Foundations for success.
Secondary school
The middle school years are decisive years that focus on consolidating and deepening prior learning. We are committed to offering integrated multilingualism, individualized pathways and personalized support. We promote autonomy, critical thinking, and student development, paying attention to both the transition from Primary School to Middle School (6ème and 5ème) and from Middle School to High School (4ème and 3ème).
Collège includes cycle 3 (6ème) and cycle 4:
- 6ème (11-12 years old): Adapt and get organized
- 5ème (12-13 years old): Consolidate and explore
- 4ème (13-14 years old): Taking it further and analyze
- 3ème (14-15 years old): Open up and move forward towards High School
EXPANDED INTERNATIONAL OFFER STARTING FROM MIDDLE SCHOOL
In continuation of their elementary education, our middle school students sustain instruction in English, enabling them to reach level B2 (advanced level). Students who also wish to prepare for the Terza Media diploma benefit from tailored schedules. In Grade 9, we offer to students who wish to make a smooth transition to the International Baccalaureate (IB), a pre-IB program in English. It includes key disciplines such as English language and literature, arts, technology, mathematics, and sciences.

It brings together all the knowledge, skills, values and attitudes required to achieve academic success, succeed as an individual and a future citizen.
