This ranking covers the 89 vocational high schools in Pays de la Loire, public and state-contracted private, that had 30 or more candidates in the 2025 session and whose value added is published. When two schools are tied, the one with more candidates comes first.
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.
