Collège Françoise Dupont

"I've had enough of being shut up at home by my dad. I want to meet people and make friends! Go to a normal school like everyone else!"

- Adrien

 is a public secondary school (collège in French) that Marinette and her classmates attend.

''Note: The French word "collège" does not have the same meaning as the English word "college." In France, collège is for French grades six (ages 11-12) to nine (ages 14-15). The American equivalent would be Middle School or Junior High School.''

Appearance
The exterior of the school is tan with a slate blue cobbled roof, and the building is three stories tall.

Entrance
The front of the building has eight large arched windows, each slightly inset with a striped design above them. The steps leading up to the entrance door widen as they approach the sidewalk, and vice versa towards the entrance. The double entrance doors are dark oak, with grey handles. Above the doors is a white banner with red outline hanging down. Above the banner is a large circular window, four rectangular windows, and a smaller circular window on each side.

Courtyard
The entrance to the courtyard has a diagonal black and white checkerboard pattern, with a slate cream under this design. On either side of the entrance doors is a wooden bench, and two chalkboards

The courtyard is made up of grey concrete, with white lines painted on to make a basketball court. On either side of the courtyard is a basketball hoop hanging by white rope. There is also a set of green metal stairs on either side of the courtyard, leading up to the second floor rooms. Next to the stairs are green support pillars, supporting the platforms above.

Second Floor
The second floor has a green overhang, slate cream walls, and thin green metal pillars about for structural support of the overhang. The platform jutting out from the wall, designed to get around the second floor, is made of a green metal.

The second floor also has the entrances to the various classrooms. Most of the classrooms have large windows and a birch door. Other rooms have no inward windows and a dark oak door with a window. At the bottom left of the stairs leading to the library is the headmaster's office.

Third Floor
The third floor has only one room, the Library. The stairs leading up to the library are a light slate cream, with a slate orange and light brown banister. Just underneath the slight overhang of the banister is small white stone rectangles, positioned evenly throughout. Just at the apex of the two stairs is a stone design of a fleur de lis, with a downward-facing bow and flowers within the bow. The doors to the library are dark oak, with large windows and no discernible handles.

Trivia

 * In the English dub, Alya reveals she and her class are 10th graders when she finds Marinette's history book in "The Pharaoh".
 * "10th grade" may refer to the American education system of 10th grade, consisting of ages 15-16, or to the British education system of 10th year, consisting of ages 14-15.
 * As Alix turned 15 in "Timebreaker", and France colléges have students until that age, it most likely indicates that it follows the British system.
 * In the Korean and French dubs, Alya says they are 9th graders.
 * Théo Barbot has been seen at the collège, but it is uncertain whether he is a student, a staff member, or visitor.
 * The collège is located near the Eiffel Tower, in front of a park, and across the street from Tom & Sabine Boulangerie Patisserie.
 * The collège's name is most likely a tribute to the real name of Fantômette, the first female superhero of French literature.
 * The collège has been part of multiple akumatized villains attacks.
 * In "Horrificator", the building is covered in Horrificator's goo.
 * In both "Ladybug & Cat Noir (Origins - Part 1)" and "Stoneheart (Origins - Part 2)", doors and walls are broken and smashed by Stoneheart.
 * In the former, specifically, cameras are also destroyed.
 * In "Reflekta", almost all of the students and staff are turned into Reflekta's likeness.
 * As mentioned in "Reflekta", the collège has at least eighteen classes.
 * A class photo from a previous year reveals that Miss Bustier's class that year included Marinette, Chloé, Sabrina, Rose, Juleka, Max, Kim, and Nathaniel.
