COLLEGE YVES KLEIN

description of organisation

Our structure is a public school (collège) for students from 11 to 15 years old. 50 teachers are dedicated to provide 26 hours of classes each week to every division : french, mathematics, history and geography, sciences, foreign languages, sports, art, music... are the main topics studied here. About 800 pupils attend classes in our school. They come from villages around La Colle-Sur-Loup. It's a peri-urban town well deserved by buses, close to a train station, an airport and nearby Nice (30 minutes by bus). We are located in the pre-alpes, close to the sea and the mountains : we do have a lot of tourism all year long. The population is mainly from medium-high socio-professional categories (engineers, shop owners, ...). We also have few students coming from more fragile categories and travellers.
