Against every compared French town with a collège or lycée within 5 km.
The grade uses every collège and lycée within 5 km of Saint-Just-Saint-Rambert with 2025 results and value added, public and private under contract: 3 collèges (444 candidates) and 2 lycées (523). Each school’s pass rate and value added are compared with every French school of its kind, then weighted by candidates; collèges and lycées count equally. A school can count for several towns.
The line is the typical French school for each social position index; the band holds the middle two-thirds. A dot’s color is the ministry’s value added.
Schools whose pupils come from better-off homes usually get higher pass rates. The ministry’s value added already allows for that, and for pupils’ ages: of the 3 schools here, 0 are 2 points or more above the expected rate and 2 2 points or more below.
| School | IPS | Pass rate | Value added (points) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Collège Anne FrankBrevet · Public | 119 | 96% | +1 pt |
| Collège Saint-JosephBrevet · Private | 121.2 | 93% | −2 pts |
| Collège Jacques PrévertBrevet · Public | 100.9 | 83% | −5 pts |
IPS: DEPP’s social position index, 2024–25, from parents’ occupations (France’s average pupil ≈ 100). It describes; it doesn’t grade. Value added: the school’s pass rate minus the rate expected from its pupils’ backgrounds and ages.
The dashed circle is 5 km (3 miles) from the town’s point, the center of where its residents live; the black outline is the commune.
Points: the Ministry of Education’s school directory.
Each with its 2025 result and its value added: how far its pass rate is above or below what the ministry expected from its pupils. 3 collèges and 2 lycées are in the grade. Distances from the town’s point.
Results: DEPP, brevet (IVAC) and bac (IVAL) 2025. Not in the grade: a school with results but no value added published (often a small one). Primary schools: the commune’s own, from the school directory.

Bonson has the best-graded schools nearby (B). Towns within 10 km of each other share some of the same schools.
They grade B, better than those around 57% of compared French towns and #31 of 50 in Loire. In 2025, 90.4% of the 444 candidates at the three collèges within 5 km passed the brevet (−1.8 pts against the expected rate). At the lycées, 94.5% of 523 candidates passed the bac (−1.5 pts).
Against the expected rate, Collège Anne Frank (public, 0.2 mi): 96% of 199 candidates passed the brevet in 2025, +1 pt against the rate its pupils’ backgrounds predict. On the raw pass rate alone the order can differ; value added is the fairer comparison.
Against the expected rate, Lycée François Mauriac - Forez (public, 2.2 mi): 98% of 436 candidates passed the general and technological bac in 2025, as expected against the rate its pupils’ backgrounds predict.
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.
No: France doesn’t publish primary results school by school. Saint-Just-Saint-Rambert has 9 primary schools (écoles maternelles and élémentaires), listed above.
