Abstract

The article concerns the assessment systems adopted in France by DEP (Direction de l’Evaluation, de la Prospective et de la Performance) on behalf of the French Ministry of National Education. These national and international systems are based on methods of assessment in the field of education and on psychometric models. They provide the persons in charge of educational policy with information, thus allowing them to assess the performances and the effectiveness of the educational system, as well as to take the necessary decisions.
