Collège Sainte-Marie
Marignane, Bouches-du-Rhône
Schools around Marignane C+ better than 43% of compared French towns
Nearly every candidate at Collège Sainte-Marie passes, as expected for pupils from more advantaged homes than at 90% of French collèges (IPS 128.6).
- 98% of its 216 candidates passed the brevet in 2025, higher than at 86% of French collèges.
- The ministry publishes no value added for its brevet.
- Its pupils’ family background index (IPS) is 128.6, more advantaged than at 90% of French collèges. Shown for context, never graded.
- It is in no town’s School Grade: that takes a published pass rate and value added.
- A private school under contract with the state: it follows the national curriculum and sets its own admissions.
Value added, in plain words
Why a high pass rate isn’t the whole story.
The ministry publishes no value added for this school’s brevet (usually because there are too few candidates), so only its pass rate is shown.
A school with advantaged pupils passes nearly everyone, whatever it does; one with disadvantaged pupils can teach very well and still pass fewer. Value added takes the pupils out of the comparison. Near 100% the measure has little room: a school expected to pass 99% can’t show much above it.
French schools get no letter of their own: the ministry’s value added is the fairer measure, shown as it is. A town’s School Grade blends the pass rates and value added of every collège and lycée within 5 km of it.

Side by side with Bouches-du-Rhône’s collèges
2025The 177 collèges in Bouches-du-Rhône: further right, more advantaged pupils; higher, more passed. Backgrounds explain much of the spread, which is why value added, the colour, is the fairer comparison. Sainte-Marie isn’t among them: only schools with a published value added are compared.
