School map of public colleges

Public colleges welcome students living in their recruitment sector as a matter of priority. This area is determined by the student’s place of residence. It is therefore neither the primary school attended nor the place of professional practice of the parents that determine the sector college(s). It is the departmental council that defines **the “public college school map”, i.e. the recruitment sectors of the various public colleges of the department**, specifying in which public college(s) are to be educated students who live in a particular area of the department. When this promotes social diversity, the departmental council may decide that the same recruitment sector is shared by several public colleges (in this case we refer to as “multi-college sector”). Reference: Education Code, Article L213-1 (‘https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/codes/article_lc/LEGIARTI000031104883’) The school card is taken into account by DASEN in preparing the assignment of students using the Affelnet 6e **.** In order to automate the reconciliation between the address of the pupils and their sector college(s), DASEN may import a school card file into Affelnet 6e, provided that this file has been previously transmitted by the departmental council in a harmonised format, defined at national level. The published dataset results from the national aggregation of departmental files **used by DASEN to automatically determine the student sector college(s)**. For 2023, this dataset covers 90 departments (out of a total of 101), indeed: — on the one hand, 10 departments have not yet integrated their school map data into the Affelnet 6e application (Charente-Maritime, Côtes-d’Armor, Corse-du-Sud, Finistère, Guadeloupe, Haute-Corse, Haute-Marne, Martinique, Mayotte and Morbihan). However, municipalities in those departments are included in the dataset on the ground that they are covered by the sector of a college located in a neighbouring department and which has a school card file; — on the other hand, in the department of Gironde, although a school card was imported into Affelnet 6e, the automatic determination feature of the sector college was not used. Therefore, since this departmental file might not have the degree of reliability expected, it was chosen not to integrate it into the dataset.
