Notre-Dame "Les Oiseaux"

What Notre-Dame "Les Oiseaux" does

Notre-Dame "Les Oiseaux" (legal name: Ensemble Scolaire Notre-Dame « Les Oiseaux ») is a French Catholic educational institution headquartered at 106 Grande Rue, Verneuil-sur-Seine, Île-de-France. Founded in 1929 and operating under Association loi 1901 as a non-profit, the school signed a contract d'association with the French state in 1960, integrating it into the public education service. It serves approximately 3,000 students across a fully integrated pathway spanning Maternelle (187), Élémentaire (577), Collège (1,012), Lycée (1,091 including 42 in the American High School program), and Supérieur (177 including 61 apprentices), with boarding facilities (Internat) for primary through higher-education students.

The institution's product offering is organized into core educational programs (Primaire, Collège, Lycée Français, Lycée International, Supérieur), five BTS specialties (Commerce International, Communication, MCO, Tourisme, Chimie), a one-year Bachelor RDCM degree, supplementary preparation programs for higher-education entrance exams (Médecine, Ingénieur, ECG/Grandes Écoles, Sciences Po/IEP, STMG), and auxiliary services such as boarding and a branded merchandise shop. The underlying technology stack consists of a WordPress-based public website with a virtual tour capability hosted on OVH infrastructure, plus a third-party e-commerce storefront (Market Factory). Three institutional certifications — E3D, Edusanté, and Ouverture Internationale — reinforce positioning across sustainability, student health, and international exposure.

Revenue mechanics rest on three streams: recurring tuition fees from enrolled families across all levels, corporate allocations of 13% of the taxe d'apprentissage collected via the SOLTÉA platform operated by Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations, and tax-deductible donations (66% deduction) from families and supporters. Distribution is direct-to-consumer through the school's website, where families download level-specific enrollment dossiers. The institution is governed by an association board and led by Guillaume Lesage as Chef d'Établissement Coordonnateur. No external investment, M&A activity, or parent company structures have been identified; the entity is privately held under non-profit governance.
