FS MIDDLE SCHOOL
Progressing to lower secondary is a significant step. Students need to adjust to a new setup in terms of timing and location, with a timetable, room changes and one teacher per subject, sometimes with differing expectations. The pace of work is also faster than in primary and students need to become increasingly independent.
​
In middle school, all subjects taught (French, Mathematics, Modern Languages, History, Geography and Citizenship, Sciences, Music, Art and Physical Education) draw on a common foundation of knowledge, skills and culture.
​
Students complete lower secondary education by taking the French DNB exam (Diplôme National du Brevet).
Students can choose from several English pathways
