Yes, it's called ROR (Rougeole-Oreillons-Rubéole = Measles-Mumps-Rubella) and it's a standard vaccination here.

Not sure whether it's compulsory as such, but school will ask for it to be done as a condition of entry.

I think so. I looked it up when I had to immunise my DD and they do the MMR too

There's hardly any difference btw between the French and English vaccination schedule. The only difference is that things tend to happen a bit earlier/younger here than in England.

Optional vaccinations that are offered routinely are Hepatitis B; chickenpox vaccination also quite common.

BCG is no longer obligatory.
