Résumé
In September 2020, all sixth grade students were assessed in French and mathematics on digital media (800,000 students in nearly 7,000 middle schools) for the fourth consecutive year. The evaluation took place after the lock-in episode of March to April 2020.We note an improvement in results in both French and mathematics compared to 2019. In French, nearly nine out of ten students have a satisfactory or very good command of the knowledge and skills assessed at the beginning of the sixth grade. In mathematics, more than seven out of ten do so. Girls perform better than boys in French, while in mathematics the results are comparable. Performance continues to vary widely according to the social profile of the schools. In 2020, the analysis of additional data from specific tests confirms these findings in each discipline. Finally, the results of a fluency test, calculated on a sample of students, indicate that only slightly more than half of sixth graders have a satisfactory level of fluency, with clear differences depending on the schooling sector.
