Student life
A dynamic student life to improve students’ health and well-being
Preventive medicine for students
Since 2009, IPL employs doctors in charge of preventive medicine for students of the 4 different schools. The doctor carries out students’ medical check-ups, and actions to raise health awareness and take preventative measures. They also take part in monitoring health issues identified in the student population.
Dr. Aline ABADIE and Dr. Justine BRUNET have a medical practice in each school.
Student well-being
Students are experiencing increasingly serious stress-related issues (National Student Health Survey). IPL’s schools are heavily focused on improving the well-being of their students and as a result, have set up a joint review committee for this purpose.
IPL takes actions to raise awareness but also to train supervisors in how to detect signs in students and then assess situations to identify the course of action to be taken. For many years, IPL has been running workshops led by an expert in this field, to share experiences. The groups always include a mix of participants from across the different schools which encourages individuals to speak more openly.
