Titre : What is the integration of local heritage in french education? Auteurs : Angela Barthes, Serge Da Silva, Pierre Champollion, Revue : Educations Numéro : Special issue Volume : 4 Date : 2021/05/10 DOI : 10.21494/ISTE.OP.2021.0659 ISSN : 2632-590X Résumé : The gradual introduction - more or less formalized - from 1945 to the present day of the resources of the local territory in education in France, appeared to be a condition for the emergence of heritage education. We will first show how taking into account the local dimension of the territory very gradually emerged within the school of the Republic - both deemed to be one and indivisible! - in France. We will then analyze the successive contributions of the various “educations for” - by relying first on environmental education, then on education for sustainable development and finally on heritage education to the consideration of the local territory through education. We will thus see precisely that these three "educations for", which constituted so many significant milestones from this perspective, clearly testify today to a change - at least partial - of paradigm in the relations between the school and its territory. Finally, we will identify the major issues of heritage education in schools today, which can be broken down into three major questions: in terms of educational purpose, in terms of the legitimacy of the heritage objects to be taught and, finally, in terms of disciplinary contribution.
