The second is the first class of the college S generals and technological in France and the way chosen by most of the schoolboys.
Orientation
This class is undifferentiated and allows to go in any general Série or technological: it constitutes as the class of third a stage of orientation and it is the
Staff meeting which decides acceptance or not of the pupil in the type of
first required. It is as for this reason as the class of second is sometimes called “second of determination”.
At the conclusion of the second, it is possible to reach the following classes:
First S,
First ES,
First L
First STI, First STG, First ST2S and First STL.
Material taught
One however speaks still commonly about second general and second technological, because of the options available in class of second which are is options known as " générales" (alive Language 2, LV3, Dead language (Latin or Greek) and Art S primarily) and of the more technological options said (like IGC: medico-social data processing, management and communication) or sciences), but this separation become less and less important and much seem adapted to the general series like technological:
- Economic scenes and social (ITS) for those which wish to pass in ES or in STG
- MPI for those which wish to pass in S or STI
- PCL for those which wish to pass in STL, in S or STI
- ISI for those which wishes to pass in S or in STI
- ISP for those which wish to pass in STI
- SMS for those which want to pass in ST2S
- IGC for those which wish to pass in STG
The LV2 is obligatory to be able to go in all the general series and in STG.
Joint base
The program is composed of a joint base comprising the following matters:
-
* French, (4h) (+30minutes of module)
- * Mathematical, (3h) (+1 hour of module)
- * History Geography (3h common) (+30 minutes of module)
- * ECJS, (0h30)
- * EPS, (2h)
- * Language alive, (3h) (+1 hour of module)
- * Physical - Chemistry, (2h of course and 1:30 of physical T.P. or chemistry)
- * SVT - Geology (0h30 of course and 1:30 T.P.) of the joint base in the case of a second containing the options of determination ISI/ISP
There is also possibly 1 hour of assistance individualized in French and 1 hour in mathematics for the students in difficulty.
Note: TP = " work pratiques"
Note 2: the hours are weekly unless otherwise specified
Note 3: the hours of modules are duplicated if the class has 25 pupils or more
Option of determination
To the teaching of the joint base, two obligatory options are added which predispose with such or such section but at all do not prevent the request and the passage in another section except for the LV2: if it were not selected, it imperatively prevents the passage in general series and often STG too.
The options of determination are the following ones:
- *LV2: Living language 2 (obligatory choice in the majority of the colleges)
- *LV3: living language 3
- *Langue dead: Latin or Greek
- *SES: Economic scenes and social
- *SMS: Medico-social sciences
- * MPI: Physical measurements and data processing
- *IGC: Business computing and Communication
- * ISI: Initiation with the engineerings (who replace old option TSA)
- *ISP: Data processing and systems of production
- *Culture design and creation design (options reserved to the pupils wishing to prepare a baccalaureat STI applied arts)
- *Arts: With the choice among visual arts, music, theater, dance, art of the circus, cinema-audio-visual and history of arts
- *EATC: Ecology agronomy territory citizenship
- *PCL: Physics and chemistry of laboratory
- *BLP: Biology of laboratory and ancillary medical
Optional option
The pupils can choose in more one additional optional option nonselected like option of determination among:
- *LV2 (only if two technological lesson is selected in determination)
- *LV3 Arab, Chinese, Russian, Dutch or Italian
- *Langue dead: Latin or Greek
- *Arts (choices identical to the teaching of determination arts)
- *EPS: Physical education and sporting
- *Pratic social and cultural (only in agricultural college)
Other lesson
With this lesson can be also added, if the pupil wishes it, a teaching of artistic expression of 72 H annual and, if the establishment evaluates it necessary, a teaching of levelling in data processing.

Life of class and the establishment
The 10 annual hours of life of class make it possible to prepare and give an account of the staff meetings and to prepare the school orientation after the second and the vat without empartir on the teaching of the
Main teacher of the class. They can also be asked by the pupils to solve an internal problem, or by the establishment for questions of an administrative nature or concerning the life of the establishment.
Actually, these 10 annual hours are not systematically used, the teachers like the pupils not asking for little even an hour of life of class, and ignoring their existence sometimes.

The living language 3 is a three hours teaching per week which can be supplemented one hour with an assistant coming from the country of taught language.
Its study starts in second with the college and comprises:

Initiation with the engineerings.
This option as its name indicates it present in a brief way the topics approached in the reference frame (program) of 1st and Tle S option IF (engineerings).
Well which is with MPI the second option Scientifique of Second general and technological, it allows in addition to giving an outline teaching to carry out it in 1st and Tle STI (sciences and industrial technology) since part of the points approached during the year are thorough in the reference frame of STI.
ISP
Data processing and systems of production
The ISP, Data processing and Systems of production are a technological teaching of determination of 3:00. It succeeded the Computer-integrated manufacturing a few years ago in a logic of evolution, while taking favors modernization of the equipment.
It makes it possible to the pupils seconds to approach technological teaching in college through the production:
goods: various assembled products carried out in small series.
services: maintenance, house automation, etc
of work:
The pupil is placed in the middle of the system of production, in interactivity with the other pupils who take part in the meeting of practical works. With this intention, a big part of the time of formation (approximately 80%) is devoted to the activities of realization by using all average the techniques and all the data-processing assistances necessary, including the access to the databases. The essential phases of structuring of knowledge are organized during the 20% remainders. Those are strongly pressed on the acts of production and control carried out by the pupils and privilege the inductive teaching approach.

MPI
Physical measurements and data processing (MPI) is in France a teaching of applied sciences in option of the class of second options to the college. The present denomination replaces since 2001 that of " Data processing and electronics in sciences physiques" (IESP). The official texts present this teaching of determination like which can cause orientations towards the science sections and technological.
