varies from single to double depending on the country: it is 13 or 12 weeks for 10 countries against 6 weeks in 5 countries.<\/p>\n<p>The difference is thus played on holidays during the year, the other countries rarely having &#8220;small holidays&#8221; which exceed the week.\u00a0A distribution that has organized over XX\u00a0<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0\u00a0century.\u00a0If the total duration of the holidays has not changed since the end of the third Republic, the calendar has changed a lot.<\/p>\n<h4>Social Distinction<\/h4>\n<p>Are\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.liberation.fr\/france\/2017\/08\/25\/pourquoi-les-grandes-vacances-tombent-elles-l-ete_1589433\">summer holidays<\/a>\u00a0a legacy of agricultural France?\u00a0The trace of a time when children helped their families for harvest?\u00a0In reality, the tempo that finally prevailed was that of secondary schools, which, however, received only two or three per cent of an age group under the Third Republic.<\/p>\n<p>As historian\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cairn.info\/revue-d-histoire-moderne-et-contemporaine-2015-4-page-185.htm\">Antoine Prost<\/a>\u00a0has shown\u00a0, nobles should not &#8220;work&#8221;: it would have been &#8220;derogatory&#8221; to their rank.\u00a0Hence, more often than not, a way of life alternating: in town, in their mansion, in the bad season;\u00a0in the country, in their castle, during the beautiful season.\u00a0In their turn, many bourgeois have sought to live nobly.\u00a0To take holidays was to show that we were above the workers, that we were different from them.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, in the XIX\u00a0<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0\u00a0century, the children of the bourgeoisie and aristocracy &#8211; which then were practically the only ones to attend colleges and high schools &#8211; thus joined their families in the second half of the summer to participate, not the work of the fields, but social networks that were tied then especially around hunting (activity of noble origin, privilege, even, under the Old Regime).<\/p>\n<p>Starting from the establishment of the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/catalogue.sciencespo.fr\/ark:\/46513\/sc0000290683\">Third Republic<\/a>\u00a0, the holidays of secondary education will begin earlier and earlier in the year, and last longer.\u00a0In 1875 it was decided that they would begin on August 9th;\u00a0then, from 1891 on\u00a0\u00a0August\u00a0<sup>1st<\/sup>\u00a0.\u00a0In 1912, the beginning of the &#8220;great holidays&#8221; is advanced to July 14;\u00a0but they always last until 1\u00a0<sup>st<\/sup>\u00a0\u00a0of October.\u00a0So we went from 1874 to 1912, from one and a half months of vacation to two and a half months.<\/p>\n<h4>Arrival of paid holidays<\/h4>\n<p>For primary schools (where the vast majority of young Frenchmen then go), the decree of 4 January 1894 fixes the duration of the holidays at six weeks.\u00a0But it contains an addition that is important: &#8220;However, the duration of the holidays can be increased to eight weeks in elementary schools where classes are organized&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lepoint.fr\/societe\/rythmes-scolaires-les-lecons-de-l-histoire-14-06-2010-466651_23.php\">The extension<\/a>\u00a0of two weeks will be for different reasons, and generalize.\u00a0It is first granted as a reward (for teachers &#8230;).\u00a0The decree of 27 July 1896 grants it to staff &#8220;who have contributed to the functioning of regular classes of adults and adolescents&#8221;.\u00a0At the very end of the XIX\u00a0<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0\u00a0century, a practice has created: the normal holiday period increased from six to eight weeks, as recognized by the decree of July 21, 1900.<\/p>\n<p>In 1922, we add fifteen days to the month and a half of summer holidays.\u00a0They range from 1\u00a0<sup>st<\/sup>\u00a0\u00a0August to 30 September.\u00a0In 1938, they are aligned with those of the secondary and fixed from July 15th to September 30th.\u00a0It is the Popular Front.\u00a0Paid leave often begins on July 14th.\u00a0We thus instituted great holidays that go from July 15th to September 30th.\u00a0&#8220;Children&#8217;s holidays and parents&#8217; holidays must be brought into harmony,&#8221; said\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/fr.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Jean_Zay\">Jean Zay<\/a>\u00a0, Minister of National Education.<\/p>\n<h4>Holiday areas<\/h4>\n<p>In 1959, the summer holidays are shifted a whole two weeks: they start earlier, on 1\u00a0<sup>st<\/sup>\u00a0\u00a0July and end early, in mid &#8211; September.\u00a0As the first trimester was lengthened, it is decided that 4 days will be released at All Saints&#8217; Day so that there is a small cut.<\/p>\n<p>Thirteen years later, in 1972, after the Olympic Winter Games in Grenoble, the winter holidays were instituted.\u00a0And with them, zoning (A, B, C) to promote the development of tourism and traffic during large &#8220;transhumance&#8221; afferent.<\/p>\n<p>From there, we enter the well-known issue of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cairn.info\/revue-francaise-de-pedagogie-2009-1-page-143.htm\">7 + 2<\/a>\u00a0(7 weeks of class followed by 2 weeks of vacation, a rhythm unanimously recommended by chronobiologists), but who knows many ups and downs.<\/p>\n<h4>Debate on the calendar<\/h4>\n<p>If it is necessary to lengthen the number of weeks &#8220;worked&#8221; to align with the median of the other countries which is 38 weeks against 36 for France, the best would be not to touch the small holidays of two weeks but of shorten the two week long vacation.<\/p>\n<p>France is currently &#8211; and by far &#8211; the country where the number of &#8220;worked&#8221; days per year is the lowest, especially for municipalities that have chosen the four &#8211; day school week (instead of four and a half days) , and this can be considered an effective problem.<\/p>\n<p>But the subject is very sensitive, even cleavage.\u00a0Teachers are very reluctant, even for many of them very hostile to such an evolution, especially if there are no compensation, salary or other.\u00a0French teachers are certainly among the teachers who have the most vacations;\u00a0but they are also among the lowest paid.<\/p>\n<p>Interviewed on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lejdd.fr\/Politique\/jean-michel-blanquer-au-jdd-lennemi-cest-legalitarisme-3395378\">July 22, 2017<\/a>\u00a0by\u00a0<em>Le Journal du dimanche<\/em>\u00a0, the Minister of Education Jean-Michel Blanquer replied:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Whenever we talk about the child XXI\u00a0<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0\u00a0century, we must ask the question of the summer holidays or intermediate vacation.\u00a0This is a more important subject than the weekly rhythms.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>On June 22, 2018\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.europe1.fr\/politique\/rythmes-scolaires-il-y-a-un-sujet-des-vacances-en-france-on-va-devoir-le-poser-estime-blanquer-3689792\">on Europe 1<\/a>\u00a0, the minister reiterated: &#8220;it has been a long time since I say that we will have to ask quietly but surely the question of school holidays&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>So, a year later, we ask &#8211;
