description This article does not discuss convergence and divergences in competence-based approaches (Roegiers, 2008), but rather proposes to examine the effectiveness of such an approach in teaching French as a second language in lower- and upper-secondary school in Senegal. It offers a critical analysis of the place of a competence-based approach in the curriculum and its implementation on the ground, particularly within classrooms. Developing competences presupposes three conditions: Are teachers trained in this approach? Do over-crowded classes permit the class to carry out the tasks, activities and actions necessary to acquire competences? Are the teaching materials in use appropriate? We propose that the effectiveness of a pedagogical method depends on its adequacy within its linguistic, cultural and educational context. Drawing on analysis of official documents, a questionnaire, and class observation, our study questions the links between the prescribed approach, classroom practices, and their consequences for learners.
