Paul Valéry school group ( La Cité scolaire Paul Valéry) is composed of a middle school and a high school. The school also welcomes intensive two -year post baccalaureate courses designed to prepare selected students for entry to the «Grandes Ecoles».
Our school is located in the south east of the 12th district of Paris, near the Bois de Vincennes.
There are 445 students in the middle school, and 921 students in the High school.

Paul Valéry school is well-known for its training course in cinema. It also provides students with a range of sections.
For instance in the middle school, the students can have the opportunity to join the European section ( from year 8 to year 10). There is also a swimming section ( from year 7 to year 10). Achieving excellence in sport is really important in our school. Indeed students with a good level of sports practise and registered with a sport club are given the possibility to have an adaptated school timetable. These classes are called «CHASE»: Classe à horaires aménagés sportifs d’excellence.

Moreover inclusive education is essential in our school. A «UPE2A class» has been created to welcome non-French speaking students. Thanks to this structure within our school, the students can be immersed in some regular paced French classes with the other students.
A localized unit welcomes students with special educational needs, and more specifically children with autism. This structure is called ULIS (unités localisées pour l’inclusion scolaire).
In the High School:
Paul Valéry High school offers excellence in sports with badminton and swimming sections. There are European sections in English and in Italian, training courses in Cinema and Arts. And a « UPE2A class » welcomes non-French speaking students.

Paul Valery School group is to undergo some changes in the years to come. As a matter of fact, renovation work will soon be carried out with the aim of setting up the first artificial intelligence campus in France. Our school is looking to the future. Since 2018, the Fablab has been an innovative project bringing together students of different backgrounds and ages. It has become a space dedicated to computer science, innovation, and digital creation.

Raising awareness of A.I among the public ( students, educational community, Paris inhabitants…) is the aim of this future A.I Campus.
