Detailed introduction:
District system can be traced back to the first French Empire. Napoleon I issued a decree on the operation of Imperial University, which divided the whole education system into universities, high schools, junior high schools and primary schools, and divided 29 school districts (académie) nationwide based on the jurisdiction of cour dappel.
The school district committee is managed by the school district director (recteur). At present, France is divided into 35 university districts, of which 26 are located in France and 9 are located in French overseas territories.
School district organization settings:
School districts generally correspond to large areas and consist of one to several provinces. In every province in a large area, school districts have national education bureaus. The head of the school district is the head of the school district. He is the representative of the Minister of Education in each school district.
Under the head of the school district, there is a secretary-general in charge of the administrative work of the school district, the directors of the provincial education bureaus are responsible for the administrative affairs of the primary and secondary schools in the province, and the inspectors of various disciplines are responsible for the education and teaching affairs of the school.
The organizational structure of each school district is different, but basically there are school district director secretariat, general secretariat, office, various technical consultants, provincial education bureau, university affairs office, personnel office, examination office and other departments. Among the national 3 1 school districts, the Paris school district enjoys a special status, and the government has specially added the school district director in charge of primary and secondary school affairs and the deputy school district director in charge of university affairs.

There are 26 school districts in France, which are responsible for implementing the central principles and policies, executing the orders of ministers, dealing with personnel issues, informing the superiors of the situation in their school districts, and coordinating all kinds of education in their school districts. School districts, in particular, have a greater responsibility for secondary education. The campus has inspectors in charge of all aspects of work.
