This supplement is not related to education, and does not apply to children still in the home. It's added to the pension of empty-nesters who, prior to retirement, had three or more minor children in their care for nine years or more.

"Depuis le 1er janvier 1999, date de la mise en place du régime unique ARRCO, la retraite ARRCO est majorée de : [...] 5 % pour 3 enfants élevés ou plus. La majoration pour enfant élevé intervient dès lors que plus aucun enfant n’est à charge. Un enfant est considéré comme élevé, s’il a été élevé pendant 9 ans avant ses 16 ans à la date d'effet de la retraite."

There seems to be some variation on the age limite – 16 here, 20 in my previous reference – but I don't think that would affect the translation.

if the distinction here (and one we use in the UK) might be between "dependent children" (i.e. up to the age of 18) and older children who are still in full-time education and therefore the parents are still entitled to benefits and/or tax allowances.

"Children raised" is the most appropriate term that I found used on the Internet. BTW, I'm from the USA, but the Cairn article cited on my Answer seems to use BE spellings (e.g., "labour").

Here are some other sources:
• From France, "Increase for raising children"
http://www.cleiss.fr/docs/regimes/regime_france/an_3.html
• From the USA, "Child-rearing supplement"
http://www.ssa.gov/policy/docs/progdesc/ssptw/2010-2011/euro...
– although these terms might be confused with children currently being raised.

How would you re-phrase it? "children raised" sounds a little ambiguous (and a little too USA) to my ears

Perhaps reconsider, since the grant is only for children who were dependent children, not for those who were non-dependents:

"La majoration de pension pour enfants élevés est attribuée aux agents ayant eu à leur charge au moins trois enfants pendant 9 ans avant leur vingtième anniversaire."

You're welcome for any help I may have provided. :-)
