The official and final results rates for the 2021 session were unveiled this Saturday. These are the final rates after the oral exams.
It is again an excellent vintage this year. Nearly 94% of the 732,800 candidates for the 2021 baccalaureate were received at the end of the first remedial session, down slightly from 2020, the Ministry of National Education announced on Saturday.

The June session allows 687,200 candidates to graduate, the ministry said in a statement. “The overall success rate for this session is down compared to 2020 (-1.9 points)”, which had been a record year, he said. These results come at the end of a second school year severely disrupted by the health crisis. This year, in still exceptional circumstances, the continuous assessment represents at least 82% of the final grade in the general and technological baccalaureate during this session because table tests have been canceled.
This first edition of the “bac Blanquer”, resulting from the 2018 reform, has been turned upside down. The national specialty tests, which were to be held in March, could not be organized. Only philosophy and the “great oral”, this great novelty desired by the Minister of National Education Jean-Michel Blanquer, could be maintained in final exams. For the rest, the score harmonization and deliberation juries met to look into the students’ files. A foreshadowing of what the bac will be in the future. The high school students have also benefited from arrangements to take into account the disruptions in teaching this year. In philosophy, in particular, the best mark was retained, between that obtained in the test and that of the continuous assessment.
The success rate in the general route is 97.6%. In detail, it stands at 94% for the technological series and 86.7% for the vocational baccalaureate. The percentage of baccalauréat holders in a generation amounts to 83.1% this year.
In 2020, 95.7% of candidates had obtained the baccalaureate at the end of the catch-up, an absolute record. Due to the coronavirus crisis, the final exams had been canceled and only the marks of the first and second trimesters had been counted for the issuance of the exam.
