==History, activities, and structure==
It was formed in 1975 from the merger of INS (the National Institute of Sport) and ENSEP (L'École Normale Supérieure d'Éducation Physique), and has roots in the 1817 Amoros Military Gymnasium.<ref name="google1"/> It trains athletes in 26 different sports.<ref>{{cite web|author=RICKI STEINRicki Stein|url=httphttps://articleswww.mcall.com/1985-/10-/25/sports/2502009_1_tomorrowfrench-gymnasticsnationals-gymnasticstake-teamon-privateus-clubswomen-today-tomorrow-gymnastics/ |title=French Nationals Take On U.sS.

It operates under the [[Minister of Youth Affairs and Sports (France)|French Ministry of Youth and Sport]], and functions based on centralized athletic partnerships with prominent high schools in Paris — such as [[Lycée Condorcet]], [[Lycée Saint-Louis]], [[Lycée Janson de Sailly]], [[General High School Claude Monet|GHS Claude Monet]], and The [[International School of Paris]] — with a measure of autonomy.<ref name="google1"/>
As a boarding school, it provides bedrooms divided into 2 buildings: from 15 years old to 17 years old and over 18 years old.
Athletes have school on site up to the baccalaureate as well as some higher education courses.
