Must do better – October 8 before the Board of Governors of the extraordinary education, Najat Belkacem-Vallaud spoke on the record of student assessment, one of the important projects of rebuilding the school. For the Minister of National Education, the rating should indicate a level rather than punish the student. In this reflection, the traditional system of encrypted notes short is pointed. Some are for its abolition, others remain deeply attached.

Minister, she said that there was no question of deleting the notes, but that it should be noted otherwise: “This is an evaluation of thinking that created the conditions for the acquisition of knowledge system.” This is what tends, on the field, the schools that are experimenting with innovative devices. Skills assessment without numerical score, is one. So well? Not good? Too early to withdraw a full review. What is certain however, is that in the matter, the school must do better.

74% French unfavorable to the removal of grades in school

According to an Ifop poll published in June, 74% of French would be unfavorable to delete notes in school. The rating culture is too ingrained in people’s minds. For proof, Violet, medical secretary Villetelle in Herault, mother of Matthew, schoolboy, “It reassures me I can follow the progress of my son I have always in mind the bad grades I had in.. English. Enormous pressure, yet I do not see how you can do without such benchmarks. “

As for teachers, opinions are divided. Evaluations without notes are mostly carried by a group of innovative teachers. And when the project fails, it is in most cases because the cohesion among teachers was not maintained.

The pediment of Galaberte college, located in St. Hippolyte-du-Fort in the Gard, is classified as historical monuments. Already existed in the nineteenth century, the time of Jules Ferry, the founder of the modern school. It said. The building, well preserved, has seen in the students. First primary, boys and girls, always attending the perimeter. Then the kids from sixth to third. Three hundred and eighty in total this year. One hundred experiments evaluating note.Fini without zeros, and eighty whole plethora of numbers that separate these two extremes for the four classes of sixth and, in some disciplines, in the fifth and fourth. Now, students’ skills are evaluated according to four levels: Expert, Almost mastered, A rework, Non acquired. A mini-revolution. “This educational innovation has been driven by a dozen professors,” said the principal of the school, Ivan Guezennec, who warmly welcomed the initiative. The implementation has been smooth.



“The goal is to persuade and not coerce”

“It This is not to impose a bulldozer! Teachers who wish to continue applying notes.’s goal is to convince, not coerce. Dualism devices is maintained. ” In the class of French Claire Lavit, appreciation of the understanding of text before the reading is done this way. Everyone goes at their own pace under the watchful eye of the teacher. Feel free to raise your hand to ask a question. We take time to understand, assimilate. “The pupils will get their money and we do not forget those that work well,” said Ivan Guezennec. Eventually, he hopes to use valuation without notes at all levels of the college. But look the other way: “It’s not that that will solve all the problems of the school, but it’s part of the device for removing guilt and support closer to the students.”

After the Thanksgiving holiday, a different story is waiting for the principal and his team of teachers: explain in a meeting the relevance of validating skills to parents. “We understand that some people are skeptical.” The numerical score is intrinsically linked to school crossings and steps, classes. “At quarter end, the report card will be directly to parents to communicate in a transparent and comprehensible way to the results of each child.”



” The notes are often unexciting “

In college Twin Pines Frontignan in Herault, the notes were relegated to the closet for four years. The property has been encouraged in its efforts by the academic cell research and development innovations-experiments (Cardia) of the Academy of Montpellier. “The notes are often unexciting. With the skills assessment, the student knows on what terms it is biased. This is less discriminatory,” said Christiane Giraudeau, principal of the institution. The latest survey of parents found that they were quite satisfied with the device. They too may well pass notes.

Assimilation at their own pace

Boarding Success – called at their original boarding schools of excellence – are aimed at college students, high school students and motivated students who do not receive an enabling environment to succeed in school. The evaluation system practiced is associated with the particular operation of the facility, explains Michel Sirvent, the headmaster of the boarding of the success of the Academy of Montpellier. The important thing is that the child learns, he likened what is transmitted and not to produce a value judgment.

“The evaluation is done when the adult who forwarded requests the child what he has assimilated. problem encountered with the notes is that we do not care what the student has assimilated but he replied to yet T. “observes Michel Sirvent. Adding: “The notes are justified if the institution that is applied selectively, which is not the case with us we’re in a more built orientation, a kindly follow this system one is more demanding.. notes because it calls for an explanation, an answer to be given to the child. “

A boarding school for success, we focus on the time of assimilation and the possibility of working again when it is not granted. “We’re in the construction of knowledge to the rhythm of the student and an assessment but not the quarter on a year or even several years.”
