Wellbeing

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

The school provides health services on both campuses with a school nurse who educates on health, provides information, listens, and maintains confidentiality. There is a program to prevent violence and sexual offenses, with designated contacts for students and parents in case of difficulty or emergency: the nurse, the Conseiller Principal d'Éducation, and Vie scolaire. The school runs a campaign against bullying and participates in the national program pHARe to address harassment in schools. The Conseil de la Vie Lycéenne (CVL) and the Conseil de Vie Collégienne (CVC) gather student representatives and staff and provide a forum to discuss life at the school, health, safety, and other welfare issues. The CVL/CVC projects focus on improving living conditions, listening to student needs, and influencing school life decisions. The school also offers access to student life services, clubs, and activities to support emotional well-being.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)

The pedagogical team addresses the educational needs of pupils with special educational needs, including those with learning difficulties or disabilities. The objectives include informing parents and teachers about the student's difficulties; coordinating between administration and teachers to target difficulties and propose strategies. They connect with various educational partners and ensure the application of French decrees in the context of a French overseas establishment, while also adapting to the German regulatory framework governing the school. The team assists when needed with drafting a PAP (Plan d'Accompagnement Personnalisé) for students with DYS (dyslexia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia, or attention disorders) and implementing a PPS (Projet Personnalisé de Scolarisation) for students with disabilities. They support parents in accompanying and monitoring their child's progress.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)

The lycée offers four language tracks at the lycée: the French Baccalaureate, the Abibac, the French International Baccalaureate, and the English section (section européenne anglais). The ELCE option (Option ELCE, enseignement de langues et cultures étrangères) is available for language and culture teaching. A European English section indicates a strong emphasis on English language and culture within the curriculum. Certifications in languages include Deutsches Sprachdiplom, the Cambridge certificate, and DELE for Spanish. The school's language program integrates English-language instruction through the European section and ELCE offerings.

Mental Wellbeing

A school nurse is on-site daily on both campuses, providing health education, information, listening, and confidentiality, and serving as a resource for student health. The nurse coordinates with other staff to address medical needs and monitor student well-being. The school runs prevention programs against violence and sexual offenses, with designated contacts such as the nurse, the Conseiller Principal d'Éducation, and Vie Scolaire for students and parents in case of difficulty or emergency. There is a campaign against harassment in the school, with reference to national guidance and the pHARe program. These provisions support students' mental well-being and safe learning environment.

Safeguarding

The school's life and welfare governance includes the Conseil pour la Vie Lycéenne (CVL) and the Conseil pour la Vie Collégienne (CVC), which bring together student representatives, parents, and staff to discuss life at the school, health, safety, and other welfare matters. The CVL/CVC operate to improve living conditions, enable listening and dialogue, and influence decisions affecting student welfare. In addition to on-site health and safeguarding contacts (the school nurse, the Conseiller Principal d'Éducation, and Vie Scolaire), the community can reach out through CVL to address concerns. The CVL has a designated contact email (cvl@lycee-jean-renoir.de) for student and parent inquiries. Harassment prevention is referenced in the school's safeguarding framework, with the anti-harassment program and the health service as additional safeguarding resources.

The AEFE can provide scholarships to French children living abroad to cover all or part of tuition, under certain conditions.

New families should apply before enrollment is confirmed for their child; the scholarship application must be renewed every year and filed within regulatory deadlines. The presence of scholarship students is checked at the start of the school year. A new feature this year is the possibility to submit online via SCOLAIDE, though paper applications at the Consulate General of France in Munich remain possible. Eligibility: candidate must be French, registered with the Consulate in the Foreigners' Registry, reside in the consular district, be enrolled at Lycée Jean Renoir at any level (kindergarten, elementary, middle or high school), and be at least 3 years old by December 31 of the current school year.
