Statutory education begins with primary (grade) school (« l'école primaire ») and is attended by children between the ages of six and 10 or 11.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━The École nationale d'administration or ÉNA, in Strasbourg (formerly in Paris), is a competitive-entrance college training top civil servants. Because so many ministers and high-ranking decision-makers are « énarques » (ex-students of ÉNA), the school has often been criticized for exercising too much influence, and French political life is perceived by some as being monopolized by the so-called « énarchie ». → CONCOURS* * *The French school system has three tiers: l'école maternelle (from the age of two); l'école primaire comprising cours préparatoire (CP), cours élémentaire 1 et 2 ( CE1, CE2), cours moyen 1 et 2 ( CM1, CM2); and l'école secondaire ( collège and lycée).

4 TGV
High speed train. France has Europe's oldest and most extensive network of dedicated high-speed railway lines. The TGV entered service in 1981, and the Paris-Lyon dedicated line was largely completed in 1983, bringing journey times betwen the two cities down to just 2 hours. At present, the network consists of some 1700 km (over 1000 miles) of dedicated high-speed track, comprising four routes radiating out from Paris. An "interconnection" route round the south and west of Paris allows high-speed connections between the routes, notably allowing north-south TGVs to avoid the centre of Paris. Depending on the stock and the route, TGVs travel at speeds up to 270 km/hr or 320 km/hr. The TGV holds the current officially recorded world rail speed record, of 574.8 km/hr (357.2 m.p.h.).
