Jean-Michel Chapoulie, Dominique Merllié : The Recruitment of Secondary School Teachers : (I) The Objective Determinants of Entry into the Teaching Profession.
On the basis of data about class origins and the post-primary studies of secondary school teachers who were holding positions in 1970 (these data were collected during two surveys : from questionnaires to a national sample and from semidirective interviews), and from various statistical data on the secondary and higher studies of different categories of persons with degrees from institutions of higher education, this article analyzes the objective determinants of the recruitment of secondary school teachers. It shows that this recruitment is explained by the actual organization of academic « networks » which tend to orient part of the best students from secondary schools toward the teaching profession through the intermediaries of the preparatory classes for the elitist schools and of general literary and scientific courses. Submitting to scholastic norms of orientation is particularly strong for women, on the whole, and for men coming from the lower middle classes and below. For men from other social classes, entry into teaching profession seems in general to be the product of relative scholastic success ? at certain stages in the cycle of studies ? which is not sufficient for letting them enter or continue in professional studies which lead to the most socially valued careers among the upper classes. This article also studies the differentiation of the means of entry into the two principal categories of secondary school teachers ? the agrégés and the certifiés ? as well as the manner in which teachers seem to have experienced the totality of the social trajectory which has led them into their profession.
