Institution Saint Dominique de Neuilly

What Institution Saint Dominique de Neuilly does

Institution Saint-Dominique is a private Catholic educational institution located in Neuilly-sur-Seine, operating under an association with the French State and diocesan tutelage of the Diocese of Nanterre. The school delivers a continuous k-12 pathway spanning Maternelle (preschool, nearly 200 students), Élémentaire, Collège (around 800 students), Lycée, and an Internat, serving more than 2,000 students in total. Its core product is full-time Catholic education with integrated pastoral formation, language certifications, and university preparation, complemented by special-needs inclusion devices (UEMA Soleil for autism in preschool, DASED for elementary learning difficulties, ULIS for Collège, and Pépinières d'excellence scholarship for Lycée) and international programs (Lycée Suédois integrated since 2001-2002, Academica Dual Diploma for concurrent US High School Diploma, Erasmus+ consortium membership since February 2024, official UCAS Center).

The institution has been operating for over 160 years on a Dominican foundation, with diocesan supervision since 1983 and a current executive team led by chef d'établissement coordinateur Romuald Clérouin. Technology footprint consists of digital equipment for all Collège students (enabling hybrid teaching since 2013) and competency-based evaluations implemented across all subjects as of the 2025 rentrée; there is no proprietary software, app, or AI capability.

Revenue is generated almost entirely from tuition fees paid by families, with boarding options (internat, demi-pension, externat) and a need-based Pépinières d'excellence scholarship covering up to 95% of tuition for qualifying students. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer, relying on the institutional website, social channels (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn), parent information meetings, and earned media via Le Figaro rankings (4th private / 5th overall Lycée in France in 2026; 2nd college in 2021). Supplemental funding flows through the Fondation Saint Matthieu's jaidemonecole.org donation platform, supporting capital and pedagogical projects.
