Promoting equal access to educational resources

Elancourt, France

Best practice - Education

To promote equal access to educational resources, the City of Elancourt offers online tutoring to students facing learning challenges, accessible throughout their studies. The online tutoring, available on a tablet, offers students a variety of resources (audio, video, exercises) that allow students to choose the method most adapted to their needs. The resources are also available to teachers, who can make recommendations and track students’ progress online.

Personalized coaching on the platform is also available for middle-school and high school students ahead of national exams. With individual tablets offered by the city, all students can use the platform at home, thus reducing inequalities in academic success. The City has also appointed a coordinator to support families with children with disabilities along the educational continuum.
