Le Baccalauréat

Get audio

Le Baccalauréat a été créé en 1808. C’est un diplôme du système éducatif français qui a la double particularité de marquer la fin des études secondaires (période de collège et lycée), et d’ouvrir les portes aux études supérieures (universités, grandes écoles, IUT ( Instituts Universitaires de Technologies), etc).

Plus connu aujourd’hui sous l’abbréviation de BAC, le diplôme du baccalauréat se décompose en trois groupes : baccalauréat général, baccalauréat technologique et baccalauréat professionnel.

Le baccalauréat général est constitué des filières L (littéraire), ES (économique et sociale) et S (scientifique). Il vise à la poursuite d’études supérieures.

Le baccalauréat technologique associe une formation générale à une formation techonologique. Les séries telles que STI (Science et Techonologies Industrielles) et STT (Sciences et Technologies Tertiaires) font partie du baccalauréat technologique. Celui-ci implique la poursuite d’études telles que BTS (Brevet de Techinicien Supérieur), DUT (Diplôme Universitaire Technologique), etc.

Le baccalauréat professionnel, quant à lui, est davantage axé sur une approche pratique (formation en entreprise destinée à une profession particulière). En relation avec les milieux professionnels tels que techniciens d’ateliers, employés qualifiés ou autres, le baccalauréat professionnel est un diplôme d’insertion profesionnelle destiné à préparer une entrée immédiate dans la vie active.

La proportion des bacheliers et le taux d’obtention global va en grandissant au fil des années. En 1945, seulement 3% des candidats obtenaient leur BAC. La proportion est passée à 25% en 1975, 62% en 2000 et 80% en 2003.

Le taux de réussite jusqu’à présent croissant aux épreuves du baccalauréat reflète la nécéssité, voire l’indispensabilité, d’obtenir son BAC à la poursuite d’études ou à l’obtention d’un emploi.
