What time do french schools open and close?

French school hours vary depending on the school, grade level, and even the region. There's no single, nationwide schedule. However, a general timeframe would be:

* Opening: Typically between 8:00 AM and 8:30 AM.

* Closing: Typically between 4:00 PM and 5:00 PM.

However, this is a broad estimate. Some schools might start earlier or later, and the afternoon closing time might be influenced by extracurricular activities. Elementary schools (école primaire) often have shorter days than secondary schools (collège and lycée).
