Summary/Abstract: The objective of this article is to determine the place given to the cultural dimension in the teaching of French as a foreign language in the primary cycle in Algeria. At time when foreign language-culture teachers insist on the need to integrate the culture conveyed by the target language, the educational reform of 2003 envisages the opening of the Algerian school to foreign cultures and civilizations with the aim to provide the learner with a set of linguistic, cultural and intercultural skills, allowing him to participate in (inter)cultural exchanges and to access universal knowledge. The results of a questionnaire survey, conducted among teachers, reveal the priority given to the linguistic dimension to the detriment of the cultural dimension, due to a lack of teacher training.
