City of Paris – public school enrolment (maternelle and élémentaire)
Official Free
About this service
To enrol a child in a public nursery or primary school in Paris for the first time, after a move or when leaving a private school, register online with a Mon Paris account (linked to FranceConnect) or at your arrondissement's town hall, with the family record book or birth certificate and a recent proof of address. The town hall issues a certificate naming the school; enrolment is final only after you meet the school director with proof of vaccinations, by June before the school year.
