Questions

How many Portuguese-speaking schools are there in France?
We list 17, in 4 cities. That is the number whose working language we can trace to a published source, not the number that exists.
Which city has the most?
Paris, with 10 of the 17.
Is Portuguese unusual for schools in France?
9% of the 200 schools we hold in France are recorded as teaching in Portuguese. Each source records a language for its own reasons, so the figure reflects who publishes that information, not only who speaks what.
