This paper discusses collaboration within the context of current educational reforms and policies. It is based on data collected from a research relating to the collaborative practices at a group of teachers, within the framework of the implementation of a new curriculum in secondary education in Québec. It aims to highlight the practices, the motivations, and factors that contribute to collaboration, as well as the challenges teachers met in their daily work. It suggests that, even if the teachers seem to be in favour of collaboration, it does not integrate easily into their practises, in the current context of a greater regulation of the work. Finally, this paper indicates some tensions and questions that constitute promising ways of reflexion on collaboration work.
