Avoid this school—seriously!! It’s nothing but nonsense all year: zero real help finding an apprenticeship. I already had one, and even I was treated more stringently than classmates who didn’t have one. Or else the teaching team approves an apprenticeship early on, only to tell them halfway through the year that they won’t get their diploma because the missions don’t match the required skills—missions that were approved in the first place… We’re informed on the day of the exams that we’re not allowed to leave the school from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., so there’s no way to buy food. We’re told we’ll get our exam results in early August, but we only received them two months later, with half-baked explanations that derailed a lot of people’s search for an apprenticeship or a school for the next year. We get our grades sheet only at the very end of the year, and it has errors you can’t fix. I got a 0 for English even though I was supposed to get a 16; as they put it, “unfortunately, we can’t do anything about it anymore.” They send a copy-pasted message to an entire class telling them they’re being held back, with no explanation and no scores for the exams they have to retake—because “they can’t provide them,” except that after contacting IFOCOP (our certifying body), it turned out only the school can communicate them. They announce language trips that several students had signed up for specifically at the school a week before leaving—except we’re the ones who have to book our tickets, and a week in advance is impossible. Absence warnings were handed out to random people who weren’t actually absent, “as an example,” to quote them. Their only “defense” for this chaotic year is counterattacking—no excuses, no real solutions. And let’s not even get started on the Pokémon cards scandal, after which the principal basically only said “me, me, me.” You really get the feeling the school doesn’t care at all about our future and is just pretending. It’s great to have a teaching team that’s friendly and acts like “buddies,” but it would be better if it were sincere and actually productive. I’m disgusted by the image I had of this school and by what it turns out to be. Don’t let them take you for a ride—students, you deserve better! I’ve seen and heard about other “meh” schools, but none of them made me want to report them to student associations and the rectorate like this one… To top it off, we got our student cards in March, and our exam conditions were awful: we had to create a website, and there was a WordPress bug across all campuses, so the deadline was pushed to 11:00 p.m.—as if everyone could work at home all day. I was also warned about the start date the day before, because they’d forgotten to include me on the lists. I could go on like this—there are still a dozen examples—and this school will always find some ridiculous way to justify it instead of admitting the truth: it should be shut down. When you play with young people’s futures like that, you don’t deserve to keep functioning. Save yourself this nightmare—seriously, forget this school.
