The purpose of this thinking was to put at the service of the Cameroonian educational community an approach to the entrance examination to secondary school seen from an interdisciplinary angle. To do this, we carried out in turn a bibliographic work, data collection in the field, then data processing followed by the drafting of the final document. It appears that the Cameroonian education system is organized into two Subsystems. Regardless of the Subsystem, entry to secondary school is by competitive examination. Helping students to experience school on a daily basis is today a major challenge. The solution proposed here recommends a completely original approach, the thematic approach. It eliminates ‘autarky’ in favour of ‘synergy’ between events. The themes selected are as follows: Climate change, Fight against pandemics (case of HIV-AIDS), and Waste management. These themes relate to carefully chosen areas, in particular the climate, health, and the environment. The production of the tests to be offered to the candidates here must be based on the following requirements: Interdisciplinary approach for the solution of the situational problem, Strong implication of cultural elements in the content of the situations, Content of the situation modeled on the daily experience of the children of an age corresponding to that of the candidates, Possibility for the candidate to carry out completely original approaches, Clearly bring out the facts of everyday life which are perfectly in line with the themes, Giving the possibility to the candidates to establish plausible links between the plagues targeted for the occasion. This vision is revealed as a platform that gives the opportunity for scientific data and contextual data to travel together.
