Abstract	A natural way to look for signs of assimilation in migrants children is to compare their educational attainment to that of natives of the same age cohort (neighbours). However, background counts in these matters, so we look at the educational attainment of the previous generation (parents) as well as their social status. Using data for Portuguese in both France and Portugal together with data on the French, we show that the educational attainment of the second generation in France is much closer to that of the French than to that of those who stayed in Portugal (cousins). In this sense we can speak of assimilation.On peut détecter les signes d’assimilation chez les enfants d’immigrants en comparant leurs résultats scolaires avec les enfants indigènes de la même cohorte d’âge (voisins). C’est la façon normale de procéder. Toutefois, les antécédents familiaux doivent être pris en compte dans ce type de comparaison. Il faut donc examiner les résultats scolaires de la génération précédente (parents) et tenir compte de leur statut social. En nous servant des données relatives aux Portugais de France et du Portugal, ainsi que des données relatives aux Français, nous avons constaté que la réussite scolaire de la deuxième génération de Portugais de France se rapprochait davantage de celle des Français que de celle des Portugais du Portugal (cousins). Nous pouvons dans ce sens parler d’assimilation.
