The grade uses every collège and lycée within 5 km of Saint-Max with 2025 results and value added, public and private under contract: 16 collèges (1,829 candidates) and 17 lycées (3,115). 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. 3 schools have results but no value added published, so they are listed, not graded. A school can count for several towns.

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.

Questions about schools near Saint-Max

Are the schools near Saint-Max good?

They grade B, better than those around 63% of compared French towns and #13 of 53 in Meurthe-et-Moselle. In 2025, 90.6% of the 1,829 candidates at the 16 collèges within 5 km passed the brevet (−1.3 pts against the expected rate). At the lycées, 94.4% of 3,115 candidates passed the bac (as expected).

Which collège near Saint-Max does best?

Against the expected rate, Collège Albert Camus (public, 1.9 mi): 72% of 82 candidates passed the brevet in 2025, +5 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 Saint-Max does best?

Against the expected rate, Lycée professionnel Pierre de Coubertin (private, 1.9 mi): 96% of 69 candidates passed the vocational bac in 2025, +6 pts against the rate its pupils’ backgrounds predict.

How do children get a place at a collège near Saint-Max?

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 Saint-Max graded?

No: France doesn’t publish primary results school by school. Saint-Max has 5 primary schools (écoles maternelles and élémentaires), listed above.
