Pre-registrations for 2026/2027
After acquiring the common core of knowledge, skills and culture, students continue their education at high school, where over three years they prepare for the general or technological baccalauréat, as well as for their progression to higher education.
This demanding and formative cycle engages the entire educational community in providing individualised support for each student. Our teaching and educational teams ensure that every student is supported in shaping their pathway, taking into account their aspirations, needs and potential.
The fundamental objective is to enable every high school student to achieve their full potential. This is reflected in the close attention paid to each individual, the implementation of support or enrichment measures, and the promotion of initiatives such as interdisciplinary projects, cultural or scientific encounters, collective experiences and educational trips, which enrich our students’ education and nurture their ambitions.
