The Digital Educational Commons Forge has been available on the Apps Éducation portal since March 2024, enabling the creation of open educational resources. Nearly 7,000 projects have been developed there, around 300 of which are available to teachers via the Forge’s Resource Centre

The roadmap for digital commons is currently being finalised. It was developed collaboratively through numerous interviews, seminars and workshops involving stakeholders from the ecosystem.

A number of initiatives have been undertaken to support digital commons: EduUp now includes digital commons in its terms of reference; the incubator is supporting the scaling up of educational services using AI; several associations promoting digital educational commons (e.g. AEIF, La Nuit du Code, etc.) are receiving funding, support is being provided to certain EdTech companies to open-source their code (e.g. Code en bois), and digital commons are being promoted on the ‘Ressourcerie de la forge des communs numériques’ platform, which sometimes attracts tens of thousands of users.

During 2023, the Ministry carried out an analysis of the solutions already implemented by certain regions to provide digital teaching resources to teachers, as well as a survey of the expectations of local stakeholders, involving teachers, school librarians and inspectors. A prototype of how the ‘resource account’ would work was developed in the first quarter of 2024.

Standard clauses are systematically included in new contracts.

To date, 40% of current contracts contain accessibility clauses.

The TEDi robot scheme is being rolled out by local education authorities to pupils to help them stay in touch with their school.

Between 1,000 and 1,200 pupils receive a TEDi robot each month.

The technical guidelines, which are now legally enforceable, include a framework for responsible digital practices setting out the requirements for digital accessibility. A series of themed webinars has been scheduled for 2025, aimed at all users of the guidelines.

initial teacher training, the ‘Essentials’ programme underwent an initial pilot phase. In February 2026, more than 5,600 MEEF Master’s students at the INSPE tested the programme. This pilot scheme paves the way for the award of a certificate in professional digital skills within initial teacher training, as set out in the M2E Master’s programme content defined by the decree of 12 January 2026.

At the start of the 2023 academic year, the Pix+ Édu self-assessment programme was rolled out to all teachers and school counsellors (primary and secondary levels, state and private schools)

By November 2024, 46,000 teachers (5%) had started the programme and 46% had completed it. A dedicated Magistère portal supports the roll-out of the Pix+ Édu scheme.

The Pix+ Édu programmes, comprising a self-assessment programme and seven thematic programmes, were rolled out nationwide to all teachers and school counsellors in primary and secondary education, in both the public and private sectors, forming a structured programme for the development of professional digital skills. By February 2026, nearly 60,000 teachers and school counsellors, representing approximately 6.4% of the workforce, had enrolled in these courses. Since September 2025, digital skills certificates have been offered upon completion of each Pix+ Édu course, subject to a pass rate of over 50%, helping to recognise staff achievements. A dedicated section on the Magistère platform, now accessible in its new version, supports the roll-out of the Pix+ Édu scheme and helps to structure a range of continuing professional development opportunities available to staff. Access to Pix has now been simplified for staff through single sign-on (SSO) via the ARENA portal.

The first Pix+ Édu learning pathway dedicated to artificial intelligence will be rolled out in spring 2026 to support teachers as they adapt their teaching practices. The Pix+ Édu certification, under its revised terms, will resume from 2026. The Ministry is continuing its work on the regulatory recognition of the Reference Framework for Digital Skills in Education (CRCN-Édu).

The Guide to the Educational Use of Digital Technology, which is currently being finalised, will incorporate changes to the new curricula (particularly for maths in Cycle 3) and guidelines for the use of digital technology in schools.

It will form part of a framework for the sensible and ethical use of digital technology, in line with the framework for the use of AI in education, on which the Ethics Committee for Educational Data was consulted. Implementation kits for the framework for the use of AI in education have been developed in certain academic regions.

This guide is intended for Key Stages 3 and 4, with a focus on professional practices and cross-curricular and subject-specific skills.

It will provide guidance on generative AI, inclusion and differentiation, whilst taking into account issues relating to health and equality.

The report on the piloting of the robotics kit in Cycle 3 (2024–2025) will enrich the supplementary resources relating to practical, contextualised applications in mathematics and science, thereby facilitating the integration of STEM subjects into the curriculum.

Several communities have been established since 2023:

• the PERDIR community (secondary school management staff) on Magistre
• As part of the roll-out of the Éléa platform, the community of 200 designers of teaching resources that can be freely reused by any teacher
• As part of the development of knowledge on AI, the Community for Reflection on Education and Artificial Intelligence (CRÉIA) via Magistère.
• the School Assessment Council community,
• the Network of Designers community
• the AI Ambassadors community

The Monteil Mission has launched the ‘e-fran’ website, which presents the 22 projects evaluated by HCÉRES (the High Council for the Evaluation of Research and Higher Education) as well as the main findings of the research into new skills for vocational education (known as ‘ProFAN’). Both initiatives were funded under the PIA2 programme.

Following the success of the Artificial Intelligence Innovation Partnership (P2IA) for Cycle 2, a new P2IA was launched in September 2025 for Cycle 3, featuring six new resources in French, mathematics and modern languages.

Through the work of the GTnum, the third edition of the journal ‘Artificial Intelligence and Education: Research Contributions and Challenges for Public Policy’ was published during the AI Action Summit in February 2025. The edition is available in several languages to increase its international reach.

The assessment of resources, particularly in the TNE, has been carried out scientifically in collaboration with the IDEES laboratory, for example. This type of scientific assessment could serve as a use case for systematising the assessment

A third version of the technical guidelines was published in September 2025.

The Ministry has set up the ‘Scope’ service to facilitate the sharing of data relating to the organisation of secondary education (for example, timetable data).

The technical doctrine has been enforceable since 5 December 2025, following a decree of the Conseil d'Etat.

The ÉduConnect system has been rolled out in 80% of secondary schools.

With a view to enhancing the security of ÉduConnect, measures have been put in place for the start of the 2024 school year (stronger passwords, two-factor authentication, etc.).

The Ministry has carried out an urbanisation study to map out a roadmap for developing this repository in conjunction with existing business applications. This ensures the project can be launched within a complex ecosystem.

The Onde v2 project paves the way for a national repository of pupils and staff in primary education.

A joint effort between the Ministry, EdTech companies and research laboratories has led to the standardisation of descriptions for useful data models. This incremental standardisation, which forms part of the technical framework for digital technology in education, will improve the monitoring of learners and provide high-quality data to train and refine artificial intelligence systems, whilst ensuring strict compliance with the GDPR.

In order to simplify access to data, particularly for various administrative procedures, the Ministry has implemented an initial version of its API governance framework and drawn up an API roadmap for 2024–2027. The APIs are published on https://api.gouv.fr.

With regard to MCP (Model Context Protocol) infrastructure, a trial has been conducted on open data with the deployment of an MCP server on data.education.gouv.fr
