Access to Pronote at Jules Ferry College in Aurillac does not go through a direct link to the Index Éducation platform. The institution uses the regional ENT Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes as a single entry point, which modifies the login procedure compared to a standard Pronote with open access.
Authentication via the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes ENT: the technical mechanism
Jules Ferry College hosts its Pronote instance behind the regional ENT portal. Specifically, the technical URL 0150647x.index-education.net exists, but direct access through this means is not the method provided by the institution. The redirection goes through the domain jules-ferry-aurillac.ent.auvergnerhonealpes.fr, which centralizes authentication.

This architectural choice has a direct consequence: Pronote credentials do not function autonomously. The username/password pair distributed at the beginning of the school year is used to log into the ENT, and it is the ENT that then transmits a session token to Pronote. No additional input is required once the passage through the ENT is validated.
We recommend not saving a shortcut to the URL index-education.net in your favorites. If you attempt to access it directly, the page will display a login form (Parents area or Students area), but the expected login method remains that via the ENT. Going through a direct access may generate session errors or authentication refusals.

For families discovering the procedure, the connection to Pronote at Jules Ferry College Aurillac details the complete steps from the ENT homepage to the Pronote area.
Pronote login process from the Jules Ferry College ENT portal
The homepage of the ENT at Jules Ferry College displays a visual of pedagogical continuity related to Pronote, inherited from the COVID-19 period. This visual remains the most reliable reference for families. A click on it initiates the redirection to the Pronote space corresponding to the connected profile.
The process is divided into three steps:
- Access the ENT portal via jules-ferry-aurillac.ent.auvergnerhonealpes.fr and enter your ENT credentials (those provided by the college at the beginning of the year).
- From the ENT dashboard, locate the “Access Pronote” button or visual on the institution’s homepage.
- Click on this link: the redirection is automatic, and Pronote opens to the corresponding space (Parents, Students, or Guardians) without needing to enter the password again.
The ENT does not only serve as a gateway to Pronote. It also centralizes internal messaging, administrative documents, and college information. Familiarizing yourself with this portal avoids multiplying entry points.
“In the Classroom” Mode: a restricted access to know
The Pronote login interface at Jules Ferry College offers an “In the Classroom” mode. This mode intentionally limits access to entering absences and the homework diary. It is designed for use on a shared workstation in the institution, where the confidentiality of grades and personal information must be preserved.
Do not select this mode from a personal computer. You would lose access to grades, report cards, and communication with teachers. The full mode is the one that activates by default when logging in via the ENT from an external device.
Resolving common connection issues to Pronote Aurillac
The majority of the blocks encountered by families at Jules Ferry College do not come from Pronote but from the ENT itself. Here are the most common cases.
Forgotten username or password: the reset procedure is done on the ENT side, not on the Pronote side. The “Forgot Password” link on the ENT login page sends a reset email to the address associated with the account. If no address has been provided, you must contact the college’s administration.
The college’s phone number and postal address are displayed on the ENT homepage. Contacting the administration directly remains the fastest solution in case of persistent blockage, especially for families who have never activated their account.
Pronote mobile application and ENT synchronization
The Pronote mobile application (available on iOS and Android) works with the instance of Jules Ferry College, but the first connection requires going through the ENT via the phone’s browser. The application asks to scan a QR code generated from the Pronote web version.
- Log into Pronote via the ENT from the mobile browser.
- In the “Account” tab, generate a mobile login QR code.
- Open the Pronote application and scan this QR code to associate the device.
Once this step is completed, the mobile application no longer requests the ENT credentials. It stores a local authentication token. However, a change of ENT password invalidates this token, which requires repeating the QR code procedure.
Pronote features accessible to parents and students of Jules Ferry College
The Parents and Students areas of Jules Ferry College share a common base of features: consultation of grades, the homework diary, absences and tardiness, quarterly report cards, and internal messaging with teachers.
The Parents area additionally offers the possibility to consult school life observations and, for delegated parents, to send surveys or information to other families in the class. The Students area includes a function for submitting work online (file uploads or sending photos from the mobile application).
The Pronote agenda can be synchronized with a personal agenda (Google Calendar, Outlook) via an iCal link available in the account settings. This synchronization avoids the need to check Pronote daily for homework to be submitted.
Jules Ferry College in Aurillac, like the vast majority of institutions in Cantal listed with Index Éducation, uses a hosted Pronote instance. Therefore, updates to the platform are applied automatically by the publisher, without intervention from the institution. The currently deployed version is Pronote 2025.
