Against every compared French town with a collège or lycée within 5 km.
The grade uses every collège and lycée within 5 km of Caudebec-lès-Elbeuf with 2025 results and value added, public and private under contract: 7 collèges (810 candidates) and 4 lycées (818). 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 10 schools here, 3 are 2 points or more above the expected rate and 3 2 points or more below.

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. 7 collèges and 4 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.

1 No lycée with results within 5 km: that town’s grade uses its collèges alone.

They grade C, better than those around 25% of compared French towns and #48 of 75 in Seine-Maritime. In 2025, 82.3% of the 810 candidates at the seven collèges within 5 km passed the brevet (−1.5 pts against the expected rate). At the lycées, 91.2% of 818 candidates passed the bac (−2.3 pts).
Against the expected rate, Collège Jacques-Yves Cousteau (public, 0.3 mi): 77% of 82 candidates passed the brevet in 2025, +8 pts 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 privé Fénelon (private, 0.6 mi): 100% of 127 candidates passed the general and technological bac in 2025, +2 pts 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. Caudebec-lès-Elbeuf has 7 primary schools (écoles maternelles and élémentaires), listed above.
