The École normale supérieure (ENS Paris) is a grande école in Paris, France. It is one of the constituent members of Paris Sciences et Lettres University (PSL).[6] Due to its special historical role, large endowment, and influence within French society, the ENS is generally considered amongst the most prestigious amongst the grandes écoles. Its pupils are generally referred to as normaliens, while its alumni are generally referred to as archicubes. The school was founded in 1794 during the French Revolution, to provide homogeneous training of high-school teachers in France, but it later closed. The school was subsequently reestablished by Napoleon I as pensionnat normal from 1808 to 1822, before being recreated in 1826 and taking the name of École normale in 1830. When institutes for primary teachers training called écoles normales were created in 1845, the word supérieure (meaning upper) was added to form the current name. In 1936, the institution started providing university-level education.
