Personalized support is integrated into the student schedule. It takes place over 72 hours per year, or 2 hours per week on average. This is teaching time separate from the time for class. Personalized support must therefore allow students to develop their basic skills and strengthen their working methods. To help students achieve their full potential, we put in place action plans to help special needs students. Four main types exist: – PPRE: Programme Personnalisé de Réussite Educative. In a nutshell, it is an action plan on a limited period 5 to 7 weeks that targets a specific area or skill (writing, oral skills, behavior, focus). – PAP: Plan d’Accompagnement Personnalisé. Mostly for students suffering from dyslexia, dyspraxia. Special arrangements can be made such as alleviating the homework, allowing extra time for tasks, increasing the font size and so on… – PAI: Projet d’Accueil Individualisé. For students suffering from a chronical disease or allergy. – PPS: Projet Personnalisé de Scolarisation. For students suffering from a handicap.
