The school forms part of a grouped school structure with the neighbouring communes of Liorac and St Félix de Villadeix. Clermont de Beauregard and St Marcel du Périgord adhere to the same pedagogic group.
The Montclar school has two classes, infants and Cours préparatoire.
The school head, Mme Sylvette Gondonneau teaches the infants, assisted by Mme Laurette Delarue, and Mme Anne Laure BIGA teaches the older children. Canteen meals are prepared by Mme Isabelle Filet. The school has an out-of -school hours crèche (7h-9h & 16h30-19h), surveillance is assured by Mrs Caroline Vandaele.

     

The mayor and local council - always keen to make improvements to the village - have implemented several projects :
• Electricity (EDF)and telephone lines have been put underground in the town of Montclar and the hamlet of Saint Georges, La Bessaronnie and Pata.
• Public lighting: The second phase in the town of Montclar is finished
• The village hall has been renovated and modernised and is available for cultural and festive organisations.

A former bakery has been restored and brought up to the strict hygiene standards required by the food industry and is now back in business - not without much emotion and a few tears from the older members of the community.
The bakery, called ‘La Tourte de Montclar’ produces bread of such a high quality that its reputation has already crossed the département’s boundaries.

The Church of St Georges's hamlet, with its Rita chapel
has been re-roofed meaning that the 11th century, Romanesque building no longer leaks. The church façade is improved by appropriate public lighting.

A building to be used by the village’s associations which serve for meetings, exhibitions, children’s workshops etc. was renovated by a group belonging to the S.AG.E.S 24 reinsertion programme.
