À qui appartient la langue française ?

Depuis 2008, le projet Voltaire s’est spécialisé dans la certification et la remise à niveau en orthographe. Et depuis 2015, il publie un baromètre du niveau d’orthographe des Français, baromètre largement repris dans la presse début juin 2017. Or, de l’orthographe à la langue, il n’y a qu’un pas que certains journaux s’empressent de franchir, à l’image de ce sous-titre lu dans Midi Libre : « Au baromètre annuel publié par Projet Voltaire, la région joue les élèves modèles sur la maîtrise de la langue française ».

Laboratory schools: a new educational phenomenon

What is a “laboratory school”? Simply put, it’s a school backed by a university department or an institution that trains teachers.
