List of education ministers of France

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Minister of National Education ( Ministre de l'Education nationale ) is a member of the French government responsible for developing the education system.

The Ministry of Public Education ( Ministre de l'Instruction Publique ) was created in France in 1828. It was usually combined with the office of the Minister of Public Worship who dealt with matters affecting the Catholic Church (unless the Minister of Public Education was a Protestant ).

In 1932 the official title was changed to Minister for National Education . This has remained the case to this day, even if the traditional name was reintroduced for a short time between 1940 and 1941 and the title of Minister of Education was used during the presidency of Valéry Giscard d'Estaing (1974–1981) .
