France

EU-level AI literacy obligations and educator guidance apply, but UNESCO evidence reviewed here does not support classifying France as having an implemented national K-12 AI curriculum.

Policy evidence brief

France

Downgraded from S3. France appears in UNESCO's broader reported-awareness list, not in the final implemented or in-development curriculum table cited for S3/S2 classification. EU AI Act Article 4 and EU education guidance still support S2.
