How to read these numbers
What this data can and can’t tell you
•
The brevet. The diplôme national du brevet, taken at 15 at the end of collège: written exams in French, maths, history-geography, sciences and an oral, with the year’s coursework. We use the share of candidates who pass.
•
The bac. The baccalauréat at 18: general and technological in most lycées, vocational in lycées professionnels. Each is compared only with schools of its own kind.
•
Value added. The ministry’s own measure (IVAC for collèges, IVAL for lycées): a school’s pass rate minus the rate expected from its pupils’ social background and age. It is half of each school’s score in the grade.
•
Social position index (IPS). A summary of pupils’ family backgrounds from parents’ occupations, about 100 for the average French pupil. Shown for context; never graded.
•
Within 5 km. French families don’t pick a school by the town’s name: a collège serves a catchment set by the département, a lycée one set by the académie. So the grade uses the schools within 5 km of where the town’s residents live, and neighboring towns can share them.
•
Primary schools. Not graded: national tests (évaluations nationales) aren’t published school by school. The commune’s primary schools are listed.
They grade C, better than those around 26% of compared French towns and #73 of 93 in Gironde. In 2025, 88.3% of the 2,612 candidates at the 22 collèges within 5 km passed the brevet (−2 pts against the expected rate). At the lycées, 91.6% of 5,310 candidates passed the bac (−2.9 pts).
Which collège near Floirac does best?
Against the expected rate, Collège Blanqui (public, 2.8 mi): 88% of 67 candidates passed the brevet in 2025, +6 pts against the rate its pupils’ backgrounds predict. On the raw pass rate alone the order can differ; value added is the fairer comparison.
Which lycée near Floirac does best?
Against the expected rate, Lycée professionnel Émile Combes (public, 2.4 mi): 91% of 65 candidates passed the vocational bac in 2025, +4 pts against the rate its pupils’ backgrounds predict.
How do children get a place at a collège near Floirac?
A state collège takes the children of its catchment area (secteur), which the département council sets; families can ask the académie for an exception (dérogation). Lycée places go through the académie’s Affelnet assignment. Private schools under contract admit pupils themselves.
Are primary schools in Floirac graded?
No: France doesn’t publish primary results school by school. Floirac has 14 primary schools (écoles maternelles and élémentaires), listed above.
