Working as a school supervisor in France
Search for assistant d'éducation, AED, surveillant, surveillant d'internat or vie scolaire, and in private schools surveillant or éducateur de vie scolaire. In public schools, AEDs are contract staff hired by the head of the school, on fixed-term contracts that can be renewed and, after several years, converted to a permanent contract. You need the baccalauréat or an equivalent qualification. Boarding posts are often given priority to students. A separate scheme, AED en préprofessionnalisation, lets students preparing to teach work part-time in schools. Do not confuse the role with AESH, which supports pupils with disabilities. You need the right to work in France, and good spoken French.
How to read these figures
The salary shown is an average, not a median: a few high salaries pull the average up. It is net pay before income tax, converted to full time.
The gross figure is an estimate: it applies 2026 employee contributions for a private-sector worker to the net salary. It leaves out bonuses, overtime and health insurance.
Salaries are from 2024 while the minimum wage is the 2026 one, so the comparison gives an order of magnitude.
