Outwork focuses on theschooling of children from north africa in the french educational system. It is made up of two types of research - one based on theory and the other on work done in the field. In each case, we have distinguished two parts. In the first part, the theoretical work describes the history and evolution of immigration from north africa into france. Essentially gennevilliers. The second part is mainly devoted to the schooling of children and young people from north africa in the french educational system, and more particularly in gennevilliers. In this part, we deal with the various problems encountered by schoolchildren from a disadvantaged background, in particular those of foreign origin. As far as our research in the field is concerned, we conducted two types of survey. First, we interviewed people in seven schools, those interviewed being fifty-one primary school teachers, six headmasters, seven members of the gppa (group for psycho-pedagogic assistance). Sixty-two pupils from north africa and twenty familles from north africa. Secondly, we made direct observations in two secondary school classes with pupils of mainly north african origin.
