I have found the article.http://www.condorcet.com.au/en/studying-with-us/french-educa... which says it is chief education officer

As in footnote it is
Inspecteur d'académie

And article says chief education officer, the director of regional services for the Department of Education.

Regional? My understanding is that the "inspecteur" covers a "département" whereas the "recteur" is in charge of the "académie" which more or less covers a region - although these do not correspond exactly to the political regions.
