520			_aThis Article looks at developments in French private schools, 97% of which are Catholic in origin, where a sort of religious comeback is taking place, with the Episcopate reinvesting in schools, even though only 14% of parents choose them for religious reasons. What is behind this re-Christianisation of an education that is less and less Catholic? French society has become secularised over the last twenty years or so, as religious practice has collapsed in a process common to all European countries. While Catholicism remains the number one religion in France, it has now been overtaken by atheists or those who are indifferent to religion. Is this why Catholic leaders are reiterating the importance of educational values? In 2013, the Bishops of France and the Secretariat General of Catholic education promulgated a new status and have revisited the character defined by the 1959 Debré Law on the relationship between the State and private schools. In what way does the specific nature of schools call into question secularism, moral and republican values and the need to consider changing mores? How are these national provisions implemented at the local level? Based on grey literature and public positions, this analysis of a few examples shows how social issues such as sexual education and homophobia are taken into account in schools where there is no unanimity in favour of one approach or another, as parents and teachers are primarily concerned with the success of the pupils.
