Résumé anglais Viviane Isambert Jamati : The rigidity of an institution : school system and system of value. Any school reform in France must necessarily take into account a strong institution which tends to remain equal to itself : the lycée. The great numerical increase in secondary schools for the last ten years does not facilitate changes in structure, and the actions in favor of a « single school » have always met with lively resistance. With regards to primary schooling the lycée teachers have developed a series of prejudices. The exceptional value they attribute to what they transmit and the manner in which they transmit it reinforces their feeling of superiority. A content analysis of the prize awards speeches since one hundred years shows a regression of the instrumental objectives (highly developed in between the two wars) in benefit of cultural impregnation objectives. This recent tendency may be interpreted as a reaction to educational reforms.
