following characteristics:
The training begins on the date of the re-entry of teachers in schools, colleges and high schools so that the teacher trainees can participate in the activities of pre-release in the institution where they carry out their training in responsibility. The professional qualification exam takes place at the end of the school year, after the students' exit.
The training in the IUFM of professors of intern schools corresponds to a minimum hourly volume of 400 hours during the internship year and 50 hours during the first year of exercise as a holder. On this volume, language proficiency skills cannot be built over a period of less than 120 hours (50 hours for first reading and writing learning).
Adapted to the personal profile of the teachers of the interns schools the training is organized around the courses in responsibility: the annual course in responsibility for one day per week in the same class and a three-week internship in each of the other two cycles of the primary school.
The training at the IUFM of college and junior high school teachers corresponds to a minimum hourly volume of 220 hours during the internship year and 50 hours during the first year of exercise as a holder.
The implementation of the terms of reference for teacher training is based on the decree of 11 July 2006 defining the common foundation of knowledge and skills, the decrees defining the teaching programs as well as the circulars, the notes of service and other official texts specifying the educational commitments of the school institution, including education in health and education in the environment for sustainable development with the obligations resulting from the implementation of the Charter.


2. THE PRINCIPLES OF TRAINING
PROFESSIONAL OF MATERIALS
2.1. Vocational training


The national debate on the future of the school led to the development of the orientation and programming law for the future of the school has raised the idea of an extension of the initial vocational training period as well as the idea of a training based on a real alternation designed in the articulation between the responsibility of the teacher in training in an institution and his participation in education units in IUFM. From this idea, the principle of an alternance applied to trainers, teachers of schools, colleges and secondary schools in the IMUFM to maintain a close connection with the teaching in front of students.


The professional training of the masters is carried out
alternately, at university and in schools


Theoretical knowledge disconnected from practice is ineffective in professional training and, symmetrically, situations encountered on the ground by interns professors are only fully training if they are analyzed using conceptual tools and inputs from academic research.
Internships, including the internship in responsibility, are at the heart of the training system: they must be prepared, accompanied, operated by trainers in schools, colleges or high schools associated with trainers of the IFM and university.
The training must, for example, allow teachers to prepare for the teaching they are responsible for: how to build a situation conducive to learning language in a three-year class of children? How to learn to read to a preparatory pupil? How to teach the four operations? How do I approach a particular concept in experimental sciences? How do I take memory issues into account in history teaching, etc?
The training in IUFM must be taken on the academic reality and given according to the professional situations encountered by the teachers: the difficulty of approaching such or such notion, the student's person, the group-class, the learning (process, motivation, difficulties...), the evaluation, the management of conflicts, the fight against violence, the relations with the parents, the orientation and the diversity of the ways of training offered to the students,
The training in IUFM must allow the interns professors to become aware of the specificity of the various cycles, in school, in college and in high school. Thus, for example, language development, in the first learning cycle, and reading learning, in the basic learning cycle, will be taken into account by specific teaching units.
Vocational training must enable young teachers to understand the geography of the school, to know its territories and the principles of organization of priority education.


Teacher training is provided by trainers
in contact with the reality of school, colleges and high schools


All trainers, regardless of their status, teachers-researchers or teachers of the first and second degrees, must justify a direct experience or knowledge of today's classes. They have to work together.
First and second-degree teachers in IUFM are the first to be involved in teaching the teaching of disciplines: their experience of students, class, school or institution must be solid and recognized within the institution. This involves several years of practice in class, but also, school audiences very quickly, a necessary proximity in the time of this experience. The principle of service in shared time, school or institution on the one hand, university on the other, must gradually extend: at least 70% of the first and second degree teachers in IUFM will exercise in shared time.
Trainers who mentor trainees in schools, colleges and high schools are fully involved in teacher training and are associated with the design of training as well as the evaluation of trainees.
A teacher trainer is a qualified teacher to train masters or recognized by the inspection bodies. It is also necessary that he know the basics of adult training, whether open to disciplinary and transverse areas other than the original specialties or specialties, that he know how to conduct a group of professional situations and exercises, or accompany a trainee...
The university will ensure the quality of the trainers: master's teachings or "training of trainers" seminars and research (doctoral) training will be able to contribute to them.


2.2. A training continuum: license, competition,
training in the exercise of the trade


The preparation for the profession of professor is now part of a university curriculum: it begins from the degree course that incorporates elements of professionalization in support of basic disciplinary training; it continues with the year of preparation for the competitions then with the year of professional training. Masters training is completed in the first two years in full responsibility. Thus, the training of masters, like other countries have made the choice, allows the issuance of credits-ECTS (2) and takes place in the master-doctorate course.

(2) European Credit Transfer System: European system of capitalizable and transferable education units, says "European credit system".


Academic courses that prepare for the profession
competitive examinations


During his licence training and during the preparation of the contests, the future professor acquires an expanded disciplinary culture.
All teachers must know the common foundation of knowledge and skills. It is therefore before the competitive examination that future school teachers begin to acquire the knowledge necessary for versatility. It is also before the competition that future second degree teachers must be able to establish the links of their disciplines with related disciplines; They must also be encouraged to engage in university courses opening up to the complementary mentions offered in some recruitment competitions and allowing the bivalence of teachers in the college. They must also be able to acquire other useful knowledge to teach (basicnotions in psychology, sociology, history, philosophy, economy, law, etc.).
The LMD system, by combining training in major disciplines, facilitates the student's progressive orientation. Universities are also seeking to provide graduate students with cross-sectional skills, foreign living language, computer science, methodology, and, in a variety of ways, capacity for expression and a general culture. In this sense, the possibility is offered to future teachers to follow a language course in a living language throughout their academic training. The same is true of the level 1 computer and internet certificate (C2i) which must find its place in the license curriculum.
"Travels of teaching" courses giving a place to basic notions necessary for any future teacher will have to be offered.
The integration of IUFM in universities promotes the generalization of these developments. In addition, the Observatory for Student Pathways and their soon-to-be-established vocational integration in each university, as a result of the recommendation of the commission of the national-employment debate, allows the dissemination of this basic culture necessary for all students destining to primary or secondary education and promotes the consolidation of their professional choice.
During the course of his/her licence course and the period of preparation for the contest, the student planning to become a teacher must also perform one or more observational courses to discover the school, its diversity and its reality today in order to confirm his/her professional choice. The organization of these courses will be the subject of preparation and monitoring workshops at the university. These observation courses will become mandatory, under regulatory conditions, for the registration of recruitment examinations.
It is necessary that students destining themselves to the professor of foreign living languages make a stay of at least four weeks in one of the countries where the language corresponding to their project is in common use, in terms of terms to be defined in agreement with the university.
Finally, the student who tries to work as a teacher needs to understand the world of work, including the company to which the majority of students will be directed. It is therefore necessary that at this stage of his training he undertakes an internship in business.


Recruitment competitions guaranteeing basics
on which vocational training can be built


Recruitment competitions, organized on the basis of national programmes, are essential to ensure a good level in the disciplines that the candidate intends to teach, as well as essential provisions for the exercise of the profession of teacher in schools, colleges and high schools.
The preparation of the contests contributes to the deepening and widening of the disciplined culture of candidates.
During the examinations of eligibility and admission, special attention will be paid to the mastery of the French language (precision of the vocabulary and spelling, grammatical correction) and to the quality of the oral and written expression of the candidates.
Vocational training based on the principle of progressive entry into the profession and accompaniment in the first job
The training of the intern teacher and the first two years of exercise will be required in the same academy to ensure consistency and continuity.
The training of the intern teacher allows him to acquire sufficient mastery of the ten competencies defined below. It must include training in communication and the ability to express itself in public.
However, the support of the new incumbents is an essential part of the initial vocational training, regardless of the place of exercise.
Each newly-registered teacher enjoys during his first year of training of a reference teacher.
In addition, it has a real right of deferred initial training: the four weeks of training during this first year in full responsibility, as well as the two weeks of continuous training during the following year, allow to organize trainings necessary for good vocational training, including internships, but whose organization is often premature at the beginning of vocational training:
- knowledge of the French educational system. For a satisfactory appreciation of the continuity of learning, as for the orientation of the students, it is necessary that the teachers of the schools know the college, that the teachers in college know the school and the high school, that the teachers in high school know the college, the post-baccalaurate cycles, that all teachers know the alternate courses;
- training and training course in the care of the disability complementing the first achievements given to the teacher trainees. In order to support a student with disabilities, but also in order to raise awareness of existing partners, networks, devices and resources, specific training is needed.


2.3. Open training on the economic environment
and on French society
Knowing the world of work


Opening to the professional world is a requirement: every teacher, regardless of his specialty, is concerned by the professional future of his students. In order to ensure its orientation mission, it must have a knowledge of economic reality, the job market and the diversity of trades. An initiation conducted in IUFM (bases of business operations, meetings with economic actors...) will complement the business experience of the future professor. An internship in a company of at least three weeks, possibly a direct experience of work in a company, will become obligatory to obtain titularization in terms to be established.


Cooperate with parents and discover partners
from school to work together


Trainees and new holders must learn to cooperate with parents.
They must know the associative world: representative associations of parents of students, peri-school associations (school support, cultural and sports associations...) and accredited associations complementary to public education.
Trainees of physical and sport education benefit from training in the functioning of sports associations, responsibilities related to the activities of school sports and the organization of sports outings and competitions.
All trainees who may teach artistic disciplines will be able to benefit from a partnership with professionals and institutions under the Ministry of Culture and Territorial Communities.
Trained and newly graduated professors also learn to work with social, medical services (orthophonists, psychologists...), local authorities and partner state services.


Have an effective practice of trades for teachers
and the technological path


In addition to a good level of theoretical knowledge, the professors in charge of technological and professional disciplines must fully know the professions to which they train students. Although the diversity of channels does not make it a rule, it is desirable that such initial professional experience be acquired before the competition (long stay of three months minimum). If this is not the case, as provided in section 3, internships in which the teacher will be in a position to exercise these professions will be organized: the IUFM adapts the duration of this internship to personal situations.
A work placement must be organized during the training in IUFM for all professors of professional high schools, especially those of general education disciplines, regardless of their previous course: this course focuses on the relationship between the school and the company (following students, relations with corporate tutors...) and should allow them to develop appropriate teaching tools.
Understanding the cultural diversity of today's France to contribute to the construction of a common culture for all students
The school is the place of the formation of the citizen and therefore of the construction of a common culture to live together. This culture is based on the sharing of common republican values. It assumes scientifically established knowledge, it also relies on the consideration of the cultural and religious diversity of France today. The knowledge about the religious fact - history, works, heritage, understanding of the current world... - is taught in the various disciplines, but it is essential that all teachers receive a solidly anchored training in a learning of the practice of secularism.
2.4. A professional training system articulated in academic research and ensuring the quality of trainers
The transmission of successful practices by more experienced colleagues is a fundamental dimension of vocational training. However, the experience of the field is not enough to learn the profession of teacher. In initial vocational training, masters must be initiated in scientific research, its results and its applications in teaching. Educational and educational practices must feed on the evolution of knowledge.
2.5. An evaluation and titularization guaranteeing the mastery of all professional skills by intern professors


The evaluation of professional skills cannot be done
in real educational situation


All trainers are required to participate in the evaluation of the professional skills of trainees organized by the IMUFM.
The field trainers, teacher-teachers of teacher-trainers, teacher tutors, are best able to appreciate the progress of teacher trainers: they contribute to the evaluation of their skills with the IUFM trainers. The heads of establishment who host interns professors participate in this evaluation.
For the evaluation of training units provided at the IFMU, particular attention is paid to the acquisition of knowledge that is based on professional skills.
A competency file accompanies the professor-stagiary, and then the professor-holder during his first two years of exercise.


Through the professional qualification examination, the employer state
checks that all required skills are mastered


At the end of a year of internship, it would be in vain to require a thorough mastery of each of the competencies listed in Article 6 of the Order and defined below. The professional qualification examination therefore verifies that all the required skills of trainees are mastered at a satisfactory level; he certifies, before titularization, the aptitude for the profession of a teacher.
The professional qualification review panel is chaired by a representative of the state-employer, including territorial inspectors (national education inspectors and regional academy inspectors) and educational advisors; It is mainly composed of educational executives, academics and professors and trainers who have not participated in the training and evaluation of trainees.
The professional qualification jury is based on the intern teacher's competency file and after a personal interview with each intern teacher.


2.6. Academic training of masters assessed


The periodic evaluation of the quality of higher education systems plays a regulatory function now central: how universities will take responsibility for the effective implementation of the terms of reference with the integration of IUFM will be evaluated from this perspective.
This is what the combined application of the guidance and program law for the future of the school and the program law for research with the establishment of the Agency for the Evaluation of Research and Higher Education (AERES).
However, this "assessment of the modalities and results of the integration of IUFM within the university, particularly in relation to the objectives set to them" (art. L. 721-1 of the Education Code), is strategic and comprehensive. This is why it must be supplemented by a periodic evaluation of training plans as part of the contractual policy.
To this end, on the basis of the commission of the titles of engineers, will be established a National Commission for the Evaluation of the Training of Masters which will include representatives of the State-employer (rectors, academy inspector, director of the departmental services of national education, territorial inspection corps, heads of establishment), general inspectors, academics and qualified personalities (including foreign).
The National Commission for the Evaluation of Master Training will examine the training plans developed by the university in relation to the requirements of this specification of duties. It will be attentive to the training offer and its coherence with the needs of its implementation. It will provide advice and recommendations to universities, the Minister for National Education and the Minister for Higher Education.
The National Master Training Evaluation Commission will assess the quality of the training provided in each MRIF based on the indicators it has defined. The quality of partnerships between the university that has integrated the IFMF and other academy universities, as well as the partnership between the integral university and the academy, will be evaluated in this framework.


3. PROFESSIONAL COMPETITIONS OF MATERIALS


School teachers and college and high school teachers are all teachers. This unit of the profession, beyond the specificities of each level of teaching, justifies a single competency reference for any type of teacher.
For any master, the ultimate goal of successful training is to be able to practice his or her profession, with the knowledge gained and the ability to implement them, and with these spirit provisions that build respect for the students and enable them to fully exercise his or her teacher authority.
The training of the masters is organized around a function in the institution: we will be teacher of schools, high school or high school, professional high school teacher. It also organizes around versatility for school teachers or a disciplinary field for other teachers: it is for bivalent professors as well as for professors specialized in a single discipline.
Ten professional skills must be taken into account in the training of all masters. Each brings together basic knowledge, skills and professional attitudes. They are equally indispensable.


Acting as a state official
and ethically and responsibly


Every teacher contributes to the social and civic training of students. As an agent of the state, he demonstrates professional consciousness and follows ethical principles: he respects and enforces the person of each student, he is attentive to the project of each student; respect and respect freedom of opinion; he is attentive to develop an attitude of objectivity; He knows and enforces the principles of secularism, including neutrality; it ensures the confidentiality of certain information concerning students and their families.
It exercises its freedom and educational responsibility within the framework of regulatory obligations and official texts; it is aware of the rights of civil servants and respects their duties.
The ethics and responsibility of the professor base his exemplarity and authority in the class and in the institution.


Knowledge


The professor knows:
- the values of the Republic and the texts that base them: freedom, equality, brotherhood; laity; denial of all discrimination; mixing; equality between men and women;
- the institutions (state and territorial authorities) that define and implement the educational policy of the nation;
- economic mechanisms and rules that organize the world of work and enterprise;
- the educational policy of France, the main features of its history and its current issues (strategic, political, economic, social) in comparison with other European countries;
- the main principles of public service law and the Code of Education: laws and regulations in relation to the profession exercised, texts relating to the safety of students (such as supervisory obligations) and safety (e.g. reporting obligation);
- the education system, its actors and specific devices (priority education, etc.);
- International Convention on the Rights of the Child;
- its rights and recourse to a situation of threat or violence;
- the administrative and budgetary organization of local schools and public educational institutions;
- the rules of operation of the school or establishment (internal rules, budgetary and legal aspects);
- the characteristics and indicators of the school or exercise establishment;
- the school or exercise facility project;
- the role of the various councils (school board, master board, cycle board, on the one hand, board of directors, pedagogical board, class council, discipline council, on the other).


Capacity


The professor is capable of:
- to use its knowledge on the evolution and operation of the national public education service to use the resources offered;
- to be in the hierarchy of the school institution;
- to participate in the life of the school or establishment;
- to identify signs of specific problems of students in the field of health, risk behaviour, high poverty or abuse;
- to contribute, by cooperating with internal or external partners to the institution, to the resolution of the specific difficulties of students;
- to be respected and to use the sanction with discernment and respect for the law.


Attitudes


Acting ethically and responsibly leads the professor:

4. MISSIONS OF ECOLE, COLLEGE or ACCEEL LYCÉE OF STAGIOUS PROFESSORS AND NEW TITULAR
The network of schools, colleges and high schools hosting trainees as well as the modalities of the reception of trainees (especially the articulation of the various internships) are established by the rector and the academy inspector, director of the departmental services of national education, in partnership with the university and the university institute of integrated teacher training.
This network of establishments (schools, colleges and high schools) enables the articulation between the initial training and the exercise of the full responsibility of the teacher; It is based on the project of institutions in connection with national educational policy and its academic decline.
Schools and schools hosting new professors organize their educational support.


4.1. Schools and schools of teachers
trainees or new entrants have a training mission


The aim is to create an environment that supports the intern professor or new teacher in his/her taking office and facilitates the implementation of his/her disciplinary, educational and educational skills in all their dimensions.
It is also a matter of training each intern professor at his mission as a state official by helping him to become aware of his role as adult referent to the students and the ethical dimensions of the profession he chose.
Schools and reception facilities for trainees or new incumbents must ensure:
- undertake a training process in partnership with the university and the university institute for the training of integrated masters;
- to provide the professor with the answers to the professional questions he asks and to provide the expected information with respect to the objectives assigned to the internships;
- promote the teacher's involvement in teamwork and educational consultations, meetings with parents and various partners.


4.2. New incumbent trainees and teachers
must be welcomed and accompanied


Intern professors and new incumbent professors must be welcomed and accompanied: the organization, conduct and evaluation of internship arrangements will be given special attention.
The reflection within the institution or school on the activities proposed to them is an integral part of this reception and accompaniment. This requires the involvement of all actors (e.g., school principal, school principal, teacher-teachers, teacher-teachers, tutors or referents, temporary host teachers, trainers, teachers and trainees): each, according to its field of competence, takes its part.


Interns teachers


With regard to the liability internship, care must be taken:
- the choice of classes, levels, education cycles, disciplines and the organization of the use of time creating conditions conducive to the entry into the profession and the construction of professional skills. In second-degree establishments, this responsibility rests with the heads of establishment in relation to the inspection bodies;
- the programming of activities carried out by the trainees under the responsibility of the school principal or the school principal, based on the highlights of the school year: reception of students and parents, participation in the various boards of the school or school, preparation of the orientation for the second degree.
For the internship as well as for all other internships, an internship report for the intern teacher allowing him to become aware of the skills built and the work that remains to be done is written by the teacher tutor or teacher teacher trainer in collaboration with the school director or school principal. This record takes place in the competency file.
In the school or in the institution (or in the absence of immediate proximity), reference professors or tutor teachers, recognized for their competence, will be designated respectively, on the proposal of the inspector of national education by the academy inspector, director of the departmental services of national education or, on the proposal of the inspector of national education or the inspector of academy-regional pedagogical inspector by the rector.


New professors in charge


New incumbent teachers are accompanied as required. They receive the support of a referent professor designated under the conditions defined above for interns.


Conclusion


The new masters' training system has a decisive role in the evolution of the knowledge society: as a vigy first through a scientific research - whether it is disciplinary, educational or educational - always attentive to the students and now knowledge at the right levels of the essential and the useful; as a mediator between a school subject to daily life and a contemporary demand for ever-changing education; as a smuggler of the demands of the public service of national education that requires, in advance of any educational function in the school institution, sharing personal values and ethics, full awareness of the missions established by the nation and appropriation of the common rules.
The professional training that determines the implementation of the terms of reference for teacher training will meet the demands often expressed by young teachers: more anchored in the reality of the class and the institution, it will each be responsible by respecting the hierarchy and chronology of individual needs.
This is the whole meaning of a device that combines in a continuum disciplinary training, knowledge of the field and of the economic and social environment, educational and educational training based on case studies drawn from situations experienced by trainees and a permanent return between practice and theory, and then a strong support from the incumbent professors in the first job.
The organization of vocational training in three years, articulating initial training and continuous training, is the essential starting point for professional training throughout life. It is from this perspective that in the short term the continuous training of teachers must become compulsory.
The definition of teacher training developed here anchors its foundations in the history of the French school; However, as was the case with the decree defining the common foundation of knowledge and skills, it is an essential step towards a European harmonization of the objectives and skills required by the masters. Convergence occurs, regardless of the missions each country assigns to its school, its educational traditions and its organizational system. It would therefore be natural that any teacher, thus participating in a possible professional mobility within the Union, would be able to benefit in the course of his training of an internship to discover a European educational system.
