Beskrivelse av organisasjon

Collège Jules Verne is a public lower secondary school located in Bourges (south of Centre-Val de Loire region – France). It welcomes 550 pupils in 2025.
In France, lower secondary studies last four years (classes de 6ème, 5ème, 4ème and 3ème) and are for children between 11 and 15 years of age, following five years of education at elementary level. The education provided at collège level complies with national programmes fixed by the State, in compliance with the “Common Base of Knowledge and Skills” that all pupils should have mastered by the end of their compulsory education. In addition, a range of special programmes seek to enable in-depth discovery of careers and training courses along with initial vocational training.
Our collège follows 3 main objectives :
Objective 1: Ensure the acquisition of the fundamentals for all pupils
- Expressing oneself in writing and speaking ("Developing oral competences")
Objective 2: Act on the school climate as a factor for success
- The Citizen's Pathway ("Our school, a place of citizen experimentation")
- The school as a place of community life ("Exchanging with abroad")
Objective 3: Remain a college committed to his territory and the world
- Remain a college known and recognised in its catchment area
- To let ourselves be surprised: culture in the school ("With our own resources: the Artistic and Cultural Education Pathway")
To achieve these objectives, our school develops several projects and partnerships all year long.
