Pupils at the college prepare for the Diplôme National du Brevet (DNB), the first level diploma in the French educational system. The examination tests the knowledge and skills acquired at the college and is taken at the end of Troisième (year 10). Preparing for the Brevet is also an opportunity to prepare students for subsequent exams such as the Baccalauréat. For more information on the Brevet :

Language pathways
Les familles peuvent choisir entre 3 parcours
- The classic section
- The German International Section
- The British International Section
Les cours de langues sont dispensés par groupes de progression.
Ces groupes permettent à chaque élève d’intégrer un groupe stimulant, quel que soit son niveau.
The International Section is a distinct group.
In this case the same pupils come together for history-geography and language & literature classes. Access to the International Section is subject to an admission test.
Personalised support
College pupils can benefit from help with their homework. These afterschool study sessions provide them with support in the subject(s) of their choice.
At the initiative of the educational team, tutoring or personalised support can be arranged during school hours.
French as a Foreign Language (FFL)
Pour les élèves dont la langue maternelle n’est pas le français et qui ont besoin d’un suivi personnalisé pour améliorer leurs compétences en français, nous proposons des cours de Français Langue Etrangère (FLE) de la 6ème à la 2nde
