Abstract

The fostering tolerance problem in the modern world is becoming increasingly current in the context of globalization processes and the migration crisis. Following the need to cultivate tolerance in the younger generation, the French modern education system aims to install the ‘values of the Republic’ as an element of public school programs. At the same time, it turned out that most teachers are not sufficiently trained to carry out educational activities in the sphere of fostering tolerance. The education system reform carried out in 2013 made this training compulsory introducing the so-called ‘Common Core Program’ (Tronc Commun) to future teachers of all specialties. Within the program, teachers deepen their knowledge in history, philosophy, law, sociology, pedagogy.
