Abstract EN

The present article deals with the major reforms that Margaret thatcher undertook as regards education policies in Britain through a number of acts and schemes and consisted in changing the nation’s schools system from a public service into a market.

these reforms were to affect not only the school curriculum but also local education authorities and teachers.

thatcher’s government was determined to weaken the role of the leas by reducing their responsibility and control, and offering parents much larger role in the running of schools instead.

the result of these policies was the 1988 education reform act, which introduced the national curriculum and the key stages of compulsory education with a focus on improving standards.

Abstract FRE

Le présent article porte sur les grandes réformes que Margaret Thatcher a entrepris en matière de politiques éducatives en Grande-Bretagne grâce à un certain nombre d'actes et de schémas et ont consisté à changer le système scolaire national d'un service public à une entreprise économique (marché).

Ces réformes affectaient non seulement le programme scolaire, mais aussi les autorités scolaires locales et les enseignants.

Le gouvernement de Thatcher était déterminé à affaiblir le rôle des autorités scolaires locales en réduisant leurs responsabilités et leur contrôle et en offrant aux parents un rôle beaucoup plus important dans le fonctionnement des écoles.

Le résultat de ces politiques était la Loi de 1988 sur la réforme de l'éducation, qui a introduit le programme d'études national et les étapes clés de l'enseignement obligatoire axé sur l'amélioration des normes.
