The 'La main à la pâte' Foundation aims to improve the quality of science and technology teaching in primary and middle schools, i.e. during early education where equality of opportunity is key. Its action is geared towards providing support and professional development for science teachers. It aims to help teachers implement an investigative approach to teaching that stimulates pupils' analytical and critical thinking skills, their understanding of the world and ability to express themselves.

The Committee, chaired by Alain Cadix, member of the Académie des technologies, advises the Board of Governors on major orientations in the field of scientific/technological education and is a force for proposal on the actions to be carried out by the Foundation.
