A building for the next generation: Collège Claudine Hermann

The new secondary school, which was opened in autumn 2024, pays tribute to Claudine Hermann, a pioneer for equality in science and technology. Located on the edge of a park in Massy, the college blends perfectly into the surrounding green space. The new secondary school for 800 pupils is a model for future school buildings. Designed by the Ameller Dubois architectural firm, the Collège meets high standards of energy efficiency, ecological construction, and identity-forming design. The hallmark of the new school building is its horizontally layered render facade with rounded corners.

Stéphane Védrenne and Paul Pressensé on Claudine Hermann, the namesake of the new secondary school:

“She was also known for her strong environmental awareness.
I hope she would be proud that this building now carries her name.”
