Question 753 — teaching

Summary

Complementary certification, established by the amended decree of December 23, 2003, allows trainee or tenured teachers to have specific skills recognized, after an examination organized at the academic level, which do not fall within the scope of their competition. These skills can be linguistic in nature (teaching French as a second language, teaching a non-linguistic subject in a foreign language, teaching in French sign language) or concern artistic fields for which there is no recruitment competition. The artistic fields thus concerned are cinema-audiovisual, theater, dance and art history, which each constitute a specific option in the “arts” disciplinary sector of the complementary certification. Additional certification can be presented, depending on the sector disciplinary concerned, by teachers either of the first and second degrees, or belonging to only one of these levels of education. Thus, with regard to the “French as a second language” disciplinary sector, it is expected that its ownership by first and second level teachers will encourage the intervention, at school and college, of competent and motivated teachers with a view to bringing newly arrived students up to speed in French. France without sufficient mastery of the French language and enrolled in inclusion classes or in educational units for arriving allophone students (UPE2A) in schools or secondary education establishments. On the other hand, the “arts” disciplinary sector is reserved for secondary school teachers because the four options cinema-audiovisual, theater, dance and art history included in this sector correspond to teaching specialty or optional classes of the final cycle of high schools (sanctioned by the general or technological baccalaureate); classes in which school teachers are not, statutorily, intended to intervene. Primary school teachers being versatile by nature, teaching the arts is part of the missions of each of them, the conduct of activities by the teacher can also be enriched by the support from an external participant.
