It is the share of candidates who sat the general and technological baccalaureate (baccalauréat général et technologique), the exam that concludes high school, at the session shown, and passed it, as published by the French Ministry of Education (rates are rounded). Only schools with 50 or more candidates are ranked. Pass rates depend heavily on the students each school takes in; value added, ranked separately, takes this into account.

Value added, calculated by the French Ministry of Education, compares a school’s pass rate with the rate that could be expected given its students’ profile (age, social background, prior attainment): +5 means five points above that expected rate, −5 five points below. It measures what the school adds, not the level of its students.
