What etablissement scolaire saint andre does

Ecole et collège Saint-André is a private Catholic school operating under contract with the French state ('établissement sous contrat d'association'), located at 5 place de l'ancien marché in Nogent-sur-Marne (Val-de-Marne), in the eastern suburbs of Paris. Founded in 1847 by the Congrégation des Filles de la Croix (Daughters of the Cross), the school serves students from maternelle through 3ème across a single campus, comprising a primary section ('école') of 8 classes and a middle school ('collège') covering grades 6ème through 3ème, including a 4/3ème Prépa Métiers professional discovery class. It operates under the ecclesiastical authority of the Diocese of Créteil and is governed financially by the volunteer-run OGEC Saint-André association, which also serves as employer of non-teaching staff. The head of establishment is Catherine Schlegel (Cheffe d'établissement).

The school's service offering centers on values-based Catholic education with a human-scale, familial atmosphere, supplemented by the Cambridge English option (KET/PET) for which it is an authorized examination center, a 4/3ème Prépa Métiers class, extracurricular sports (football, rowing, kayaking, badminton, basketball, handball, volleyball) under UGSEL, arts programs (drawing, theatre), pastoral activities, before/after-school périscolaire care, and a CDI media library. The technology footprint is conventional: Plone CMS website, EcoleDirecte parent-student portal, classroom computers and projectors, 50+ student computers, a digital whiteboard, and two 3D printers (including one latest-generation). Catering is outsourced to API Restauration, which prepares on-site meals using 80% fresh, seasonal, and local/reasoned/organic products.

The business model is subscription-recurring: annual tuition fees ('frais de scolarité') paid by families, with pricing not publicly disclosed and communicated internally via the EcoleDirecte platform. Distribution is direct enrollment at the campus, supplemented by open house events ('portes ouvertes'), word-of-mouth within the Nogent-sur-Marne Catholic community, and APEL parent association outreach. The school targets families in Nogent-sur-Marne and surrounding communes seeking faith-based education with documented academic outcomes — including 100% DNB pass rates in 2019 and 2025, 100% KET and 95.5% PET Cambridge pass rates, and approximately 70% historical Cambridge success. There is no external private equity, venture capital, or public-market backing.

Broad incumbents

• Saint-Louis de Gonzague (Franklin), Paris: Historic Jesuit private Catholic school in central Paris serving K-12 under state contract. Comparable as a well-established Catholic établissement sous contrat, offering an analogous curriculum plus Cambridge/IB-style academic credentials to fee-paying families.
• Sainte-Geneviève (Ginette), Versailles: Large private Catholic day school/lycée in Versailles with national reputation. Comparable as a French private Catholic institution under state contract operating in the greater Paris region, though at much larger scale than Saint-André.
• Saint-Sulpice (Paris): Long-standing Catholic école/collège in central Paris connected to the parish of Saint-Sulpice. Shares the model of a parish-anchored Catholic establishment delivering maternelle through 3ème under the autorité diocésaine.

Direct peers

• Ensemble scolaire Bossuet (Meaux): Catholic under-contract école-collège-lycée in Meaux (Seine-et-Marne), part of the Enseignement Catholique network. Directly comparable as an OGEC-managed diocesan school of similar size delivering the same DNB pathway in the Île-de-France region.
• La Salle Passy-Buzenval (Rueil-Malmaison): Private Catholic K-12 establishment in the Paris western suburbs run by the La Salle network under state contract. Closely comparable in size, tuition model, curriculum (DNB, Cambridge-style options), and ecclesiastical affiliation to Saint-André.

Others

• Apprentis d'Auteuil: Large Catholic foundation running schools, foster care, and family services across France. Adjacent rather than directly competitive, but uses a comparable Catholic values-driven educational model and partners with OGEC-style governance, making it a thematic and ecosystem peer.
